These dainty pieces of footwear enjoyed a fashion resurrection after Audrey Hepburn wore them in a song-and-dance number for the movie Funny Face in 1957. Since then, ballet flats have proven to be a wardrobe mainstay and provided endless outfit versatility for fans of fashion for decades. This post will prove to all you women that the ballerina flat is not to be messed with. They can make it through day time, night time, and practically any time. Here are two simple day and night looks that you can achieve with a simple and classic pair of ballet flats!
So these are the flats that we will be styling. It’s from Mango, with a simple yet iconic rounded shape that features ribbon detailing as well as a metallic tip on the ribbons. They come in black, which is a colour much favoured for its versatility. This simple pair will keep you looking polished and pulled together, even if every other piece of your outfit is unique and unusual. Completely comfortable and fuss free, these shoes will also keep you dancing all night with no worries at all! So apt for these flats that were originally inspired by ballet slippers for ballerinas.
Day Look
Feminine and chic, this look is perfect for a day out with your boyfriend or even some girlfriends. The beautiful summery prints and off-shoulder design, in a refreshing blue colour, paired with a soft pink jacquard midi skirt, accessorised with a structured bag, completely dresses up the ballet flats and keeps the look very fresh and youthful.
Night Look
One can never go wrong when it comes to the classic little black dress. Since the dress is so simple, add some bold yet elegant accessories to accent the gold in the flat shoes. Gold and black makes for the perfect luxurious and sophisticated combo, so pack it on! But remember to do oh-so-elegantly so there’s no gold overdose.
Ballet flats make for such versatile styling options for gorgeous day and night looks, don’t you agree? They make for comfy yet stylish alternatives to sky-high heels, so we don’t feel as guilty eschewing our heeled shoes and giving our feet a well-deserved break.
