Every Spring Shoe You Need in Your Closet Can Be Found at Nordstrom

I find the mule to be the most useful shoe ever created. It combines the ease of a flip-flop (just slide it on!) with the sophistication of a chic flat. I have been waiting MONTHS for Something Navy's Portia buckle mule ($89.95) to hit stores. I love the colorful beading on the buckle and pointy toe.

Go ahead and expose your toes! Animal print shoes will be all the rage this Spring, thanks to looks we saw walk the runway. Find a pair like these cutout sandals ($52) that have the just the right amount of exposure as the days get warmer.

Retro kicks are a must-have — specifically any Nike pair with a bouncy, exposed air sole — but try taking things to the next level with fun patterns. This pair of Nike Air Max 97 sneakers ($170) are wrapped in a gorgeous floral pattern for a fresh twist.

Lucite accents are back in a big way, and these strappy slides ($209.95) give off the "naked" effect for long legs. Dress 'em up or down, you can pair this graphic black-and-white combo with anything.

Meet the new "ugly shoes" of 2019! Chunky heels and Velcro straps make these platform sandals ($89.95) fun and comfy. I particularly love the Americana vibe of this pair.

All things pastel is undeniably one of the biggest seasonal trends, and while a peach dress or mint sweater is great, a pastel sneaker is a more unexpected way to give your look a punch of color. I'm opting for these pink platform sneakers ($80) to tackle two trends in one.
