I bought these classic Chanel flats for myself as a birthday gift last year. I thought I would wear them constantly, but because I’m such a heels girl… I actually haven’t. I keep telling myself I will wear them a lot more in San Francisco because we’ll be walking everywhere. Until then, I’ve challenged myself to style them in new ways to show you (and myself) the versatility.
If you’re like me and you like to give things a “trial run” before making the splurge, there are a ton of similar styles that are a fraction of the price that you can try out first. I bought a similar style from ZARA years ago. After wearing them to shreds during the work week and on trips I made the splurge.
I styled these flats with boyfriend jeans here. Today I wanted to make them a little more edgy with faux leather and this rockstar bag that I am more than in love with.
This is the kind of look that I think really works for nearly any age – a fitted legging, boyfriend fit button front shirt and chic flats. It’s kind of fool-proof in my opinion, just like the denim on denim look here!

Great post! Your flats are gorgeous, and I can imagine they were worth the splurge. As for me, i’m more of a heel or converse person. There’s no in between so I tend to shy away from flats. Perhaps one day I’ll wear more flats.

I think a classic sneaker like Converse also looks great with SO much!
That is such a unique and statement daytime bag! I love your casual combo and those Chanel flats are a timeless pair of shoes which will always work so well with any outfit. 🙂

Love the look! I’ve been eyeing those Chanel flats for a while – where did you manage to find yours? I’ve been having trouble locating them at the bigger retailers.
Thanks!
I bought them at a Chanel store!
