Okay, These Flat and Low-Heel Shoes From Nordstrom, Mango, and Zara Are Fire
When it comes to my daily footwear, I've always preferred flats or low-heel shoes. Not that I have anything against high-heels, but considering I'm a born-and-bred California girl, the ease and comfort of flat and low-heel shoes just seems to agree with me on a fundamental level. High heels, in my humble opinion, are to be reserved for special occasions or a night when I'm feeling extra flirty. The numerous stylish flats offerings and resurgence of kitten heels in recent years (I'm looking at you, Manolo Maysales) have only helped my case.
On top of that, the right flats or low-heel shoes have an understated elegance that's hard for a higher heel to compete with. I'll never forget seeing a woman walk into a wedding in a breezy floor-length gown with simple sandals on her feet and thinking that she was the chicest person in the room. Suffice to say, I've done a lot of research recently on the best flats and low heels out there. My biggest issue? Putting a cap on my finds, which Nordstrom, Zara, and Mango aren't helping with. They've really been killing it with their selections of flats and low-heel shoes, so I've rounded up my favorite 30 picks just for you, dear reader, below.
Metallic accents are everywhere this season, but I'm partial to strappy silver sandals.
The chocolate brown paired with the lug sole has me feeling all the feels. They're perfect.
Simple flats at a reasonable price that look more expensive than they are used to be hard to find, but then these babies showed up.
In case you couldn't get your hands on the Miu Miu version, these are a decidedly good dupe!
Pair these with some vintage jeans and a white tee and you've got the quintessential summer look.
These are, of course, reminiscent of Gucci, but in a subtle way that I think really works.
