With summer (supposedly) right around the corner, if you're anything like us you'll be considering your upcoming warm-weather wardrobe.

The Hermès Oran sandal has been the must-have summer shoe amongst designer accessory enthusiasts over recent seasons. Having first dropped in 1997, the 27-year-old silhouette has a simple yet instantly-recognisable, distinctive design, with its ‘H’ logo strap stretching across the toes.

Known for her love of a timeless, fuss-free aesthetic, it's no surprise therefore that Meghan Markle is a fan of the Oran. Having been spotted previously in the sandal's tan and gold iteration, this weekend she was seen debuting a new pair in a pastel, blush pink.

Worn with a loose-fit blue button-down shirt, super relaxed white jeans and oversized sunglasses, Meghan's look worn during an afternoon in Palm Beach was giving all the summer inspo we needed.

We just can't decide whether we're more influenced to buy the sandals or head to Palm Beach… Come on England, time to dial up the sunshine.
