If you’ve fallen victim to the city heat, there’s nothing better than escaping to a Carribean island for that perfect summer weather. White sandy beaches, fruity libations and hotels with a view? We say yes to this kind of summer vacation. Choosing a destination is easy, but packing for it is a different story. Shoe junkies will overstuff their carry-on, but the truth is you only need five pairs to navigate your Carribean adventure.

Sperry Top Sider Angelfish Boat Shoes, $95
There’s just something so regal about this laidback kicks. If Jay-Z wears them (see: “On to the Next One”), so can we. Sperry is synonymous with top-siders, so we had to go with this brand. The Angelfish boat shoes leave breathing room and the crisp white color will match any of your beachy ensembles.
Steve Madden ‘Anteek’ Sandal, $69.95
These are for the end of the vacation after you’ve spent every night out in heels. Flats can be just as stylish as heels, especially when embellished like these aqua-colored Steve Madden sandals.
Bamboo Elmas-06 Flat Sandal, $15.95
Admit it- you run to Old Navy for the 2 for $5 flip-flop sandal. It’s time to upgrade, Vixens! Just because you’re walking on sand doesn’t mean your feet shouldn’t be adorned in some fly flip-flops. These Bamboo flats are adorable and comfortable.
Promise Quillan Yellow and Green High Heel Sandals, $35
Stilletos are a must when you’re stepping out. Whether you’re clubbing or going to a romantic dinner, heels will give you legs for days and upgrade any outfit. We love the bright colors on these high heel sandals!
Enzo Angiolini Espadrille Sandals, $44.50
Espadrilles are the perfect median shoe for vacay. They’re not as fancy as a heel, but they’re not as casual as a flat sandal. For some reason, the brown weaving in these wedges remind us of a breezy beach day.
