Move aside ballet flats, mules are back in town. The mule ruled last summer in a variety of ways. From flats to heels, open toe to closed, and embellished to minimalistic, the mule was the shoe of the season and this year they're on repeat. Our favorites right now are a fresh take on the style and spoiler alert, they're woven! This Top 10 list is packed full of rich leathers and fun colors versatile enough to work for weekend errand runs or a full day at the office. Lattice designs and tightly woven looks have us daydreaming of summer beach getaways and European vacations. Comfort meets style in these chic flats... and they look dreamy paired with a wide-brimmed hat and a lightweight caftan. Opening image: shopbop.com
