My own latest flats

Is a pair of Borneo flats from Dune, purchased from ASOS.

I'm generally not crazy about animal prints, but snake is okay, I think, and it works in small doses. So why not add it to your shoes?

Freida Pinto in classic black flats

(Something I wear almost daily during fall and spring, such a classic look!). Looks much more dressed up than flip flops, but is still comfy. I love how she has a black it bag to match as well.

Louboutin Crystal Encrusted flats

I just saw these on Ebay, and I love them!

Costing almost $1 400, they are really out of my price range at the moment though.

(I do have a pair of Louboutin heels, by the way, but no flats so far. Getting a pair of Louboutin flats really is very high on my wish list - and to do list! - though!)

Alaia Studded leather ballerina flats

I like studs, if they are added to high quality pieces in a nice way. One way of making studs look classy, but edgy is to add them to flats in a cool way.
I think it is done in a really great way on these Alaia Studded leather ballerina flats.


I actually do not own even one pair of Alaia shoes so far, but I certainly would not mind getting these at all. They are so cute!

Why a blog about flats?

One might wonder why I've decided to create a blog about flats. Well, I have seen that there are plenty of blogs about high heels, and while I love that look on others, I really love flats more myself.

You see, I live in a big city, where I walk a lot, take cabs and ride buses, and I always have tons of stuff to do, and not always enough time to go home to change my shoes. So I invest in high quality flats instead of in high heels, and they have become quite a signature look for me.

And while I know that high heels appeal to more people than flats do, I do think there must be other flat lovers out there as well. So this is my way of sharing the cutest flats I run into with others. So if you are a flat lover too, you are more than welcome to drop me a line!
