As the first rays of spring sunshine peek through, we’re already daydreaming about our new season shoe collection. Sandals are a must-have for the warmer months, and with spring weddings and summer getaways on the horizon, it’s the perfect time to invest in a versatile pair that can be dressed up or down. Ugg’s latest drop couldn’t have come at a better time, with its brand new GoldenRise Sandals, priced at £130, landing on the UGG website this week. These beauties promise to be your go-to for all upcoming warm weather events, with their chunky platform and noughties-inspired adjustable straps making them a surefire head-turner for both formal and laid-back settings.

The moulded footbed adds an extra layer of comfort and support, making them a breeze to wear from dawn till dusk. Not only do the GoldenRise Sandals score high on comfort, but they also offer customisation options to switch up your style. They feature adjustable straps made from recycled polyester across the top of the foot for a snug fit, while the back straps can be tweaked for different looks. Opt for a long strap wrapped around your ankle for a balletcore-inspired vibe, or go for the shorter version for a classic slingback look. You can even strip it down for a sleek, minimalist look. The GoldenRise Sandals are available in three versatile hues – black, beige, and orange – and come in sizes 3 to 9.

The GoldenRise Sandals have just made their debut on the UGG website, so they’re yet to gather reviews, but we’re confident they’ll be a smash hit for the upcoming season. If you’re after a slightly less towering platform with a bit of an edge, Dr Martens’ Voss II Athena Leather Strap Platform Sandals make a fab alternative. Boasting a chunky flatform sole and leather straps that secure with adjustable buckles, these sandals strike the perfect balance between chic and trendy. Plus, they’re currently discounted from £120 to £84, with all sizes still up for grabs. For those who prefer a more classic style, Marks and Spencer’s Leather Crossover Ankle Strap Wedge Sandals are on offer for £59.50 and come in both black and tan, reports the Mirror. Featuring a traditional cork wedge heel, platform sole and crossover leather straps, they’re a timeless choice for weddings, holidays and everything in between.
