    Ballet flats

    I've been wanting a pair of this for ages!

    I've noticed that they range in price depending on the shop- anywhere from $30- $100.

    So where did you get yours from and how much did you pay? Also are they comfy?

    Well I think I am the ballet flat queen LOL I have like 5 pairs!!

    2 I got from target, they are ok... great for the price (one was $10, the other $20)
    1 I got from a cheap shoe shop (cant remember the name!) they are great
    1 I got from spendless shoes and they are sooooo comfy, and they were only $20!
    the last pair I got from a warehouse sale, so that doesn't really help you!!

    Happy shopping

    Whatever you do, do NOT get them from Dotti.
    I bought two pairs of ballet flats from dotti - because they had the colours i really wanted. Now admittedly they were only $10- each but they do retail at $40 (got mine from DFO). Both pairs were lucky if they lasted me a week. And they're really bad grip-wise - i slid across the middle of a busy intersection and landed flat on my face!
    I found ballet flats from target and k-mart weren't wide enough for my broad feet - hopefully you have better luck.
    I love the canvas flats as well - BIG-W have a sale on what looks to be a great range of these at the moment.

    I've gotten a few pairs from Big W and they have always lasted several months. Thye are usually between $15-20. I wear them every day too, so for $20 it's a pretty good deal!

    Thanks for the feedback. I'm really into comfy shoes at the moment. I feel sorry for Sarah Jessica Parker always wearing heals.

    I bought a pair from Myer. I think the brand is Candy and they were $30. They are pretty comfy but they did take a few wears to wear them in though.

    Ooh I love ballet flats. I pick up a pair when I have the $$ and I see some really cute ones.. I have a red brocade pair and a mint green brocade pair, they look so cheeky with jeans. They were less than $10 at an asian imports sort of store. I have a nice pair of black leather ones from Gap, paid probably $70 for them but worth it. Another black leather pair that a friend bought me in France. And a cute little pink pair I found some place or the other for around $5.
