NewsAfter a year of working from home thanks to the pandemic, we’ve all forgotten what it’s like to wear a pair of stilettoes. In 2020, we lived in our slippers, occasionally venturing out in a pair of white sneakers to run errands to the grocery store. Fashion trends are now focusing on comfort over aesthetics, with no one wanting the pair and discomfort of stumbling around in a pair of sky-high Louboutins. While you might think loafers remind you of your days at school, they’re the flat shoes that you’ll be wearing all of 2021.
Flat shoes are experiencing a major comeback in 2021, whether it’s the Birkenstocks or shearling slippers. Loafers are perhaps the most versatile style that you can add to your closet. They can take you from a day at the office to a trip to the theatre with your friends.

You can pick up a pair of classic loafers from every brand on the market, whether you’re a Gucci girl or prefer to save your coin and shop at Zara.

Loafers are a more versatile style than you might think. Gucci is leading by changing the silhouette to make them backless, creating a mule shoe that is a must-have for spring and summer.
