If you’re looking for a reliable, everyday sandal to throw-on and go, a flat gladiator style sandal is a great option - the straps and buckles keep the sandals practical and supportive enough to wear all day long, without compromising comfort.

No matter what your individual style is, find out which type of sandals will suit your personality best and make a killer, on-trend outfit with our wide range of summer clothing and footwear here at DLSB.
How To Style Flat Sandals

How To Style Chunky Sandals
A chunky sandal is a great summer alternative to a pair of heels and a simple way to dress up any outfit with a comfortable yet stylish footwear choice. Choose a pair of chunky white sandals to match with a colourful, floaty jumpsuit for a great outfit choice for an evening on holiday.

How To Style Sliders
There’s no need to compromise comfort for style this summer with a pair of ultra-cool sliders. A classic choice to throw on with any outfit, a pair of black sliders will last you all summer long. Sliders can be paired with almost any outfit, but we love to style them with a casual co-ord such as a matching shorts and relaxed shirt. Sliders create an easy-going look, ideal for throwing on for a chilled day at the beach or relaxing in the garden at home - no matter the occasion, sliders are a fool-proof option to complete any outfit.
