Throwing out those tattered, salt-stained winter boots after the last snowfall has to be one of the most satisfying wardrobe purges of the year. It’s not quite that time yet (sigh), but while you anticipate that glorious moment to come, you'll need to get acquainted with the spring shoe staples celebrities are projecting for next season.
Cold weather really has a way of compromising a person’s style. Day after day, it’s the same formula: Jeans. Coat. Boots. Repeat. All that repetition can get a little... well, bland. When spring eventually arrives to save you from the maddening monotony of winter clothes, you’ll want to pair your inaugural pedicure with a cute pair of strappy shoes, so it’s a good thing your favorite celebrities have you covered in figuring out what’s on trend.
“For spring 2022 there are three shoe styles that you will see just about everywhere,” Zuajeiliy Romero, VP of styling at Wishi, tells TZR. “The platform sandal, the clog, and the slingback.” While these styles are not exactly new, Romero says there are going to be reiterations all over the place. “Clogs were big this past fall (Khaite and Hermès), and will be a must have this spring.”
You can also pull out all your timeless faves. “There will always be classics that just work for spring,” LA-based stylist Catlin Myers tells TZR. A pair of chucks, strappy sandals, combat boots, and chunky white styles will maintain their spring shoe staple status, too.
Ahead, 27 shoe styles to try immediately, according to celebrities.

These sandals are a beautiful hybrid of two trendy styles: “ugly” tourist shoes and sporty slides. The buckle doubles as a cute adornment and the means to keep your footwear snug and tight in place. And they’re just a forever comfy staple to keep around.
You can totally keep sporting boots all summer long if you wish. But for the slightly chillier temps of spring, opt for an over-the-knee pair to wear with your mini dresses and jumpsuits. This combo is always a yes for spring.
It's time to reintroduce Vans into your casual footwear lineup. Yes, these throwback kicks are back. Those skater jeans you just bought will thank you.
Brie Larson’s look shows that ballerina flats can be more than just cute. They’re a fit for rocker tees and pretty dresses all the same, and definitely a must-have for spring weather.
Spring is synonymous with color, and for all the trend-lovers out there, that means a whole lot of neon. Take the highlighter trend from the runway to your shoe collection with a set of strappy heels. Make like Ashley Graham and pair the look with an otherwise monochromatic ensemble.
It's all about the slouch nowadays, and there's no better way to keep your feet nice and cool in your boots. Make like Teigen and go for a mid-calf boot with a floral dress. A little bit of heel is always a welcomed addition, too.
Nobody is taking a break from their beloved black combat boots any time soon. And why should they? They go with everything and always make a statement.
Hudgens is all about fluffy sandals as outdoor footwear, and so are the designers. “Fur accents — both on slides and heel sandals — are a good spin on the transitional cold-to-warm-weather shoe,” Myers tells TZR. “Along with the casual style fur slide we’ve been seeing, [brands] like Altuzarra and Fendi showed strappy evening versions.”
You don't have to be a farmhand to go full country this spring. Make like Turner and elevate your denim with a pair of bold cowboy boots. Top it off with a cowboy hat and you’re ready for a day on the town.
