For the record, I am not a flats kind of girl, but having little boys to chase make them a necessary evil. Thankfully, flats are getting cuter. These Giuseppe Zanotti shoes are fabulous flats (is that an oxymoron?). They are sand colored suede with clear crystal detail and they have a leather thong and silver tone hardware. Available at Stylebop., $1,110. They also come in black at Endless.

If you don't have a grand to drop on the originals, here's a similar shoe at Zappos $69.
