Ballet Flats



Like most things in fashion, the ballet flat is a style recycled from centuries past.
The ballet flat dates all the way back to the 16th century.
Like all trends, ballet flats came and went. In the late 1950s, they returned to the scene after Audrey Hepburn wore a pair of ballet flats with skinny jeans in the film, “Funny Face.”
More recently, ballet flats made a come back when designers like Tory Burch,rolled out flashier versions of the style.
Shortly thereafter, the trend spread like a wildfire… and the rest is history!
Now, the ballet flat is truly a fashion classic. Some even consider it a mandatory wardrobe staple. To me, they’re the shoe I turn to most.
I love ballet flats because they can be dressed up or down for any occasion. Plus, what girl doesn’t want an excuse to skip the heels for a day?
