Ballet Flats Abound

After some careful observation we couldn’t help but notice that ballet flats are in and heels are...out? Maybe not out, but they certainly don’t seem to be the focus of this fashion season. We thought it would be a good idea to get out ahead of this trend and share with you some of our favorite pairs of flats you might want to shop for your wardrobe this fall.

Ballet flats, in our opinion, are the most underrated shoe in the game. They’re not known for flattering your legs or your butt like heels are always praised to be. They’re not used for sports or any activity in particular but we think that the French were on to something when they made these shoes their chic staple shoe. Flats come in so many different styles, colors and materials and hello, they are comfy as hell. They’re chic, sophisticated and there’s a pair of flats for every outfit and every woman.

Here are our top five favorite heels of the moment, but don’t be surprised if we come back with a part two as we’re sure this fall/winter is going to prove to be the season for ballet flats.

These Adriana Degreas knotted mules come in white, silver and gold and are a fun remix on the classic ballet flat. With a pointed toe, front knot and leather material these flats are great to wear for a day of running errands, lunch, dinner and even the beach.

Maia Flat

These pointed toe flats are crafted in Italy from nappa with a grosgrain trip and gold accented heel. They’re sophisticated, chic and functional with a flair for the feminine. We like these flats for work because they’re comfortable and stylish and look great with every outfit you can think of.

Amal Flat

These Amal Flats from Aquazzura are, in a word, sweet. These are the ultimate feminine, soft girl, trips to the florist type of ballet flats. With a comfortable mesh cutout and soft velvet lining, these flats are glamorous but in an understated fashion. We picture these styled with mid-length skirts and cashmere cardigans.

Loafer Flats

Yes, loafers are considered flats! These Steve Madden Loafer Flats are 100% leather with a pointed toe and are great if you’re building a capsule wardrobe because they will literally go with anything you own and are great for building outfits from. From work to play, these leather loafers ensure style as well as comfort.
