When it comes to fashion choices, while many people are inclined to take risks and try new things, I would be lying if I didn’t admit that I have more of a tendency to align with the saying, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Sure, I update my wardrobe seasonally and buy into trends when I see fit, but more often than not, I like to rely on tried-and-true brands, outfits, and even specific items rather than leaving things to chance with something new.

If you can relate—and even if you can’t—I think you’ll be thrilled about the latest pair of flats in our Who What Wear collection for Target (conveniently pictured above). Why? Because we’ve taken the flat-mule silhouette our shoppers have loved season after season and simply updated it in an of-the-moment raffia material and color that’s perfect for the months ahead. They're so good, in fact, that despite my personal feelings on flats (which you can read more about here), I’m inclined to make them one of my few exceptions. To see what all the hype is about and shop the shoes for yourself, just keep scrolling.

The original brown mock-croc version of these mules was a staple in Who What Wear editor Kristen's spring and summer wardrobe last year.

When we came out with them in black earlier this year, fashion girls were quick to stock up.

This season's raffia style is the perfect neutral flat for every spring and summer outfit.

Editor-at-Large

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2024, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
