Ballet flats should be comfortable, and elevated. Watch for the toe area - you want an elongated toe, almond shape toe, no toe cleavage. Loeffler Randall makes my favorite ballet flat. They are so flattering on the foot. There are classic shape and they are so comfortable. Run tts I also really love the reformation ballet flats this season. The shape is absolutely stunning and the leather is butter soft. Size 5. These do stretch with wear. LTKmomlife LTKOver40 LTKPetite
