Let’s take a moment to appreciate what street style has done for us. Has it given us a glimpse into what it’s like to walk among fashion’s in-crowd? Of course. Has it celebrated seriously stylish unknowns alongside professionally dressed celebrities, reminding us that fashion is for all? Sure. But we’re forgetting the one thing we should all be most grateful for: the comfortable, on-trend footwear we currently enjoy (and are starting to take for granted, if we’re being honest).

It hasn’t always been like this: Getting dressed up once meant enduring wobbly stilettos you couldn’t wait to kick off during your cab ride home. But as Sex and the City came to an end and street style started filling the void, we began celebrating the confident stride of comfortable footwear. Flats were elevated to new heights (pun intended), designers began to focus on sidewalk-friendly shoes, and spring became synonymous with chic slip-ons.

Wholesale Replica Bag iterations come in satin with lots of embellishments (pearls, jewels, tassels, and otherwise). Pool slides have been upgraded to pool party slides. Colors are trending toward bright hues as well as pure white, and everything feels like fun. Whatever the heel height, comfort is still key, so go ahead: Slide on into spring. Your feet will thank you.
