    For a great statement summer sandal for SS15, these three sandals are my ultimate favourite.

    This monochrome Sophia Webster sandal is all you need to give an outfit a fun twist. You could wear it with anything from skinny jeans to cropped jeans to a pencil skirt to a floaty, summery dress. The heel is not too high and is a wearable height for daytime. I tend to wear a lot of monochrome; this is the perfect way to make my outfit look contemporary.

    This Zara sandal is fabulous due to its ocean-hued colours that go equally well with monochrome or clashed with a print. The lace-up detail at the front of the shoe is very chic and offers support. It's also a great choice if you are going for the whole double denim look.

    This Gianvito Rossi shoe is already in my wardrobe. It's the perfect shoe for running around town and to do a day-to-night eveningwear look. It has a nod to the gladiator sandal and does not look too bare, as all the laces give it depth. I also love the small block heel. I have been wearing mine with my white denim pencil skirts.
