Flats have been gracing and coddling the feet of many a stylish and sensible woman for decades (See Audrey). Heels no longer signify 'going out' or 'at the office'-- flats can go anywhere, let you do anything, and can make you look as good as any heel can. Okay, it may not have the same effect as a stiletto heel does, but did I mention you can actually walk in comfort for more than a block? My personal favorite is the ballet flat, with a comfortable rounded toe, an elastic strap for support, a ribbon or bow here or there, and maybe some elastic ruching in the back for the perfect fit and contour. Yes, the ballet flat has it all.
