Ok I have a confession. None of these shoes were bought full price. Seriously, I bs you not. I live my by mantra of looking chic without breaking the bank. Owning a great article of clothing, purse, or in the case, a beautiful flat does not mean you have to save for months or make an unwise purchase. By thrifting, shopping at consignment stores, and perusing sites as ebay.com and etsy.com  finding great vintage and designer shoes that are wallet friendly is possible. Also sites as shoedazzle, sole society, and sole society, offer great looks that help you achieve that polished look. Don't be scared sign up. Go head honey, take a chance.

The six shown are my to-go-to pairs for work and those times where my little tootsies refuse to be encased into a heel. Don't get me wrong I love a beautiful pair of heels unfortunately, earlier in the year I had a foot injury so yeah me and heels are not the best of friends right now.
