It only started to feel warm in New York City in the last week or two, and my summer wardrobe has not caught up to speed. I can make do with transitional pieces hanging in my closet, but I'm worried about my shoe collection. My rotation is still filled with wintery styles, so I'm tracking down every major summer shoe trend on sale. I need to be prepared!

I found several pairs of affordable Adidas sneakers that It girls on the streets of New York are obsessed with, including Jennifer Lawrence's favorite Taekwondo style. Then I spotted plenty of comfortable, on-trend flat shoes, including glove flats, boat shoes, surprisingly chic flip-flops, and mesh flats. As if my shopping list wasn't long enough, I discovered a pair of mule sandals that excited me to get dressed up and go out again.

Keep scrolling for the complete rundown on my on-sale summer shoe shopping list. Whether you prefer a pair of trendy sneakers or stay true to heels, you're bound to find something fun (and under $150!) for the new season on this list.
