Let’s change Polina Gagarina’s hit and state: there are no more rules! After all, no one can forbid you to wear boots in the summer (in the West, this is, by the way, a super-popular feature), and add slippers to your summer suit. 

Moreover, this season, recognized fashion icons have already done so – for example, Kendall Jenner and Hailey Bieber. Ready to recreate their looks?

Street styles of American stars we can distinguish from filming in any other country, even if we take a quick look at them. Attention to the feet – fashionista in the States in the summer almost never take off their favorite slippers. How often they wear these shoes can only be compared with the obsession with ugg boots in winter, spring, and autumn – celebrities and just fashionistas wear them with everything from pajama pants to shorts. But summer is flip-flop territory. Angelina Jolie walks around malls in a floor-length dress and flip-flops, Kendall Jenner walks around the neighborhood in house pants and flip-flops (again), and her friend Hailey Bieber puts on the same flip-flops on a date with her star husband.

Simply put, the wardrobe of American divas simply does not exist without these comfortable shoes, although this fashion has not yet reached us in full. Slippers remain an element of a beach holiday, at most a simple solution for a vacation when after swimming you need to go to the nearest cafe. But one variety of slippers – flip-flops – has every chance to win over the Russian fashionista. All the ingredients for success are there: comfort, minimalistic design, which is especially revered today, a wide color palette, and solid material – leather. 

Thanks to their dense texture, flip-flops are not perceived as an attribute of Sochi adventures – on the contrary, they are almost indistinguishable from, say, leather sandals that you could wear to work (if you have a free dress code, of course). And if you choose a model in black, flip-flops will not change your casual look at all, but in hot weather, they will become your best friends. 

If leather flip-flops do not surprise you, then feel free to try on more daring models. Maybe you like the options, as in Prada – glossy and spectacular, or maybe you are a supporter of wedge slippers, like Kendall Jenner? The choice is huge!
