I've been a fan of ballet flats for almost as long as I can remember, they're comfortable but feminine, can be dressed up or down and are easy to slip on and off (especially ideal when you live in a no-shoes household and happen to be pregnant.) I've rounded up what I think are ten of the best options out there, all under $200. From the foldable Yosi Samra which is perfect for tucking in your bag so that you don't end up barefoot on the dance floor at the end of the wedding, to the $20 pair from Target that I own in nearly every color, to Everlane's version that falls in the no-toe cleavage camp.
