The Rankings
Frye Gemma Kiltie Fringe Slip-On
USERS SAID: "I really loved both the blush and grey color and couldn't decided so I ordered both with the intention to return the one that was "ugly". When they arrived they were both so beautiful just as pictured that I kept both. They're comfortable, soft, substantial and the perfect dressy yet casual flat."
STYLE WITH: Pair these with ankle-length trousers
Dansko Delle Clog
LOVED FOR: Finally—a way to add some height and wear heels that won't leave you aching at the end of the day (or night).
USERS SAID: "These clogs are so comfortable! I am a teacher and am on my feet all day. When I wear these clogs, my feet feel great. And they're so stylish!"
ECCO Soft 7 Mid Top Sneaker
BEST FOR: Do you hate blisters? Well, then you'll love these shoes thanks to the soft footbed and heel cutout designed to prevent any ankle chaffing.
LOVED FOR: Consider this an elevated option to your standard sneaker selection. They're just as comfortable but way chicer.
Halogen Tansy Studded Slip-On Sneaker
LOVED FOR: Suede, leather, and studding? These shoes are a feast for the detail-appreciating eyes.
USERS SAID: "These shoes are very sharp looking, they are also very comfortable. They have nice padding inside and a bit of support built in the insole."
Gentle Souls Rory Loafer Mule Sneaker
BEST FOR: If you style is more "throw on and go," you'll love being able to slide into these mule sneakers and head out the door with style.
STYLE WITH: Try a chunky cropped sweater to amp up the easy-going aesthetic.
Salvatore Ferragamo Vara Pump
BEST FOR: These shoes never have—and never will—go out of style. Invest in these pumps if you want to hand them down to your daughter one day.
USERS SAID: "This pump is a classic. Perfect height for being on your feet all day and looking polished and professional. They are expensive but will wear beautifully for years and as they are so well made will not break down. I have them in 3 colors."
Naturalizer Morrison Sneaker
BEST FOR: Wide feet
USERS SAID: "These sneakers are very comfortable with a sleek look. The wide sizes are a godsend in a market of decidedly medium width shoes. The wider widths still look chic."
Paul Green Natasha Loafer
LOVED FOR: The platform sole makes this loafer as streetwise as it does office appropriate.
USERS SAID: "These shoes are just what I've been searching for for YEARS. A work shoe that is comfortable, not a pump, and not completely flat either. I love the zipper detail--it's so beautiful and edgy. If you're considering buying these, don't hesitate."

STYLE WITH: Wear these with your relaxed jeans, and don't forget your umbrella.
