The problem with most of the alternatives is that they don’t properly support the ankle, joints, back, and foot. Clunky shoes may not look good, but many of them are more healthy. Being bent over or limping at 60 because you decided to wear “elegant”shoes when younger isn’t elegant or attractive either.

I would have liked to see some shoes that can be worn to walk outside, or inside. Really need some cushioning on the bottom or inside.
True elegance is about being comfortable in your own skin and being kind. This includes appreciating people who wear things you don’t like without categorizing them as “inelegant.” Personally I do have a classic, feminine style and don’t own any of the things on this list, but whenever I see the titles of these videos I can’t help but wonder why people insist on making these lists and categorizing people. Kindness and openness to differences is beautiful. Wanting to be above someone else for any reason, isn’t. Love yourself and others, and you are beautiful!

If the choice is between walking in a supportive shoe or sitting in an elegant shoe - the supportive shoe wins every time. Ballet flats look great but are so thin soled I cannot wear them. If you have foot problems it is also near on impossible to wear backless shoes even if they are Gucci. Your foot needs a strap at the back to keep your foot in the shoe.

I would add espadrilles to the "good list" specially for summer time, there are some very good quality ones that look very elegant, not all of them of course
My life long style motto: Just because a famous person wears a certain item or has a certain hairstyle, does not mean they have good taste or that it looks attractive. I have not always dressed with latest trends but I always feel that I look feminine as well as elegant. I think the most attractive that women have looked in the past 75 years was most of the 60s styles. Makeup, and some hair was often over done but clothes and shoes, mostly right on spot.
Your “is this a shoe for bondage?” Comment made me laugh out loud. Love how you bring humor to your videos!
Maybe it’s just me but i could never wear slides , Especially with socks! Love Clark’s shoes for comfort
Anna! Please do a video on elegant beach wear. I’m not sure what shoes to wear because I want to look elegant but I don’t want to spend a lot of money on shoes that will get dirty.
To me the main difference is casual vs. formal. The "elegant" shoes are much more formal. I don't dress formal and am on my feel a lot, so need support.
There are some great suggestions here! Likely most people will be able to find an alternative that works for them. But I have to take issue with the "repel a man" or "attract a man" discussion. The attractiveness of a woman, if that's even something that needs to be discussed, comes from so many things. And what two people find attractive in one another cannot be measured by "elegance" or a "style". I mean, what century are we living in? Long gone are the days when women had to twist themselves in knots in order to "get" a man. One of the first women to take that stand? Coco Chanel. She had lovers, but she made her own way on her own terms. These days, we make our own money, own our own homes, invest, adopt and raise children on our own, and make our own rules for a happy life. How about a discussion of how MEN need to make themselves more attractive to US.

Agreed, all this 'advice' is very old fashioned. Sorry, but Anna hasn't got a clue. God knows where this 'image consultant' certification comes from as it's clear she does not professionally work in fashion (how galling that she's trying to make money from a course around her supposed 'expertise', yikes). The slingbacks and dress combo 🤮 and removing the metal hardware from the loafers makes them look ridiculous. Nowadays it's passé to wear ultra-feminine clothing all over - it's much more chic to give your outfit a bit of an edge through contrast: formal / informal or masculine / feminine. I work in a high-wealth industry and ALL the women are actually pretty casual but still chic. Many wear loafers (with metal hardware), designer sneakers and birkenstocks. They prioritise comfort and know it's not mutually exclusive with style. Besides they don't have anything to prove. Unfortunately Anna comes across as someone who pretends she mixes in these circles but doesn't know what she's talking about. Also the fact that all this is geared around 'getting a man' rather than doing it for yourself is...probably the most old fashioned aspect of all. Gross.

Hallux valgus and fallen arches entered the chat. Seemingly comfortable and safe, they are not a good choice for feet and legs. The problem is the thin sole, which does not provide cushioning, they are not profiled, so they do not support the feet. They can cause foot deformities, calluses and knee pain.

Many of the shoes and sandals you dislike you are styling with a dress that does not work with them. More casual clothing would work better and make them look much nicer. Some of us need comfort and you can style these shoes in a stylish way. Yes you are going for elegance, but make make it sound as if those shoes have no place in our wardrobe which I disagree with.

Anything that gives the foot a clunky or chunky appearance is not elegant. To be perfectly honest, even some of the shoes that Anna likes are too bulky-looking, for my tastes.
Thank you so much for doing this. I was a pump wearer and unfortunately was paralyzed on one foot and only an wear flats. It’s been a struggle.
Birkenstocks have their uses as work shoes and casual wear. The enclosed ones with back strap are the go-to shoe for German nurses and doctors. They are also usually recommended for people with foot problems as they give much more support than most flats and are often worn as house shoes or for casual outings. (Germans tend to walk a lot, so good support is important.) I‘m not sure when and why they became a fashion accessory, but I’m fairly certain they were never meant to be. 😁

Videos like this one are made to give alternatives 😊 Then of course, this is only if you want to follow what she says. Of course you can decide to still wear sport clothes in your daily life 😊

I can’t give you any ideas on the loafers or mules that she suggests. I have plantar fasciitis too and I only wear flats if I’m only going to be on my feet no more than an hour or two. But if you get a sneaker that is very similar to the Louis Vuitton’s she likes, they work really well. Make sure the sole of the shoe is sturdy, not too bendy, and thicker to absorb more shock. And I always make sure my sneakers have removable inserts so I can put in the plantar fasciitis inserts. I have several pairs that are similar and they work well for me. I know we don’t all have the same feet, but maybe give them a try. Also, a slight heel, like maybe half an inch to an inch helps too.

I am known by my friends and family as someone who dresses pretty elegantly, classy and with good taste. I am 55 and can't afford designer shoes but there are just as good and cuter, more functional shoes out there. I agree with about 80% of the selections here or at least the reasonings. I have a hard time wearing flats without arch support. So some of these flats or slingbacks are really impractical from any standpoint. I would be more comfortable wearing high heels. Fyi..I love the fisherman shoes and not all men think they are grandma shoes. It really depends on the function or event the shoe is worn to. Not all choices should be for some fancy outing.

@@feelthejoy Above all, we have to wear whatever suits us best so if you like them, it's fine. It's like what Anna said about animal print, some people love it, some can't stand it. Fortunately we have a lot of different options to choose from. 😊
I love my fisherman sandals from The Row - I dress for myself (not for men) and get many compliments on them. If you know, you know.

I appreciate some of her style advice but I honestly cringe every time she uses men's opinions like it should influence what we wear. I love when my girlfriends like my outfits n shoes, I honestly couldn't care less what men want to see me in.

Dress for your self
Lovely - motivated to go for more elegant style shoe instead of the super comfortable ones when going out. love your taste
I love your humor so much!! "Man repellent, alien shoes" 🤣so true!! Great idea for spring flats thanks.
Seemingly comfortable and safe, balet flats are not a good choice for feet and legs. The problem is the thin sole, which does not provide cushioning, they are not profiled, so they do not support the feet. They can cause foot deformities, calluses and knee pain.
Great tips Anna! It used to be that the unattractive shoes were the most comfortable shoes. Now I'm finding so many more choices, where the shoes are not only attractive but comfortable especially for those of us with major foot problems.

Any recommendations on brands that fit both those criteria? 🙏
I have to say, I watch your videos for years but you levels up so much, I can’t relate to the price point anymore. ❤
I love your suggestions. I will be looking for some look-alike dupes for some of these.
Another fun and helpful video! Thank you Anna. There were some strange shoes and most of the alternatives, while some were expensive, seemed appropriate. I like to wear heels at work but during the summer when you're out & about all day, you just have to go with a good pair of flats and no one wants to sacrifice style. Also I love the Teddy cameo again, such a cute puppy 🐶
I ove your selection! Especially the Superga sneakers. I also have them in my wardrobe.🥰
I have Chanel Ballet flats. Their my favorite. I recently purchased a pair of plain Hermes flats in suede. They definitely are a find and a look.
Dear Anna, Thank you for showing what TO wear as well as what not to wear. I asked this on a recent video, and feel you heard my request. Many thanks! You're so very helpful! P.S. I love seeing Teddy's cameos, he's such a cutie!
Okay but the first “appropriate option” is soooo granny 😅 and I do love a good dose of Anna Bey! ❤️❤️
I have sore feet so I wear running shoes to at from work. I keep them on regardless of how they look.

I am sure there are shoes out there that are both comfortable and nice looking.

We should always wear comfortable shoes! I don't care what anybody thinks of my shoes. She is so limited and superficial! If you are in pain why would you harm yourself even more?
Anna educating us and making us laugh at the same time 😂
Elegance quite depends on how you define it! I think it's Elegant to respect the subjectivity of taste ofc and also elegant to wear things you feel comfortable in. I also find nude backed dresses elegant personally but some people may not! I have those more chunky sandals with the straps, and I like them a lot for comfort and basic style, they're elegant to me in a way. I do like those slingback shoes also :) they would be a nice option -if- I did want a finer shoe instead of my sandals Loafers are my favourite. I take your advice where it applies to me. Thank you for the flat options!
I don't really like most of the alternatives either. And some of them even less than those which are meant to be not appropriate, especially number one. But it entertains.
I love my ballet’s and all my elegant shoes sling backs kitten heels etc I’ve just bought a pair of Russell and Bromley loafers and I love them!
I have a lookalike pair of sneakers from my local supermarket- they cost me less than £20 but look smart. I also like that you differentiate between occasions for wearing certain shoes
Agree !! Thank you for making this video!! The number one shoe I hate is crocs and any dad shoe or grandma shoe. slides I only wear as you said as a house slipper only ❤
Anna, I love your videos, and I love that your personality is really starting to come through.
Anna, I've found you look specially beautiful in this video. I liked this black dress, feminine and quit formal/composed at same time!! Great advices as well! Thank you!! 💐
Omg!! I love how you admittedly cut the extra straps off the shoe!!❤❤❤😂
Oh my gosh thank you. I'm 29 and everyone my age wear these weird shoes. Crocs also seem to be a favorite.

You do you and live them alone.
I found that if you are doing a lot of walking and want to wear a dress but be super comfortable wear Sketchers mary janes or similar mary jane type sneaker shoes! I wore mine to an amusement park and they were so comfortable! 💜no foot pain whatsoever!
The problem with most of these shoes is that.....they exist. Having said that I live in london and walk about 8 miles most days. So for me no feminine shoe or sandal cuts the mustard, it has to be trainers all day every day. If I'm wearing a dress I will take a pair of low heels with me.
I have those exact $250 beige flats for 10 bucks from another store and they are my favorite. Classic, elegant, match every outfit so comfy, i bought 5 pairs
I like your style and taste! So true the things you said. Ballet flats are number one as well as classic flats. Or even with a simple bow (not the huge ones). And yes one sling or strap not multiple ones. The industry and media just don’t help. They force women to wear only cheap and masculinated junk. So many stores don’t even sells shoes anymore and just sneakers; you have to go online to get decent shoes that aren’t out of this world expensive; but even there it’s harder and harder to find good varieties.
This is the video I have NEEDED. Shopping for flats that are both comfortable and nice looking is harder than it looks.
Thank You Beautiful @Anna Bey ❤ I couldn’t agree more. It’s nice to know I’m not the only one who is so picky with shoes. 😊 I tried Birkenstocks years ago because they claimed to be good for the feet - they hurt my feet & were so uncomfortable! Yucky looking & I felt they actually destroyed my feet more. Can’t stand the boxy clunky shoes. I love my Tod’s gomme & ballet shoes … They’re actually my favorite shoe & purse brand overall. I was just shocked last summer to see some of their line were appealing to the trends but at least they maintain the classics. ❤
That was really interesting! I ruined my already harmed knees by wearing heels since being a teenager but just stopped when I got too pregnant (after years of pain). But flat shoes look so often just sporty or comfy - elegant options are rare.
Lovely presentation Anna! Thank you for this video!
I like loafers, but when my husband saw them for the first time, he said, "That's exactly what my grandmother used to wear".🤦♀️😂I'm 1.74 tall and loafers fit me much better than ballet flats, in wich I look ridiculus. Loafers look better on most women. I completely agree with all the other examples in the video 🤮🤣.

Anna Bey I loved it when you chopped away the chain on the loafers what a nice touch
I agree with you ❤ I love to wear pointed bellies without ankle strap🤷♀️
