Contemplating Flats at Zappos.com
In order to make it easier to tote around the city, I’m going to need to invest in a new pair of work flats. This won’t be too much of a problem since I practically live in flats. However, I need to buy a few functional pairs that are both comfortable and stylish. (Sorry, Target. Not this time.)
Still, I would love Fluevogs style on a Payless budget.
I headed over to the discount shoe mecca, Zappos.com, to see what I could find. Although I typically prefer pointy-toed flats for work, I found a few others that might not be bad. Here are some of my picks:
Frye Molly Flats in Lemon – $ 162
These are a bit pricey, but they are darling and perfect for spring. They also come in about six other colors. Plus, they have cushioned insoles! Still, if I’m paying that much for shoes, they better have a heel!
French Sole Sloop in Marine Blue – $ 104
It was a tossup between these and the animal print flats. I do love the blue, and it’s so vibrant for the city. I’d still be spending way more than I want to spend.
Steve Madden Kobraa in Red Snake – $63
I’ve never been one for snake skin, but in red, I can look past it. These are feisty enough, but also work appropriate. Hmm…moving on.
Gabriella Rocha Cosma in Brown – $59
OK, so these are kind of cute. Brown flats that aren’t reminiscent of a Janis Joplin concert are hard to come by. I’m not too sure about the rhinestones. I guess they dress it up a bit. I think I’ll consider my other options.
Fitzwell Vanessa in Navy – about $53
I have been known to rock the Fitzwell’s. (OK, that’s not true.) But I’ve always liked the look…I love the toe and the simplicity of these shoes. They come in a variety of colors, and have gel insoles in the heel. (HEAVEN!) But, can I find something even cheaper?
I opted not to go for any of those. The Fitzwells were probably my favorite. But kidskin? That’s just a little bit too politically incorrect for my feet.
And so, the search continues for the perfect pair (or two!) of flats. Any suggestions???

6pm.com, baby!
It’s an affiliate of Zappos, and where their old shoes “go to die.” There ARE Fluevog flats on there for under $100, and I can tell you– my black ‘vog Lately’s have lasted over a year with me wearing them 3+ times a week. That’s a RECORD in my shoe closet!
Ashe Mischief – I’ve never heard of that site! Thanks so much, lady! I’m going to check it out right now!
LOVE the red ones and even the browns ones too! I always love flats but they always end up hurting my toes in the end ..
The marine blue flats look loooovely!
Like the Red and Blur best.
