One of our top picks, white is a bold choice, but is actually a tasteful alternative to black in the summer – and these will look appropriate with even your most floaty dresses.

Like the Isabel Marant pair, these have a foldable option so effectively you are getting a two-for-one deal. Just imagine the cost-per-wear saving!

An acceptable cross between a slipper and a loafer. The soft velvet means you can easily wear them in the evening too, to smarten up your most casual classics.

A great price point for a real leather loafer, they also come in navy with a pretty red trim, but we feel the black version will be more timeless and you’ll get more wear out of them. 

There is something quite punky about this Clergerie studded black pair. We think they’ll add a cool edge to even the most classic of outfits.

The loafer that started it all. If you are going to invest in the backless loafer trend, we cannot recommend these highly enough – choose from silk, printed canvas, even velvet and suede. However if you are looking for something long-lasting we would always go for a leather pair.

When it comes to finding gems on the high street, we always stick to the mantra ‘keep it simple’. This & Other Stories pair is well-crafted and fuss-free, so they look more expensive than they actually are.

We still love a rockstud, and we also love the delicate detail of these on a sturdy design. Also the slight heel will mean this loafer is likely to outlast most others, as it isn’t as close to the ground so is less likely to get damaged.
