FINDING the perfect summer shoe can be tricky, especially if you want something that will be comfortable all day long in the heat.
But Marks and Spencer shoppers claim to have found just that in the Wide Fit Ankle Strap Block Heel Sandals.

Available in three colours – platinum, tan and black – the sandals have a small heel to dress up any outfit, while still remaining comfortable for long days out.
Better yet, the sandals are available in sizes 3 to 8, with half sizes available for all to ensure you can get the perfect fit.
The timeless sandals are crafted from leather and designed in a wide fit style so you don’t have to worry about your feet being uncomfortable.
“These elegant sandals make the perfect choice when the temperature starts to rise,” Marks & Spencer bosses said.
“Crafted from premium leather in a wide fit to create an extra comfortable feel.
“Stylish low block heel, with a secure buckle fastening on the ankle strap.”
It’s no surprise the stylish sandals already have an average rating of 4.5 out of five stars online, with shoppers urging others to try them out.
One said: “I got the black ones. They fit really well and I love the way it looks on. It’s pretty comfortable and I like the adjustable buckle it has.”
A second also loved the shoes and said “I bought these last year in tan, had doubts at first about comfort but after wearing them for about 12 hours when at a wedding in hot Spain I changed my mind.
“Nice height heel, I can’t wear flat shoes now, so they felt a little more dressed up.”
And someone else noted: “Was hoping that they would come back into stock, I immediately bought a pair in platinum when they did and they feel just as comfortable. Thank you M&S.”
Meanwhile, someone else raved about the shoes and wrote: “The perfect nude coloured comfy sandal.
“I have a small obsession with the perfect nude leather sandal and have about 10 pairs – these are my absolute favourite!”
The stylish shoes aren’t the only reason to dash to the retailer right now though, there are plenty of summer wardrobe staples too.
The gorgeous Linen Rich Maxi A-Line Skirt can be dressed up or down, making it a staple for spring and summer – and the best part is it’s only £35.
Not only that, but the popular skirt comes in two trendy colours, black and tomato, so there’s something for everyone.
Available in petite, regular and long, the skirt is crafted from a lined-blend fabric, making it perfect for keeping cool in the warm weather.
“It’s cut in a flattering A-line shape, with a flowing maxi-length hem. Shirring on the waistband adds pretty detail and ensures a comfortable wear,” Marks & Spencer bosses said.
So, it’s no surprise the skirt has an impressive average rating of 4.6 out of a possible five stars.
How to look chic on a budget
Fashion stylist Gemma Rose Breger, and beauty journalist Samantha Silver revealed how you can make your outfits elevated without spending hundreds of pounds.
- Don’t ever spend on designer denim: River Island ”always has such a great selection of fashion-forward jeans that follow the current trends”. The high street retailer offers a great range of sizes to fit UK 6 – UK 18, and three leg lengths – and prices start from an affordable £25.
- There are no rules for jewels: ”Pick up something at a car boot sale, or charity shop, scroll on Vinted & eBay, snap up something from the clothing section in your local supermarket when doing the food shop or check out high street clothing stores.”
- Don’t forget the pre-loved sites: With a rising number of second-hand sites, such as Vinted and Depop, there’s no excuse for not buying – or selling – pre-loved garments. Gemma, for instance, has managed to get her hands on chic Chanel sunnies for a mere £17.
