    As we start transitioning into May, I’m on a mission to refresh my footwear collection. I'm swapping out my Chelsea boots, fur-lined slides, and even snow boots for warm-weather styles—like ballet flats, summer slides, and sandals. Don’t judge me; I'm still doing some spring cleaning. To kickstart my search, I'm perusing the sale at Sam Edelman.

    From now until Sunday, May 5, the iconic shoe brand is offering up to 30 percent off select items (plus an extra 15 percent off when you use the code “YAY15SEK”). After discovering the news of this sale, I immediately rushed to their sale page, which offers just about every shoe for all spring or summer occasions. From strappy sandals that you can slip into for a wedding ceremony to woven mules that are perfect for a beach vacation, you’ll find every trending spring shoe style you'll want to round out your footwear collection.

    Ahead, the shoes I'm buying, plus other fashion-editor-approved picks from Sam Edelman—all at an amazing 45 percent discount.

    Felicia Luxe Ballet Flat (Was $130)
    $95 AT SAM EDELMAN

    Yes, ballet flats are still trending. But instead of dabbling in typical pink, black, or beige hues, try exploring a new shade—like this glacial blue, which has become one of the top spring color trends of the year.

    Layla Sneaker

    Although Sam Edelman is widely recognized for their elevated ballet flats, loafers, and heels, the brand also knows a thing or two about making stylish sneakers. Take their Luna sneakers with a sporty-chic appeal that will work well with any relaxed outfit. For a day of lounging or running errands, team these shoes with a cozy hoodie and a stretchy pair of leggings,

    Christy Loafer

    $78 AT SAM EDELMAN

    I firmly believe that everyone should have at least one pair of loafers to compliment their work outfits. Sam Edelman’s slip-on style loafers are sleek enough to fit into a standard office dress code and comfortable enough to wear all day long (whether you’re commuting to work, running around from one meeting to another, or rushing to a business lunch).

    Cleo Slingback Flat

    In addition to loafers, you can never go wrong with flat slingbacks for a day in the office. This shoe is particularly dainty, with a pointed-toe silhouette, a sleek neutral shade, and subtle gold embellishments. Complete the look with a white button-down and beige trousers.

    Micah Mary Jane Flat

    According to Marie Claire’s fashion e-commerce editor, Julia Marzovilla, Sam Edelman’s Micah Mary Janes are beyond cozy. “I own them in black and can personally attest to how comfortable they are,” says Marzovilla. I’ve relied on them for my ten-plus-hour days, and they’ve held up with no aches or blisters.”

    Loraine Bit Loafer (Was $150)

    Opt for Sam Edelman's Loraine shoes for a summery spin on a standard leather loafer. These flats are woven with linen raffia, which makes them a great shoe choice for your next vacation and dining al fresco by the water.

    Judie Bit Mule (Was $130)

    The stunning silhouette of Sam Edelman’s Judie Bit mules immediately caught my attention. I love how the structured straps seamlessly flow into the rest of the shoe, and the pointed toe adds a sophisticated touch. I plan to use these chic flats to elevate my casual spring and summer outfits—which often include some variation of jeans and a breezy white top.

    Cami Lace Up Knit Sneaker

    As a city dweller, I walk nearly everywhere, literally. My average daily steps usually land in the six thousand range. I’ve worn out the soles of all my go-to sneakers, and I’m currently eyeing Sam Edelman’s knit lace-up style, with its foot-forming shape and a cushioned sole for extra comfort.

    Yaro Block Heel Sandal

    If you’re searching for a versatile heel to pair with practically any going-out outfit, look no further than these chunky, heeled black sandals. Pair these shoes with a floor-grazing maxi dress to add height or a mini skirt and a flowy blouse for a slightly '60s aesthetic.

    Bay Flora Slide Sandal

    Bay Flora Slide Sandal (Was $140)

    Add a pop of color to your wardrobe with the brand’s Flora slides. Covered in a delightful shade of pink and decorated with charming stitched flowers, these shoes will liven up your spring and summer outfits.

    Don’t let the dark brown hue of these Linnie Bit mules fool you; they’re very much meant for warm weather occasions. With an open-back silhouette, these airy flats are ideal for days when you want to slip into something simple.

    Poppy Jute Lace Up Sneaker

    Poppy Jute Lace Up Sneaker (Was $140)

    The Poppy Juit lace-up shoes aren’t your ordinary pair of sneakers—notice the espadrille soles, which give off a nice, nautical vibe. Amplify the maritime theme by styling these shoes with a blue-and-white striped shirt and a crisp pair of white linen shorts.

    I’m planning an upcoming getaway to Costa Rica, and plenty of vacation dinners are lined up on the calendar. I’m not in the mood to deal with the aches and pains that often come along with wearing stilettos, but I’d love to slip into a pair of comfortable heels. That’s when these raffia espadrilles come into play—they have a padded platform heel and a sturdy buckled closure that will keep me feeling snug and secure.

    $105 AT SAM EDELMAN

    From afar, you might assume that these pointed-toe heels are made of leather, but look closely, and you’ll see that they’re actually draped in a satin-like fabric. Style them with a slip dress to soften your look.
