Flats and Sandals You Will Adore
Any woman who has her podiatrist on speed-dial can rest easy this spring, thanks to a bevy of flats that are as glamorous and eye-catching as any strappy stiletto.
Super Glossy
To buy: Mossimo ‘Veronika’ ankle strap flats
Saddle Brown meets juicy watermelon in these lovely ankle-strap flats. Wear them with billowy shorts, tapered pants or rolled-up boyfriend jeans.
Snake Charmer
To buy: BC Footwear ‘Up All Night’ flat
Gleaming snakeskin meets chic chartreuse in these slip-on. The unusual combo makes them perfect for working and dancing.
Ankle Bracelet
To buy: Tildon ‘Anya’ flat
Chunky gold chain link is the perfect contrast to a bare, streamlined silhouette — just the right shoe for an urban warrior princess.
Step Lightly
To buy: Lucky Brand ‘Abbee’ flat
This is what warm-weather fashion is all about: dreamy colors, simple shapes and fresh styling — like a chambray shirt for your feet.
In Stitches
To buy: Crochet sneaker
Add easygoing, sweet-tea-drinking femininity to any outfit with these crochet skimmers.
Vamp it Up
To buy: Blowfish
Certain proof that flats can be as sexy as heels — note the creme color, tactile texture and plunging vamp. (Just don’t kill the mood and call it “toe cleavage.”)
Très Chic
To buy: ModCloth ‘Flat’s a Wrap’ shoes
Everything about these cutaway flats is elegant, from the pleated vamps to the cloud-like print. We’re planning to pair them with slim dark skinny jeans, classic cardigans, and deco-inspired jewelry.
Up in Smoke
To buy: Loafer
Smoking loafers make us feel like we’re playing cards with the men of Downton, even if we’re just lounging on the sofa conquering Candy Crush.
At the Haberdash
To buy: Dancing flat
Combine these dapper flats with equally crisp pieces, like a shrunken blazer or broadcloth shirt.
Jungle Fever
To buy: Tasmin flat
Something is freeing about spring’s wide-open color choices. Leaf-print flats in lime and Kelly green? Don’t mind if we do.
