Hilary Duff and Mindy Kaling are making fisherman sandals the “it” shoe of summer 2023.

Both stars were recently spotted wearing this chunky retro pair from Prada. The How I Met Your Father star opted for the sandals in beige, which she styled with a white mini dress layered under a long, lightweight green coat for a casual stroll around Los Angeles. The Mindy Project star wore the black version with a pair of high-waisted jeans, a white puffy sleeve shirt, and white crossbody bag.

Their exact designer shoes cost a cool $850, but not to worry, there are tons of similar options that are way more affordable — prices start at $26.

The trendy platform shoes really are ideal for summer: Not only are they comfortable and cushy, but they also have plenty of airflow and will stay secure on your feet thanks to the buckle. You can style them with a T-shirt and jeans just as easily as you can with a midi dress or a pair of slacks. The statement shoe instantly adds a touch of personality to any outfit.
