Whether you’re headed out for brunch or cocktails, the strappy mules by The Drop will be equally chic. The three asymmetrical straps are eye-catching but not too extra, so they’ll suit minimalists and maximalists alike. Likewise, the lime green shade pictured can go casual or dressy — you’ll be surprised how well it complements most other colors, including brights and neutrals — though you can always opt for black or white for a more understated effect. The square toe is so on-trend, and that 2.6-inch block heel has an architectural, ultra-thin width. What a welcome, fresh silhouette.

Enthusiastic review: “I don’t normally write reviews, but I ordered these shoes as a bridesmaid for my best friend’s wedding, and they were perfect. Extremely comfortable, nice gold color, and I couldn’t have been happier with this purchase. Had other bridesmaids saying they wish they brought them as well. Extremely happy with these shoes. [...] Highly recommend.”

Y2K-inspired platforms are everywhere right now, and these espadrille platforms by The Drop are the perfect way to take the trend into summer.

White is the ultimate summer neutral, though all five shades on offer are equally wearable. You’ll wear these versatile shoes with shorts, dresses, and even to that beach wedding you’ve got coming up.

Enthusiastic review: “Considering cost, comfort, and fit: these are my everyday go-to’s. The price was reasonable, while the level of comfort and quality was surprising.
