I just couldn’t resist the call of retro chic and so decided that I start the week off with a feature on some festive-looking flats from Anthropologie. They’re so adorable and absolutely perfect for the holidays– I dare you find someone who will be able to resist any of them! And while there could be more, I managed to get a hold of myself and narrowed it down to six.

Sami Flats, $278, Belle by Sigerson Morrison

The mix of shiny top leather, shearling and red Scandinavian ribbon is just pure genius! It also comes in black but this red version is much more exotic.

Chiffchaff Flats, $178, Meher Kakalia

Kitsch somehow brings out the homey, holiday spirit in me. This leather flat with colorful, embroidered birds will dress up those denims nicely.

Forbidden Stitch Flats, $178, Meher Kakalia

This flat is all kinds of dainty, with its soft yellow leather decorated with intricate crochet and bead work. Comfortable and stylish.

Trinket Flats, $98, Pilcro

This bold orange-red flat gets a vintage touch with its antiquated bow charm. I see this giving a little black dress an unlikely twist.

Suen Flats, $178, Meher Kakalia

Turquoise leather flats with hot pink embroidery– Meher Kakalia certainly takes handmade into another level. Absolutely divine.

On-Your-Toes Flats, $138, Pilcro

This silver leather skimmer brings to mind tinsel and ice with its pebbly, metallic toe cap. En pointe style.

Rachel Bilson Wears Her T-Strap Flats in the LA Winter Weather

The beauty with living in LA during winter is that you still get the sun without the heat. Of course it doesn’t snow but at least you can dress in light winter clothes. Just like Rachel Bilson here, spotted shopping for fruits and vegetables early this February, garbed in sweater and scarf, paired with jeans, T-strap flats, and sunglasses. Now, only in LA will you find people wearing such an ensemble (and perhaps also in Vegas).

Rachel Bilson spotted shopping for fruits and vegetables

Rachel definitely looks dressed down in the pictures, but still looking pretty. You know… the kind who looks good even without make-up. Now as for the shoes, THOSE I love.

They look so comfy. And the cut is quite unique. You will rarely find a pair of T-strap flats that only cover the front and heel of the foot. Most T-strap flats available in the market look like ballet flats with T-straps on them.

I tried looking for a similar pair but couldn’t find one. If you come across a style such as hers, please let know.

On another note, I came across these cute T-strap flats from Kenneth Cole, Sigerson Morrison, and Charlotte Ronson. Not the same cut, but these are quite slim and flat – very feminine and easy to wear. Plus, all three are on discount!

Charlotte Ronson PA7062 T-strap Flats, on sale for US$94 at Zappos.com

Sigerson Morrison 9517 T-strap Flats, on sale for US$274 at Zappos.com (black color only; gold color at full price)

Kenneth Cole NY Strawberry Hill Flat, on sale for US$88 at Heels.com
