Quest for Black Flats

First of all, thanks so much for all of the super sweet comments on my last 3 posts. I feel so lucky to have such awesome and supportive bloggy friends.

Since you are so awesome, I need your help. I am in desperate need of new black flats. Mine are currently completely falling apart and I am scared someone is going to think I am a hobo. Do hobos still exist? Because, if they do I need to join their merry band, as last week I had to tape a pair of Micheal Kors moccasins together when they fell apart at work. Time for some shoe shopping I know...but I am trying not to spend money so I am limiting to things I really need...and black flats fit into the category.

Anyways, my current pair are Steve Madden and I got them about a year ago. They started falling apart very quickly but it only now has become noticeable.

Here are my requirements: basic (they can have some embellishment but nothing too wacky as I wear them mostly to work), not completely flat to the ground (a la ballet shoes...my feet will start to hurt), and under $40.

Any ideas?



These would be nice...

If I had an extra $455 laying around to spend on..black flats.

Oh wait, even if I had that there is no way I would spend it on black flats.

I would love some Revas...but alas..I must save money and will be a poor student soon. Maybe I will ask for them for Christmas :)

I'm on the same quest! Last year, I accidentally bought a pair of super cute heel Aerosoles(trust me, it is possible) instead. I'll be checking back to see if anyone has any good ideas! Good luck!

I got the best black flats at Target and they have lasted and I wear them at least once a week, so they have been worn a lot!! And they are only $12.99. These ones are different than the ones when I got them (which I think is like two years ago!) and I went and bought them in every style they had them in because they are so comfortable!

I got some great black flats at Target and once got a pair that looks just like the above (but in yellow...they also had black) at Old Navy.
