French Sole arguably make the best ballet flats around: this pair from V for Vintage are just $68 and ooze Audrey Hepburn chic.
They're made from suede and have all the great detailing of a quality pump including rubber tipped heels and drawstring. Team them with cropped black trousers and a loose boat neck jumper for a Gallic chic look. If you really want to get the look watch Jean Seberg in Breathless, she has beatnik chic down pat!

When you think jazz shoes, you probably think pretty t-bar heels you can dance in right? Well here's a different kind of jazz shoe for you. Made by Penny Loves Kenny (I just adore the cute brand name), these lace up leather Jazz shoes will set you back just £30 and could have you dancing all night due to their lack of a high heel and rubber sole. Available in a a handful of contrasting colours, my favourite are definitely the silver pair with a black toe tip. I think they'd look great if you wanted to channel Charlie Chapman in them too, just BYO top hat and suit.

Vintage wedge sandals are one of my classic favourite shoe styles, they are a gratifying combination of geek and girly and the small wedge means they're perfect for everyday wear. Peppermint Vintage's pair come in a gorgeous sunny yellow and are only $19. Team them with high-waisted shorts, vest top and a neck scarf tied in a bow for a cute and sassy summer look.

These shoes are heaven, a little bit of woven leather for that '80s vibe, a flattering low vamp and super cute two hole lace up maketh a dream shoe. The deep cherry red colour is gorgeous and would look nauti-licious with some navy tights and shorts. Snap these babies up for a mere $30 from V is for Vintage.

Curse my large feet, for nearly every pair of vintage shoes I've fallen in love with has been too small. Take these gorgeous suede lace-ups, the colour is so rich, the coutouts are fab and and they bear a curious resemblance to a pair of Office shoes I saw a few months ago. They're a mere $24 from Rusty Zipper Vintage which is bargainous but unfortunately they come in a US size 7 which is far too small for my plates of meat. If you're dainty of foot snap them up as they're perfect for topping off a retro outfit and would look great with tweed skirts or trouser suits.

These vintage shoes ($19) have party written all over them! The scalloped detailing and ankle strap make the shoe a little girly but there's some kind of trashy vibe about them that I just love. I want to wear them to an '80s party with a prom dress, smudged lipstick and backcombed bouffant hair and lean against the wall bitterly complaining about the all the frat boys and jocks.

Cute and colourful, these vintage Stuart Weitzman wedges have a great cutout on the heel which is lined in 80's-tastic gold.
I love the cobalt blue, it's really intense and will add a pop of colour to any outfit. They're $65 from Rice and Beans Vintage and also have a nice gold buckle with fan-strap.
