I noticed that the Me Too's Angie posted do not have elastic at the back but the Corso Comos look like they do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-favorite-elasticized-flats#post-200167 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 17:13:20 +0000 Maya 200167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I have tried the Linda flats and the Legend flats from Me Too. The Lindas are actually not elasticized enough so they continued to fall off my heel. I was bummed because the red color and the style was so perfect. </p> <p>I didn't like the look of the Laytons on my foot. Looked like bedroom slippers but were surprisingly snug. I could not try on a half size up to see if that helped. My store is perpetually understocked.</p> <p>I'll try the Lucca flats and the Corso Cormos. How is the size on those? I'm also willing to re-try the Laytons even though I wasn't totally sold on how they looked. I wish they just had a small 5/8" heel and weren't so, so flat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-favorite-elasticized-flats#post-200151 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 16:44:04 +0000 Angie 200151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nothing wrong with matte black ballet flats. </p> <p>Megan, I have not heard of that brand.

The Swanns feel a bit too big in 10s once they stretch but the elastic style still feel on the smaller side after lots of wear. They are still very comfy though, just too snug for my liking in the toe. When I get another elastasised pair of Me Toos I will def. try a size up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-favorite-elasticized-flats#post-200080 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 14:23:05 +0000 eperdu 200080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Check HSN.com for Me Too .. they have three styles on clearance for $45 a pair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-favorite-elasticized-flats#post-200078 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 14:21:04 +0000 eperdu 200078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A heads up on the Gap City Flats mentioned above .. I bought the black and red pair and absolutely adored them. </p> <p>But, yes yes, you know there is a but .. I wore each pair a full day and at the end of the day both pairs were losing their seaming on the bottom. I had developed holes in the sole!</p> <p>These are more like slippers than shoes. The sole is a plastic sole that is stitched onto the tops of the shoe. It is not an exact fit either, there is an inch or so all around them that is exposed leather and if you don't walk exactly on the plastic sole you will wear out and tear out the seaming.</p> <p>These shoes would be fantastic for indoor wearing on soft surfaces but if you are walking on pavement and other things I would think you'd want to give them a pass. I ended up returning both pairs (with a HUGE hassle). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-favorite-elasticized-flats#post-200059 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 13:32:22 +0000 yublocka 200059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a total Me Too convert thanks to ylf. Have 4 pairs and am desperately wanting some more to replace a few pairs of ballet flats that have just died. If only they came in purple and green!! Maya I think black is a good basic colour to have....works well with black leggings and a coloured dress amongst many other things of course! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-favorite-elasticized-flats#post-200039 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 12:34:53 +0000 Maya 200039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a crisis situation! I have one pair of shoes that work for this weather. Just one pair. And they aren't really that versatile (the Anthro oxfords). </p> <p>I guess Me Too is my only option even though I don't like how they are completely flat and how their elastic styles look on my feet. Style names would be greatly appreciated.</p> <p>Also, are matte black ballet flats boring? I like the Me Too Nickis in pewter but my size is gone. Only black is left (i don't like the other colors). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-favorite-elasticized-flats#post-200035 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 12:22:00 +0000 Megan 200035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love Bloch London shoes </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/London-Womens-Milled-Court-Ballet/dp/B002D49B60/ref=pd_sbs_shoe_2" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/London-W.....sbs_shoe_2</a></p> <p>I own far too many pairs (think maybe 6 in different colours- white, black, brown, ballet pink, steel blue and violet) and just adore them- super super comfy.

They were crinkled patent with a flattish bow placed diagonally across the toe box. Very similar to <a href="http://www.dsw.com/shoe/me+too+linger+ballet+flat?prodId=206147&amp;brand=300237">these</a> except the bow wasn't straight across. </p> <p>I have been thinking of you as I opened all my windows for the first time in weeks, during this cooler spell! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-favorite-elasticized-flats#post-199964 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 03:44:49 +0000 Angie 199964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I find the Tory Burch Reva flat very uncomfortable.

It has her logo, quite large on the toe. It's circular with two T's on it, one right side up and one upside down. The logo comes in black, gold, silver, and I think I've seen other colors. The main shoe comes in various colors and textures. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-favorite-elasticized-flats#post-199931 Fri, 13 Aug 2010 03:08:25 +0000 Michelle 199931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There is a Reva flat?

Now I realize, I just need to size up - way up! I have one pair from AT that are a 7 1/2 (and I normally wear a 6.5). I tried these on the other day and thought they were surprisingly comfy - I am contemplating getting the red ones and slipping my superfeet insoles into them:</p> <p><a href="http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=56991&#038;vid=1&#038;pid=776557&#038;scid=776557052" rel="nofollow">http://www.gap.com/browse/prod.....=776557052</a></p> <p>They have a cushy insole and the leather is super soft.
