From dressy to casual, I think you can make flat shoes work with any outfit for any occasion—mainly because there are so many incredible options these days. I used to always reach for heels whenever I had a special event on my calendar, but with the vast array of flat shoe styles to choose from, that's no longer the case. It explains why so many of the current "It" shoes are flats.
I think brands have finally realized that people want to be comfortable without sacrificing style. It's a pretty simple concept and a great explanation for why there are so many good flats to choose from lately. I've slowly started to shop for fall and realized I've only bought flat shoes thus far—no heels. Between all the cool mesh flats, loafers, Mary Janes, and elegant slingbacks, there's no lack of flat shoes to choose from and wear with everything this fall and beyond. Scroll to shop my favorites of each of the five flat shoe trends set to be popular this season.
