Intricately-laced-up sandals and multi-buckle heels may be stylish and fun, but everyone needs a break from the constant bending over to fasten hardware and readjust complicated shoes. Thank God for the mule shoe, an easy slip-on heel that is as edgy as it is easy.

The mule comes in many forms: flat, heeled, open-toe, and so on. It's 2015's answer to the d'Orsay and it is a style that you should be wearing. The mule is perfect for almost any occasion; pair with rolled boyfriend jeans for an elevated casual look, or wear with a boxy shift dress on date night.

The mule is best when it's minimal and sleek, making it a perfect wardrobe staple to have in your arsenal.

These printed shoes are easy statement pieces that go well with simple summer dresses - let the shoes do the talking by pairing them with solid colors.
