Wear the versatile staple with leggings, jeans, or casual dresses. 

MAKE THE GRADE –ANNA 

The Anna ballet flat can be worn with basically anything in your closet. It has a simple and sweet design, but a closer look reveals amazing comfort details such as interior lining and an elasticized topline for flexibility. Wear with a fitted blazer to your internship, or a sweater and Tartan skirt combo for a student functions. Anna is also light enough to tote in a backpack or overnight bag when visiting the fam back home. 

TRENDY & TEXTURED – FUR TRIM BOOTIE 

Sneakers are one of the biggest college fashion trends, and this dressed-up version is a standout. Designed by fashion influencer Lottie Moss, the Fur Trim Bootie is a stylish bootie/sneaker hybrid with a sporty sole and faux fur lining. For even more interesting texture, the outer is constructed with leather and suede. Wear with a floral dress for a modern look, or go casual with high-waist boyfriend jeans and a cropped sweatshirt.
