I'm a Fashion Editor Who Is Deeply Anti-Heels—37 Shoe Styles I'll Be Wearing Instead

While the impact of a great pair of heels on an outfit is undeniable, I find myself opting out of wearing the style these days. In place of heels, I’ve been all about various flatter shoe styles. If you’re like me, you’ve decided to lean into more comfortable styles because fashion does not have to be painful. As a fashion editor, I'm always on a mission to hunt down a wide array of gorgeous styles to add to my wardrobe, so I decided to clue you in on some of my favorite recent finds.
I’ve my journalistic sleuthing skills to comb through the online retail landscape and hunt down some seriously pretty flat shoes worth shopping for. Are you in need of a new pair of chic ballet flats or perhaps some cute mesh Mary Janes? What about a stunning new pair of loafers? Ahead, shop an array of non-heeled shoe styles worth adding to your daily shoe lineup.
I own these wide-fit loafers, and they've quickly become one of my go-to shoes.
These shoes are the perfect in-between for loafers and Mary-Jane flats.
Brown suede has been everywhere lately. These beauties will have no trouble finding a cool home.
These braided flats have a cool, casual vibe that'd go so well with street style looks.
