If possible & in the most ideal of conditions, I would choose heels over any kind of shoes.

And this is where flats come in. Whether or not they’re your last choice on the shoe rack, you must admit that they are life-savers in nasty weather situations. And they are, by far, a better alternative to sneakers; there are many chic ones out there!<\/p>\n

\"bluefly-dg-leopard-pony-hair-flats1\"<\/a>Of course I had to find a pair of leopard print flats. Fall 2008 is yet another season embracing the animal print (and furs, exotics, etc.), which gives more of a reason to\u00a0invest in a pair! Although I usually opt for basics, like the necessary black and white shoes, I did expand my horizons and find a pair similar to these. Shoes in prints and patterns to add much interest to an otherwise basic outfit of a tee and jeans. The idea of an animal print shoe is lovely – it adds a bit of wild edge without being over the top, whilst maintaining femininity with a soft, gold bow. (Available at bluefly.com<\/a>, $396)<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

\"bluefly-stuart-weitzman-gold-leather-bolshoi-flats1\"<\/a>Yet another bluefly.com <\/a>find, these Stuart Weitzman gold leather “Bolshoi” flats are so darling. I have a weakness for anything in cream leather – these are no exception. With a captoe\u00a0in gold in a faux python print and a centerpiece of embellishments and a bowtie, this flat is a true beauty. These could become the centerpiece of an outfit during the day, whether it be with a dress or, once again, jeans and a tee, with the help of a cream colored bag. These are also suitable for any evening occasions or holiday parties for those who choose comfort over heels; in such situations, a gold headband with a bow (a la Blair Waldorf, but holiday-fied) would bring the outfit together.<\/p>\n

\"netaporter-miu-miu-metallic-banana-flats\"<\/a><\/p>\n

These Miu Miu Metallic Banana flats, available at net-a-porter<\/a>, are yet another embellished pair, perfect for both a day out or the evening. I must say; these are one of the first Miu Miu’s I’ve seen that are actually wearable and not excessively ostentatious. I do love the color of them; purple (this season’s new black) in minimal amounts is a lovely way of incorporating trends without seeming, well, too<\/em> religious of a trend follower. When wearing such a flashy pair of shoes, brooch and all, it is almost a must to keep the rest of your outfit as simple as possible (once again, bring out the wardrobe staples of jeans and a fitted tee). If you are, like me, one who lives to match completely and matches to live, I would opt for a silver bag and\/or a matching headband. \"bloomingdales-marc-by-mj-mouse-flats\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Ah, the much talked about Marc by Marc Jacobs Mouse flats, available at both shopbop & Bloomingdales<\/a>. Overrated, ridiculous, or too childish to some, I have come to love them. I once did think them a bit too immature, but there are always those days when we all long for something cutesy to wear. And the possibilities of outfits with these flats are endless. Think Blair Waldorf, and wear them with a black, opaque tights and a lovely jumper and blouse. Or make an LBD fun by pairing these white shoes for contrast. Yes, these shoes may only be suitable for a certain age group, but while you’re young, why not?<\/p>\n

\"shopbop-mc-flat-in-black\"<\/a><\/p>\n

These are quite possibly the most adorable shoes I have come across; I am dying to get a pair!! Available at shopbop<\/a>, these darling little Mike & Chris Virgil Ankle Wrap Ballet flats are the definition of cute in a shoe. I am particularly in love with the cream and black ones. Made with a soft leather (they are incredibly comfortable & rain proof!), the kitschy brass buttons are already adorable. However, the designers take it one step further, adding a wraparound tie! Remove the strand and wear it with long pants or skinny denim; add it and the flat becomes sophisticated, adding a bit of posh cutsey-ness to a casual dress, skirt, or shorts. I seriously do want a pair…<\/p>\n
