FLAT AND FESTIVE: THE PERFECT ALTERNATIVE IF YOU DON’T LIKE WALKING ON HEELS

Summer festivities are all lined up for you, so it’s time to pull out all your dresses, skirts and suits out of your closet. Because whether you’ve got a wedding or a chic garden path on the menu, you want to show up looking your absolute best. Now I know you’re probably thinking that with certain events wearing heels is required, but they don’t have to be. Flats are the perfect alternative and they happen to also be a lot more comfortable and will spare you from sprained ankles. Laced up shoes, loafers or ankle boots: I’m going to show you how to rock your outfit without any blisters or broken heels.

”This will definitely be way more comfortable to dance in (and easier too) than the heels your friends are wearing.”

A swaying midi length skirt is perfect for summer festivities like weddings and chic garden parties. Pair your skirt with a short wide top that has an A-line. Obviously pumps would look wonderful with this look, but so do silver colored ballet flats. It’ll add an immediate bold color boost to your look too. This will definitely be way more comfortable to dance in (and easier too) than the heels your friends are wearing. Dance the night away!

Suits are always a great idea too and this &Other Stories is a great one. The print on the blouse and shorts are the same which creates a super quick and super easy stylish look in no time and your favorite laced up shoe adds a festive edge. Opt for a double colored platform heel or a metallic layer. Add a colored cross body around your shoulder and you’re ready to go. Complaining about sore feet? You sure won’t the one.
