Olivia Purvis says you only need three pairs of sandals for your hols

Whether you’re exploring a new city or sipping cocktails by the pool, Clarks has upped the holiday sandal game with a new range of stylish wear-me-anywhere offerings. Olivia Purvis put her top picks to the test.

Look One

Day

I am a total lover of comfort when I’m holidaying, so having a sandal that not only looks good, but feels comfortable too wins serious kudos. For a day at the beach I’ve paired these sandals with a classic broderie anglaise sun dress for an effortless seaside look.

Night

Beach-side? Evening out? Get yourself some sandals that can do both! These look perfect teamed with blush florals thanks to their subtle rose-gold detailing. Or for a maxi dress, turn something more daytime into a look ready for an evening out.

Look Two

Day

If there’s one thing I always make sure to pack, it’s an easy smock dress. Whether you’re hopping to the pool or exploring the city, this dress is instantly dressed up for daytime with a pair of gladiators - which are as practical as they are cool (read: very).

Night

I’m not one to get hugely dressed up for an evening out, but having a fail-safe blouse you feel great in, as well as some light-washed jeans makes for the ultimate holiday look. Pair with some statement black lace-ups – these sandals will take you from tapas to taxi (to dancefloor), and there won’t be any shoe carrying on the way home.

Look Three

Day

For a day on my feet exploring the city, I always look for something lightweight and easy to throw on – which is where this Seventies-style blouse and camo sandals come in. Team with some denim cut-offs and you are good to go.

Night

The best way to add life to a simple monochrome outfit? It’s all in the detail, so pairing these sandals, with their subtle floral camo print, is the easiest way of elevating your look (without any added effort – ssh). Fuss-free coordination at its finest...

So, anyone for a summer holiday?
