If you’re not naturally blessed with long legs and are shopping for summer, don’t worry. There are no limits to what everything We can wear, but when it comes to sandals, we have some tips and tricks if the goal is to lengthen your legs.

Shoes that lack straps around the ankles are always a solid detail to look out for, but if you want that extra support, be sure to look to thinner straps that don’t cut into the leg. Higher heels will always make your legs look longer, but if you’re not comfortable with height, there are plenty of ways to nail that supermodel aesthetic. With that in mind, we’ve rounded up a slew of sandals below that are sure to come in handy – read on to find out more!

These big rigs

Shoes with thicker elements like this pair can immediately make your leg look slimmer and look longer! We also love this style of plush mules – it’s beyond trendy.
