Aren’t ballet flats suppose to be comfortable?!?! Then why do so many of them cut into the back of my heel, give me blisters and cause my feet to ache?!?! Well, guess what…
…I’ve found a truly comfortable and supportive ballet flat. It’s the answer to all our feet woes! If you’re a dancer you are probably familiar with Bloch, the dance shoe company. If you tried out for cheerleading four times and never made it (like me), well then you’re not familiar with “dance” brands -ha! Well, leave it to the highly regarded ballet shoe company to make the most comfortable ballet flat on the market.

How can such cute shoes be so comfortable?!
One of the reasons they are so comfortable is that the elastic band is adjustable to your liking. You just pull it as tight or as loose as you like, tie it in a bow and then cut the strings. Another reason is that the inside of the shoe is suede and there is an extra cushion at the bottom of the heel. Bloch makes so many great styles, check these out here, here, here and here.
I also love the contrast of the brown leather sole. They look almost identical to these flats from J. Crew! I made my sister-in-law and my sister try them on and be my testers. My sister-in-law said, “Oh, I totally need these before I go to Chicago!” (where her boyfriend lives and where they walk the city in love-hahaha!). And my sister said, “Oh, I’m totally ordering those” and then showed me the blister on the back of her heel that her current flats were giving her.

Sorry for all the pictures, but I had to include these. You see that growth on my nose? Nope, not a growth, it’s a lady bug! I thought these pictures were hilarious and I had to show you guys!
I just ordered them! This staple was missing in my closet! Thank you for the rec! Hey, aren’t ladybugs lucky?
I love how when ordering on Zappos they recommend sizing up from your “street size”. Precious little classy ballet flats just went thuggish… These are too cute!
Carly, did you size up?
Hi Leigh Anne! I typically wear an 8.5 and I purchase a 39, which is .5 size up. Hope this helps.
Thank you! You are precious as usual! Love your blog
Do you like that bag? How’s the leather? I have been looking for a cute crossbody that’s different than Marc Jacobs or other typical styles. As a mom, crossbodys are the most comfortable for me.
Hi Carly, I’ve got another ballet flat for you to try…Tieks, they are so comfortable. Like you can walk at Disney the entire day, 5 day pass..NO PROBLEM. And tons of gorgeous colors and animal prints! Love your blog!
Hi Carly – any idea where these are available now? I’ve tried your links and looked on the internet and can’t seem to find them in stock. Thank you!
