How many pairs of classic ballerina flats do you own? We’re not insulting the timeless and very French style. We just want you to realize that there are other options. And we don’t mean heels. Different details are what keep things fresh and inspire shoe lust. When it comes to Spring 2019, slingback flats are one of the most popular, easy-to-walk-in styles that have captivated us.

Slingback flats’ popularity comes after kitten heel slingbacks and mules have been some of the trendiest shoe styles in recent seasons. Slingback flats are a terrific option when we want to show a bit more skin, but it’s too early for sandal season. A slingback style shows a hint more foot than ballet flats. Furthermore, there’s no need to worry about freshly polished toes. (Just make sure heels are at their best with a foot mask or scrub.) Styling-wise, ensure that the slingback is clearly visible with cropped pants, midi skirts or shorter dresses because the strap is the star.
These 18 pretty slingback flats manage to be trendy and timeless.
