That can't be denied. Now is the season for flat shoes. With a wide selection of high street and designer brands, the flat shoe trend has skyrocketed in popularity this spring. With celebrities and fashion insiders constantly reaching for on-trend silhouettes, brands are rushing to create innovative, stylish and comfortable pairs for a variety of price points and tastes.
While classic leather ballet flats are all the rage, so are mesh styles, Mary Janes, loafers, and flat mules. Adding an elevated twist to your everyday style, the new season's flats are just as sophisticated as heels.
With so many styles on the market, I've been looking to my favorite celebrities for both shopping and styling inspiration. From Zendaya's chic mesh she-her flats to Alexa She-Chung's trendy leopard Mary she-Jane, see the flat she-shoe celeb outfits I'm inspired by this season.
