Fun and Flirty Flats

Just snooping around looking for some flats to wear for this weekend, and of course for later use, but mainly for just walking around in, just something that is not my Uggs or my black boots. I never have luck with flats, either I can't find ones I like or the pattern is too busy/intricate for me but I have become more open and willing to try more fun and flirty flats. So in my search I have to say anthropologie.com has a great selection of really reasonable fun flats. Plus they have categorized their flats into "printed" and "solid" which makes it easy on finding exactly what you are looking for. Don't be fooled, even their solid flats are far from any plain jane flats. 

Below are some of my fabulous flat finds:
(1) Sidewinder Ballerinas ($78)
The color (which they claim to be silver) is totally neutral, but the snake-embossed patter definitely kicks this ballerina flat up a notch. Everyone needs a great pair of metallic flats, and I love, love, love the orange on the inside, such a great detail!

(2) Perfect Couple Skimmers (Orig. $298, Now $199)
Black flats are a definite must-have, and spending a little more on this wardrobe necessity is okay by me considering this staple will go a long way for your future. Trust me, these Cynthia Vincent black flats are perfect! The ruffle detail on the toe gives this shoe such a feminine look without going over board, and the shinny-er black leather gives the shoe an even more sophisticated look. Plus they are by Cynthia Vincent...um, hello, LOVE HER!

(3) Tory Burch Harrison in Tangerine Orange Leather (Orig. $250, Now $162)
Loafers are definitely another closet must-have, and these TB's aren't your ordinary loafer. While of course they come in all other colors of the rainbow I found these great orange ones on sale and ready to rock. They are a little springy, but the orange makes for such a great classic color, even I (boring mc-boring) thinks they are do able. I'm a Tory Burch advocate and I have to say I really impressed with these loafers. Also, I heard they are super comfortable, which of course is a priority.
