Seriously the Best Ballet Flats EVER

Written by Bryce

GORGEOUS

Let’s get straight to the point: I love comfortable shoes. I also love cute shoes. I also have no intention of letting go of either of these factors in my pursuit of the perfect daily shoe.

I’ve tried every single variety of ballet flats out there… I’ve got mountains of sensible J. Crew leather flats, a few haphazard Chanels, and a mountain of miscellaneous south-of-$150 cheapies. None have been particularly satisfying. I mean, some are really cute. Some are kinda comfy. Some are even made of the best possible materials… but no single flat has the ability to boast all three, right? Wrong. I tried Roses & Rye ballet flats for the first time today, and basically my soles (soul) died and went to heaven.

They’ve got the design attitude of Chanel, the leather quality of Ferragamo, and surprisingly the comfort of Aerosoles on steroids thanks to mega-enhanced arch support.

All I have to say is this: worth every last penny, and they’re the best possible gift to give any new mom that needs a little you-need-to-get-back-to-dressing-like-a-cute-woman kick in the ass.
