Summer is edging ever closer, so now is a good time to start thinking about your sunny footwear options. Whether you're on the hunt for the most comfortable sandals, prefer simple flip flops, want something a little more fashion-forward, or like your kicks to be sporty, you are spoilt for choice when it comes to warm-weather styles right now.
Unsure about where to start? Don’t panic, as Jo Good has done all the hard work for you. The style presenter rounded up some of the very best buys during a fashion segment for This Morning earlier this week and ticked off some of the key trends, and hero buys that will get your feet ready for sunny season, all without the big spend.
The star’s edit covers some of the key spring/summer shoe trends for 2026 while being very wearable, and to make shopping even easier for you, we have rounded up some of her top picks below.

Jo explains: "These satin mules are usually the type of heel you'd wear as a wedding guest but they really work with jeans. The low V-front shows a hint of toe cleavage too."
Jo got very excited about these designer dupes and said "They look very similar to the Hermès sandals for £650, but these flats are just £19.99 - I just love them."
Jo said: "I really like this high street collaboration. The red colour, soft sole and thin cross bar looks great and works well with denim. They come in black too."
The presenter explained: "The classic boat shoe is a big look after being seen on the Miu Miu catwalk and shoes like these are now everywhere."
Jo spoke fondly about this pair: "The clog is a style I have revisited regularly since I was 18. This pair is a take on the Chloé style and the lightweight soles add a bit of height."
Prefer comfier footwear to run around in? The star declared that when it comes to the trainer trends for 2026, the "Floral dress and white trainer look is officially out and now it's all about colourful trainers like these."
We love all of Jo's picks, and as always, the presenter covered a wide range of styles to suit any summer capsule wardrobe nicely. It's hard to pick a favourite, but the fashion team at womanandhome.com really love the bright blue M&S heels. We can see them being a winner for a fancy party or to just add some fun to barrel leg jeans - and the low heel will keep any ouch moments at bay.
When investing in spring/summer shoes, think about what occasions you have coming up and the outfits you need to style with them. Try opting for shoes that will work for dressier and more casual moments to maximise on cost-per-wear, and when it comes to sporty styles, even though white trainers are technically out, they will come back into fashion as everything is cyclical, so hold onto your favourites, even if you are wearing colourful trainers right now.
