If you're tired of suffering for the sake of fashion in the form of very sexy, very painful stilettos, we've got some great news for you: flats are having a moment [1].
Gone are the days of comfort vs. fashion in favor of a world where both are possible. (OK, cue the happy dance). After spotting some of our favorite industry insiders and celebs sans heels this past Fashion Month, we were more than inspired to add a few of those styles to our own wardrobes. So we scoured the Internet for the likes of metallic oxfords, embellished booties, and printed loafers and rounded up a few great pairs for you to shop below. Wait, do you hear that? It's our feet, breathing a sigh of relief.
