After enduring the rainiest spring Paris has seen since 1886, we can finally see the sunlight at the end of this (soggy) tunnel—and Parisians couldn’t be more excited for summer temperatures. Since these past few months of drizzles have allowed for only closed-toe shoes and water-repellent, springtime stompers, French girls have been quick to slip on their new summer footwear this warm, sunny week.

I Live in Paris, and These Are the 3 Summer Shoe Trends French Girls Are Wearing

Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. Sometimes, all you need to improve your day is a new pair of cool sneakers—more specifically, a new pair of Adidas walking shoes. It’s no secret that the brand’s bestselling Sambas (a Kendall Jenner favorite) and Gazelles, both stylish and comfortable, are a crowd favorite, and there’s no doubt you’ll see them everywhere when you take a stroll down the street. But given their cult status, these two styles typically sell out fast—and you’ll be lucky to snag a pair. That said, besides these two beloved styles, Adidas has plenty of models that are just as great for walking and all-day wear—which is why I set out to find the best of the best for you.

When it comes to the best shoes for standing all day, a shopper’s selection used to fall into one of two categories: the cute or the comfortable. Fortunately, shoe trends have drastically changed in the last decade or so. Not only has it become more acceptable, cool, even, to wear practical, sometimes “ugly” shoes (got to love the Wrong Shoe Theory) but brands are more focused on incorporating cushion, breathability, and support within their offerings. Our top overall pick is the Nike Court Legacy Lift which combines style, functionality, and arch support. But below, you'll find other expert recommendations for the most comfortable shoes for standing all day—according to podiatrists and stylish women with jobs that keep them on their feet.

Hello, summer! Hello, wedding season! And hello, inevitable hunt for comfortable heels. Don’t worry, that’s where the best espadrilles come in. Like fisherman sandals, espadrilles were a workers’ shoe that over centuries became a footwear staple. Originally from Spain, they’re marked by soles made of woven jute and finished with breathable materials like canvas and linen. In the 1970s, Yves Saint Laurent designed a wedge version of the traditionally flat shoe that helped the espadrille skyrocket further in popularity. The shoe is lightweight, shock-absorbent, and supportive enough to withstand long hours on your feet. Plus, they usually have rope-soles and ankle ties that beautifully draw attention to your white dress and tanned legs—truly, there’s no better sandal for warm weather.

If you’ve been checking in to our coverage over the past few weeks, you’ll know that there aren’t many bigger current series than what Nike is rolling out for the Olympics.

The idea of applying oil to your hair is off-putting. And despite being a beauty editor, I didn’t get around to using one until this year. That being said, once you try one there’s no going back. It’s such a small, quick, and easy step in your routine, but it can make a huge difference in the shine, health, and growth of your strands. Such is the case (at least, according to shoppers) with Rene Furterer’s 5 Sens Enhancing Hair Oil.

Picture this: It’s a sunny summer day and the temperature has already risen to 75 degrees by the time you wake up. The day’s forecast predicts 80-plus degrees until the sun sets, which might feel even higher with humidity levels. It’s a scenario most of us are familiar with, and one that brings to mind morning outfit conundrums that usually end up with 20-plus pieces on top of the bed and no idea what to wear.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.
