Flat out Fabulous

From work, to the park, to a relaxing night out with the girls. Staying put together on long days seems impossible, but it’s much more simple than you think. Your shoe can make or break your outfit, really! I must admit, as much as I love a sexy high heel the reality is a stylish flat is the right choice for daily use. If you have a bunion (like myself) you will  need a shoe that will keep your outfit looking impeccable and one that won’t hurt your feet after a few blocks.

Unless you are going to the gym, I say, let go of the tennis shoes and super chunky shoes that weigh down your look and find a flat with support, style, and flair!

I have three suggestions below to inspire you to try new colors and designs, try a new style than the one you normally pick up for yourself.

The weekend shoe



Fossil Ella $79 at Piperlime


Treat yourself to a pedi with a bright summer color and show off your toes. This shoe can be worn with rolled up jeans, khaki skirts paired with your fav stripped tee, or colorful tops.


Made to last



Frye Emma Ballet $177.95 at Nordstrom


This shoe is inspired by the Mexican huarache sandal which was originally hand woven and made to last 15 - 20 years! This modern flat is a beautiful addition to your wardrobe if your style consists of boxy tees, boho tops, feathered earrings, and handbags with fringe these are for you!


For the love of quality



Cece leather and canvas ballet flat $128 at J Crew


Not only is this a classic style, it has a great color to add to your transitional pieces. You can wear neutrals from head to toe and add color with a belt, scarf, jewelry, or SHOE. Embrace the the bold prints and colors this season. By the way if you love quality, these are made in Italy, so hard to find in department stores these days.
