There seems to be a divide when it comes to footwear: Either you’re a low-heel or a high-heel type of person. But if there’s anything that will get us all on equal footing, it’s the 18 cute ballet flats ahead.
Sure, ballet flats tend to have a preppier quality that’s hit-or-miss for some, but the reason these pairs are so attractive is that they have differentiating details. Think playful ankle straps, sturdy buckles, mismatched patterns, and thoughtful bits of bling.
Don’t get us wrong—we’re not totally tossing our heels for a flats-only shoe closet, but we think they can harmoniously comingle. Click on for the best ballet flats on the market right now.
