11 Fabulous Flats—Your Feet Will Thank You

Upon seeing photo after photo of pregnant Kim Kardashian stuffing her aching feet into heels and extremely uncomfortable looking shoes I couldn't help but wonder, "Why so anti-flats?" Flats have come a long way, fashionistas. Sure, they may not accentuate your legs the same way heels can, but they're a heck of a lot comfier and today's styles really are fun and some are even, dare I say, hot. After perusing this roundup of flats, I challenge you not to be persuaded to take a walk on the shorter side. I'm sure I'll be seeing more of you at my eye level very soon (just please don't snatch up all of the size 8s—thanks!).
