Switching up the wardrobe for each season is essential. However, staying in style can get costly! With this spring’s wardrobe essentials much different from last season, those of us on a budget have to sift through all the various styles for cost-efficient duds that will keep us on trend but won't empty our pockets. So what is a girl to do? Why, go on a bargain hunt, of course!

Check out our list of hot spring shoes under $50 and remain fashionable while staying economical.

Sandals:

The ever-popular gladiator sandals are back and we love this style from by Ellie that we found on Shoebuy.com for $47.95! Even better, metallic is huge for this spring so kill two birds with one stone by getting these hot gladiator sandals!

 

 

 

 

 

Another huge trend for sandals this spring/summer is the ankle and toe strap. We found this simple black leather pair at Old Navy for $24.94. We love these because they are minimalist, and clean looking and can really be worn for any occasion.

 

Heels:

Kitten heels are back and in a big, bold way. Neon pumps are a trend for spring, but we love that this style has also incorporated the pointed toe and the kitten heel that are both sure to be a hit this season. At H&M, these pumps are only $24.95 and if pink isn’t your color, check out the other colors and pick which best suits you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As we have seen around town, color blocking is huge not only in our clothing, but in our accessories and shoes as well! We love these sandals by Zara because they not only take a simple style to a whole new level of fashion-forward with their use of bright color blocking, but they are also only $49.90! This style looks fantastic with pants or skirts and creates the perfect, spring day-to-night statement look.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another look that is becoming popular is the woven straw. It’s a great warm weather texture, and has a lot of character to it. We love the design of these woven platform pumps from Steve Madden’s 'Madden Girl' collection. The colors are light and girly, and the design and retro style is right on trend. Find them online or at Steve Madden locations for only $49.95!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Flats:

 

Espadrilles are always a spring essential! However, this season they have come in the form of flats rather than wedges. We love these Pico Flat Espadrilles with their pop of color, retro pattern, and the fact that they are only $42.00! Find them at Shopbop.com

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Huarache woven leather shoes are always a classic vacation or beach look and they have made their way on the style list for this season. We love these because they are comfortable and easy to wear for multiple occasions. Throw them on with cut off shorts or wear them with a dress or capris- the versatility of the huarache is endless! Find them at DSW for $34.95

 

 

 

 

 

 

This season we are seeing a wide range of loafers; leather, canvas, even suede. These loafers are great because they are made of a light canvas fabric, making them easy to wear in warm weather. The light striped pattern also gives them extra style points. Find them at Urban Outfitters for $34.00
