We're all for lusting after this season's It shoes, but when we look at what gets the most wear each summer, it's our unassuming, ask-nothing-in-return, probably-cost-$20, flip-flops. We slip them on when we don't want to give much thought to what we're wearing, we carry them in our bag for when our heels get painful, and we know they'll go anywhere, from city streets to wading into the water at the beach. Looking for a pair that's cute and low-key? Here's ten to score now.


We're a big fan of flip flops with heel straps, simple medallion embellishments, and solid pops of colour.
