The sea is calling (from a conch, duh), and it’s asking you to pair these with your fave bikini ASAP.

I’m a resident writer on the BuzzFeed Shopping team covering a variety of topics in a fun and mindful way, including travel, home, beauty, gift guides, and anything that’ll add just a bit of whimsy into people’s lives.

Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.

I have amazing news for anyone who grew up watching Lizzie McGuire and sticking Lisa Frank stickers all over their locked diary: jelly shoes are back in a BIG way. And even better, now you have ~adult money~, and don't have to wait for your parents to buy you a pair! With so many brands jumping on the trend, choosing the perfect pair of jellies can get overwhelming, so we've rounded up some ah-dorable options at different price points to make it easier! From a cheery neon thong sandal just waiting for a beach day, a stylish Mary Jane comfy enough for sightseeing, and a super chunky pair giving major galactic energy (you'll see what I mean) — one of these is sure to make the child in you go "squeeee!" 

These casual jelly flip-flops are basically the Y2K version of the pair you're already throwing on every day. They've got a comfy, flexible structure and a nonslip outsole, but the true magic is in the way the cute jelly straps add unparalleled levels of whimsy and charm to the ol' shorts and tee combo. 🪄 

Promising review: "Bought these in May and have worn them every single day since (written in July). I wear them all over NY for HOURS. Comfortable, cute, stylish. They go with everything, and they fit great. The quality is thick, and I see them lasting a long time. The price point is great compared to others I’ve seen." —EB

Get them from Amazon for $19.99 (available in sizes 6–11 and seven colors). 

A pair of slip-on jelly flats with a breathable cork insole if your sweaty feet are getting nervous at the thought of slippin' and slidin' around in rubber shoes. Not only can cork help absorb moisture, but it also adds cushion that molds to your foot for extra comfort! Coupled with a spacious toe box that won't squish your tootsies, they're here to silence all the "jellies are so uncomfortable!" accusations. 

Promising review: "These jelly shoes are lightweight, comfortable, and easy to wear. The woven design is stylish and breathable, making them perfect for warm weather. They fit true to size and pair well with casual outfits, whether you’re running errands or heading to the beach. I’ve received several compliments on them and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a cute and comfortable summer shoe." —Tamchenelle

Get them from Amazon for $29.90 (available in sizes 5.5–11 and 12 colors). 

Some bright and cheery Gap jelly thong sandals because the sun is out, the birds are chirping, and it's time to embrace summer with some neons! Maximalists will be excited to hear these come in fun shades like blue and yellow, and speed walkers will be relieved to know the ankle strap and buckle closure will keep them nice and secure — no more hopping to retrieve a flip-flop that escaped your foot!

Promising review: "These sandals are soft and flexible. The color is so unique, and they look sleek and polished, even though they are casual sandals." —anonymous

Get them from Gap for $15 (originally $39.95; available in sizes 6–10 and eight colors). 

Some adjustable jelly slides that folks with wider feet are going to fall head over heels for, because they can be expanded for your perfect fit! They also have a squishy ~rebound foam~ insole you'll reach for on those long errand days. Just think of all the grocery shopping you'll do together — ahh, good times. 🥹

Promising review: "These sandals are very comfortable and look great. I get so many compliments when I wear them. I have wide feet and appreciate they are adjustable. I also have plantar fasciitis, and they are comfortable to wear and do not irritate my heel issues. I've worn them by the pool area and they do not slide on wet surface." —KM

Get them from Amazon for $35+ (available in 12 jelly styles and other opaque designs). 

Crocs Miami toe loop jelly sandals — yup, they jelly-fied the best-selling Miami loops, and they're somehow even cuter than before! Just like the OG (and, like, every other Croc ever), they're super comfy thanks to the flexible fit and foam footbed for cushioned support. Plus, they're sleek and chic, so when people inevitably swipe up on your story to ask where the HECK your cute shoes are from, they'll be shocked to find out they're Crocs!

Get them from Crocs for $44.99 (available in sizes 4–11 and three colors). 

Some adorable kitten heel jelly sandals that'll take you from lounging pool-side at the resort to your fancy dinner reservation. And no worries, they have a cushioned insole, non-slip outsole, and a shorter flared heel design (which feels more stable), so you can hit your best Elaine Benes moves on the dance floor, too!

Promising review: "These are perfect for summer! Super comfortable and perfect for resort wear and date nights. I walked a lot on our recent trip, and no blisters or pain. Quality was excellent, and I love the natural color because it goes with everything. Great value for your money!" —Amazon Customer

Get them from Amazon for $49.98 (available in sizes 6–11 and five colors). 

If these Melissa Possession fisherman jelly sandals look familiar, it's because they're *the* OG icon you probably begged your parents for circa 1990. This bubblegum-scented pair (yup, you read that right) has basically been perfected: It's ultra-flexible and spacious, has a cushioned insole with arch support, a secure adjustable strap, and comes in tons of cute colors. I feel like I'm meeting a celebrity right now. Oh, and FYI, you can match with your kiddo and make their jelly dreams come true. 

Promising review: "These Jellies are amazing and suuuper comfy! The nostalgia without the discomfort of the Jellies you remember. Takes me back to wearing them when I was a kid. Ya'll... I wore these at Disneyland and I'm pleasantly surprised to say that these babies are Disneyland tested and approved. No blisters and kept wearing them throughout my vacay. Took them to DC recently and wore them as I walked around all day sightseeing, they did amazing yet again. Highly recommend! Now I need them in all colors. Also, they smell amazing." —Kris

Get them from Amazon for $67.15+ (available in sizes 5–13 and 24 colors). 

Some classy André Assous Nabil jelly sandals for anyone who's HAD IT with boring office shoes. This elevated pair is crafted with smooth leather and has a low-profile wedge that'll pair *very* nicely with your work 'fits — plus, a cushioned insole that won't leave you limping. Say it with me, y'all: "We're no longer letting work take away our personality and joyful spirit!" 🗣️ 

Get them from André Assous for $79 (available in sizes 5–11 and four colors). 

The adjustable Sam Edelman Michaela jelly flats are the holy trinity of shoes: comfy, cute as a button, and versatile as all heck. Not only will you be rocking them to the beach and sights during your Euro-summer vacay (one reviewer wore them in Paris and reports no blisters, btw!), but they'll earn their permanent place in your closet when you see how well they pair with jeans, dresses, and everything else! Is it possible to become BFFs with your shoes?? 

Promising review: "My absolute favorite shoes ever! I seriously can’t believe how much I love these. I have worn them every single day since I bought them, lol. I work at a car dealership, I’m on my feet constantly, I’ve even gotten these wet, and they are so comfortable. I never wanna take them off. I will definitely be getting another color." —Christina Woodward

Get them from Amazon for $60.81+ (available in sizes 5–12 and seven colors). 

A pair of Naturalizer ankle strap jelly sandals, which are a little more understated if you don't want a brighter pair announcing you're jumping on the jelly train. These neutral beauties have a short block heel and sturdy outsole that'll protect you from feeling every pebble under your feet. They also have a sculpted footbed, foam cushioning, breathable lining, *and* arch and heel support! Okay, okay, shoes, I see you. 👏 

Promising review: "I’m not one to write reviews often, but this time was a must. These shoes are so comfortable and stylish. Quality is great. I wore them to work today and received many compliments. I suffer from plantar fasciitis and found enough support in the arch, plus I stand at work!!!" —Lori

Get them from Amazon for $99.91+ (available in sizes 5–12 and in brown and pink jelly styles). 

A limited-edition pair of Melissa X Dr. Scholl's Pescura jelly sandals — I can feel seven-year-old me taking over my body, and she's hitting "Complete Purchase" on these. They have the same contoured footbed and adjustable buckle that makes Dr. Scholl's slides feel oh-so-comfy, but in the *prettiest* jelly colorways! If anybody needs me, I'll be planning all my summer outfits so I can wear these as often as possible. 

Promising review: "Used to have a pair like these in the 90’s and these bring me back! Beautiful color, surprisingly comfortable, wearing them to the pool all summer and love that they are adjustable in case they stretch at all." —Dorie12

Get them from Nordstrom (available in sizes 5–10 and six colors) or from Urban Outfitters (available in sizes 6–10 and three colors — also available in three more colors here) for $129. 

Some stylish Vince Barcelona jelly sandals with a caged rubber design I'm envisioning as a pop of color with an easy-breezy linen outfit. Orrr they'd also look fab paired with a flowy dress, or some denim! So effortless... so chic... the possibilities are truly endless. And the fact that it has a soft leather footbed doesn't hurt, either!

Get them from Vince for $138.60 (originally $198; available in sizes 5–11 and nine colors). 

A pair of oh-so-dainty handmade Larroude Biarritz strappy sandals that are a gift to your eyes (so cute!), a gift to your feet (super comfy!), and a gift to your Instagram feed (will 100% show up in every summer photo dump!). Whether you go for the classy neutral shade or fun colorblock style, you'll get to enjoy all the wonders of a memory foam foot cushion and adjustable fit, and bask in compliments galore. 

Promising review: "I cannot say enough good things about these shoes! I bought these sandals last summer, and was unsure if they would be as functional as they are stylish. However, I can attest these shoes are AWESOME! They can easily be dressed up or down and are so comfy. From my college campus to my new life in London, they are a staple in my wardrobe. I walk long distances in them frequently and they have held up so well! 11/10 recommend buying!!" —Livy

Get them from Larroudé for $190 (available in sizes 5–11 and in an ivory or multicolor style). 

The Melissa X Deisel Quantum Platforms are for anyone who's dared to ask, "Hmm, I wonder how I can add some epic, futuristic alien energy to my outfits?" I know you're out there, and these have heard your call. You may not wear them every day, but when you do, the statement optical heel will add all the industrial, galactic energy you've been dreaming of. Oh, and they smell like bubblegum!

Promising review: "Had to get these due to that fabulously strange design. Happy to say, these fit perfectly (true to size) and are incredibly comfortable! Frankly thought they would be hard to walk in or at least a tiny bit uncomfortable - nope! The translucent design is so rad, and they truly go with any outfit. Definitely buy these if you've been eyeing them AND you're known to love freaky shoes." —Susan D.

Get it from Melissa for $189 (available in sizes 5–10 and five colors). 

A pair of Tory Burch Mary Jane jelly mules worth the price for the sheer number of times you'll be throwing them on. They have an effortless, low-slung silhouette that feels casual enough for jeans and errands, but also a short heel and dainty Mary Jane strap that makes it easy to dress these up, too! Don't be surprised if your other shoes start to get a little... jelly. 

Promising review: "These are the cutest TB ever! I have them in clear and red and I am ordering the other two colors. I have been wearing them on repeat! They go with everything and are super comfy! I have gotten so many compliments on them, too!" —mommabearx3

Get them from Amazon (available in sizes 5–11 and five colors) or from Nordstrom (available in sizes 5–11 and seven colors) for $200.
