Shoesday Tuesday- I didn't forget!

I know today is Shoesday Tuesday- I didn't forget! Between setting up the Etsy shop and a hectic day after work, I didn't get around to it. So sorry. Maybe if I type fast I can get this post published before midnight and it can still qualify as Shoesday Tuesday not Shoesday... Wednesday (which is totally lame).

Anyway, I started off my day in a pair of super cheap, super old black ballet flats. I am telling you, these shoes have become a torture device. I don't know how my feet made it through the day, but there are 4 inch heels in my closet that are more comfortable than these flats. So today when I came home from work, I threw those shoes in the trash. I kicked them off the minute I walked in the door and immediately tossed them in the garbage. That'll teach me to buy cheap shoes. But now I need to replace my black ballet flats.

I'm diggin' these:

Kelsi Dagger Caymen Ballet Flat, Endless, $49.99

But this isn't the only clever use of zipper trim on a ballet flat. I'm also diggin' these:

Elizabeth and James E-Just Flats, SSENSE, $188

And these:

Bamboo Phelps Zipper Bow Flat, Urban Original, $14.80

And these:

Jessica Simpson Zipper Trim Bow Detail Ballet Flat, Lord & Taylor, $69

So what do you all think? Which ones are your favorite? I'm not sure I'll go for zipper trim flats, or standard black without any embellishments, but I do need to replace them. Happy Shoesday Tuesday!
