With so many of us working from home right now, our high heels are getting a bit of a break. Hell, most of us aren’t even bothering to wear shoes at all. (No one on Zoom can see your feet anyway.) When we do slip on shoes, we tend to favor super stylish flats. Because comfort.
Since we’re past the midway point of summer, our focus is on flats we can wear now through September. And preferably once again once May 2021 rolls around. Pastel hues, breathable mesh fabric and open backs are just a few of the features we desire. That way we can flaunt them with everything from Bermuda shorts and tank tops to jeans and lightweight knits.
Another important element? Price. While we have been adding slightly pricey versions to our virtual carts, many of our top picks are actually pretty affordable. We’re talking as low as just under $18.
Scroll through the slideshow above for the most stylish flats of this season and beyond.
