NOBODY loves wearing crazy high heels as much as I do... except maybe Lady Gaga, but sometimes it's just pragmatic to wear a pair of flats. Working and living in NYC, you are constantly on your feet, going from your apartment, to the office, to dinner and everywhere in between. Doing this in 5 inchers is just not going to happen-- everyday. I am NOT a supporter of ballet flats. I think they are way too prissy and well, flat. I think they make my already short legs look even shorter, yes it's possible! Finding a stylish pair of flats that will work with your fashion forward ensemble is hard, and I have heard this complaint from so many of my gals. Low and behold, I have done the research for all you "practical" on-the-go women who need comfort once in a while... And maybe, like myself, just don't want your feet to fall off before you turn 30! So.... Here it is! The TOP 4 flats I have found for Fall- one of which is already in my closet.
| Chelsea Room |
I bought these black pointy-toe flats from a boutique shoe store on 7th Ave. They are made by Chelsea Crew. They make amazing shoes and saved my day as I was on the hunt for a pair of flats that I didn't think were... GROSS! I fell in love! These little shoes are so sophisticated! They look great with skinny jeans, and dresses as well. Whether you work in finance, or fashion... these shoes are appropriate. And, if you happen to be one of those people who dares to go out at night in flats, these are perfect for that as well. I'm NOT one of those people.
| Sam Edelman |
A big trend I'm seeing for this fall is loafers, and I absolutely love it! You have to find the right pair, but they are absolutely adorable and incredibly chic. These Sam Edelman ones are my personal faves. They come in a few different colors and they are great for shopping, work, or dinner. I would totally pair these with a pair of dark skinny jeans, a printed tank, and a blazer. These would also KILL with a pair of tailored shorts, and a flowy top. Get yourself a pair!
| Jeffrey Campbell |
These Jeffrey Campbell leopard loafers are just plain cute. YES, the leopard is dragging me in this season! Something about these little shoes has me in love. Black skinny pants and a black top? DONE.

And lastly... these little Jeffrey Campbell treasures. I found these and thought they were the perfect transition shoe. These would go perf with a little dress and sweater, day or night. Plus, Jeffrey can do no wrong in my eyes. These little flats are so fresh and new and totally unique. It's time to get rid of the Oxfords. I don't care if they're still selling in stores. Let's shake it up and try something new this fall!
The thing I love mostly about all these shoes, is they do give you a baby heel, so you don't feel soooo flat. Us shorties will take any lift we can get! And these are all under $100! Cause let's be honest... who actually wants to spend money on FLATS?!
