Building a Shoe Wardrobe: Part 2 The Ballet Flat





Anybody who knows me, knows how I adore a high heel. I can’t get enough of them. I used to wear them regardless of circumstances, even when my feet ached and I could barely walk. Now that I’ve gotten a little older and have a toddler, I gladly embrace stylish flats, and they have a very important part in any woman’s wardrobe. I encourage you to wear flats when appropriate—don’t end up in sneakers in desperation because you had to toss the heels. Rather feel free to wear stylish flats.
I would suggest investing in some well-made flats in neutral colors: black, browns, cream and even metallics, which I consider a neutral. From there you can branch out into vibrant colors with embellishments. But it’s always nice to know you have a basic black flat to pull out when you need it! If you’ve never tried Lanvin ballet flats, you simply must! Bridget Assil of Madison in Beverly Hills raved about Lanvin flats, and since I bought a pair from her, I have lived in them! They are the most comfortable flats I’ve ever worn! In my choices, I also included the Cole Haan Air Bria flat. I absolutely love them. They manage to combine the look of a ballet flat with a more athletic feel and the comfort of a sneaker! I’m ordering myself a pair!
Here are a few choices that I think would be a great addition to your wardrobe! Stay tuned for our next installment!
