Packing ladies Clarks sandals into your case this summer could help to transform your holiday outfits.

Deciding which shoes to take away each year can be tricky, but a pair of ornate flat sandals has been suggested as a way to cover all eventualities.

The basics of holiday wear for many are a swimsuit and some "flash sandals", news source Hawk's Bay Today stated.

But if you are planning to do more than lounge by the pool, embellished flat sandals are put forwards as a way to provide some extra glam.

Since there is only limited space in a suitcase, there is no reason why you could not double up and use your decorative sandals on the beach too, which will make sure you turn heads for all the right reasons on your break.

And reminding travellers "you're not in the office now", the newspaper suggested trying hot colours, which means that the Pancake Fudge design from ladies Clarks sandals could perfectly tick all the boxes for summer footwear this year.
