Now hear us out: Tying your sandals over your pants is seriously the hottest fashion trend right now
Every once in a while a fashion trend emerges that reminds us that certain garments and accessories can be worn in a whole new way. It happened with fanny packs when some celebrities such as Emily Ratajkowski stopped wearing them around their waists and started using them as front crossbody bags, bringing new versatility to the utilitarian staple. And now we’ve spotted street style influencers taking anchor pieces that we already have in our wardrobes – lace-up sandals and cute spring-summer pants – and combining them in a fresh new style: tying the shoe straps over the legs of the trousers.
Yes, rather than tying lace-up sandals around, well, your legs, fashionistas the world over are now wrapping the laces around their pants, just above the ankles. The result is fresh, fun and cool. Don’t believe us? Keep scrolling for 5 great takes and styling tips on how to rock the look like a true fashion influencer.

Try it with baggy pants
For some street stylers, the introduction of this new footwear trend also means adding oversize pants into the mix for a more striking contrast. The look is even more powerful if the pants are also long, resulting in an eye-catching balloon effect.
A taper-leg jumpsut
Alexandra Lapp is on board too, albeit in a less dramatic way, opting for slightly straighter legs on her jumpsuit. If you want to join the trend, a pair of slouchy pants or a jumpsuit will also do the trick.
Black pantsuit
Xenia Adonts shows that contrasting colors is one of the boldest ways to rock this fashion trend. In this case, a neutral-colored pantsuit will really pop with some fluorescent straps.
Oversized suit in a pretty pastel
Pastel tones also work with this new style. Influencers like Danielle Bernstein offer a more sweet and delicate take on this trend with softer colors, in this case combining beige sandals with a pastel orange pantsuit.
Leather trousers
This style not only depends on the cut and length of the pants but also the correct shoes. Sandals with a medium to high heel are much more stylish. You should also go for ballet-style ties, with long ribbons or laces that can be wrapped around multiple times, this way the pants will be held in place evenly.
This trend has slowly made its way around the fashionista tribe and has changed the way we’re looking at our strappy sandals for spring!
