My favorite It girls are sharing more pedicure inspiration this month than they have all year. I have 2026 sandal trends to thank for that. Fresh coats of polish are no longer hiding under high-vamp flats or sneakers. Instead, rising summer trends like heeled flip-flops and naked sandals are all the motivation I need to get to the salon.
Flaunting freshly-painted pedicures beneath the flip-flop trend was one of my favorite summer 2025 pastimes. Hailey Bieber must've known, because she revived her go-to thongs for round two this season. The only difference? The black leather kitten heels she wore nonstop last year now stretch a few inches higher.
