I'm 5'10" and an Expert in Finding the Best Flat Sandals—22 Pairs I Love

Everybody loves flat sandals, but I truly rely on them as a tall girl. They're my lifeline all summer when I want to look cute but stay practical. Don't get it twisted: I'm not saying that tall women should always be relegated to flats. I'm simply saying that they're often the most prudent choice when you're already taller than huge swaths of the population and don't want to stand out even further.

My height has made me an expert in finding flat sandals because I've spent hours upon hours looking for the best ones. I often find that the so-called "cutest" styles have heels, but I'm determined to not miss out on any cool trends just because I want flat shoes. Scroll down to shop the best flat sandals for women right now, from affordable flip-flops to designer leather sandals.

Associate Director, Fashion News

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
