Leopard flats -

Ever since I saw this photo on the Southerncharm site I have wanted leopard flats. I would scroll on my phone looking at shoes until the very last second possible on the plane and I had to shut it off.  I would wake up at night and think of a site I hadn't tried yet. I have been obsessed.

If you have the itch too I am going to give a quick review of all the leopard flats I have tried.

I bought these - Dr. Scholl's. They were comfortable but too wide. I went down a half size and they still weren't right - I wasn't sure how VERY cute they were either. Back they went.

Dr. Scholl's "Really" Leopard Flat - about $50.

I thought about these Tory Burch Reva flats a lot - even though they are pricey - I liked them. So I bought a pair on ebay and they showed up FAKE!! So I returned them to the supposedly unsuspecting girl that sold them to me. Jerk. 

Tory Burch leopard flats about $250 originally - ebayers beware.

These Lucky Brand Emmie flats are VERY comfortable - super squishy - like wearing squishy, supportive socks, and I had them in my online cart for a long time, but in the end I wanted some that were a tad dressier and wanted some calf hair ones - so it looks like real leopard. Not that I want to look like I hurt a leopard. The shoes that look like leopard actually use calf-hair which seems horrible now too.  I wish I hadn't brought up animals. I feel sad now about any shoes. 

Lucky Brand "Emmie" Flats - about $60.

I asked a woman on a plane about hers and these Nine West flats are the ones she had. For some reason I couldn't bring myself to buy these even though they were really pretty in person and she said "very comfortable." I was hesitant about the pointy-toe ones - felt better about the idea of the round toe - more "me." I went with pointy toes in the end though so whatever. 

Nine West "Speak Up" Leopard Flat - about $80.  They look prettier in person.

I thought about these as well, but the low price worried me. I wanted something really pretty - this was not the item to go cheapy on.  I am not sure about the fabric - they get good reviews on Amazon though. These are "vegan" which after writing about leopards and calf hair seems like a good idea.

Ollio Leopard Flats about $16

And finally I saw these in Nordstrom's and (no shame here) my MOM bought them for me!  Hooray for that!  Yay Mom! I went for the pointy toe and toe cleavage and all.  And as soon as it's not a thousand and ten degrees here in Florida I will bust these out. 

Steve Madden 'Elusion' Leopard Print Calf Hair Half d'Orsay Flat about $80

They are just pretty to look at in my closet. They fit true to size, by the way. I don't know how comfortable they are yet - probably take a little breaking in.

Anyone have something they are lusting after? Don't say cocaine because that is an actual serious problem. 

** Update! I LOVE the Steve Madden shoes that I bought. They took a couple of times to break them in a little but now they are so comfortable. No support obviously as they are very flat, but I can still wear them all day with and they still feel good.  I wear them with practically any and everything - from super casual to a business suit. They are my favorite pair of fall/winter shoes. They seem to still be available - thanks a lot Steve Madden! - So here are a few that are similar at least. 
Sam Edelman Rae (pointy toe)
Sam Edelman Felicia (round toe)
Nine West Adorabl (more round)
Nine West Zaba (pointy toe)
Breckelle's D'Orsay (pointy toe)
