Forget basic flats.

Spicing up your footwear collection for spring and summer isn’t just for the job of heels. Instead, keep the comfort of flats or wedge shoes and add some fun summer style by investing in some espadrilles.

For those that want a bit of a fashion history lesson, espadrilles are tied to Barcelona and the region of Catalonia and Basque Country, in present-day Spain. The name actually translates to the type of grass used to weave the sole of the shoe, esparto grass. While some are still made in Spain, you can buy these stylish shoes all over the world. Additionally, handbags and other accessories can be made of this material, and could be cute to pair with any of the shoes below.

To save you the mega bucks on a flight to Spain you can order these special shoes from a number of great retailers like Amazon, Draper James, J. Crew and more. Even better, they have options for all, including those with a wedge heel for some added height, platform espadrilles, traditional flats and in dozens of colors and patterns.
