If you're a fashion lover, you might already know that platform sandals have been around for decades. In the '70s, they were all the rage, with disco queens and hippies alike rocking them with everything from bell bottoms to maxi dresses. In the '90s, they made a comeback (Spice Girls, anyone?), and now, they're back once again (probably to stay, but you can never know for sure).
But if you're not quite sure how to rock these statement shoes, don't worry. In this post, I'll be sharing 10 items you can mix and match with your platform sandals to look your best this summer. From flowy sundresses to denim shorts, there's something for everyone. And if you're feeling a little adventurous, why not try pairing your platforms with a bold patterned midi skirt or a pair of high-waisted culottes? The possibilities are endless!

I'm obsessed with this green croc leather shoulder bag! As bigger bags are making a comeback, I think it's appropiate to give this baby some attention. I would pair this with some nude, or brown, black or white platform sandals, and a toned down outfit to give this bag the maximum visibility. Some earthy colors like green could do the trick. I can imagine myself wearing it with a linen trouser and vest combo, topped off with a crochet hat. Thoughts?
