Get the Look: Mary Jane Flats

This season, our footwear gets a romantic update. Ballet and Mary Jane flats can be seen all over Instagram, which is particularly refreshing after a long winter of chunky boots and dad trainers. While the ballet version was part of my teenage wardrobe, Mary Janes are making a debut on my feet this spring and summer. Because I prefer a look that is everything but girly, I wanted to style them in a casual yet elevated way. This patent leather pair from Aeyde is a timeless version with a cool twist that will look equally stylish with a trendy maxi skirt as with wide-leg trousers. Combined with a crisp white shirt and accessories in silver tones that match the buckles, you get two minimal spring looks that will work perfectly with the rest of your capsule wardrobe.
