If you’re anything like me, sometimes, style takes priority over comfort. Especially if you’re looking for the perfect picture moment on your Europe trip (like Moi). But as I was prepping for my upcoming family vacation and planning out my looks, I decided to opt for chic patent leather flats on my day of exploration in Paris. Fully knowing we were going to be walking down the Champs-Élysées to the Eiffel Tower, and going up the many steps of Montmartre, I decided to put all my faith in these sleek, little black ballet flats I snagged from J.Crew the day before my flight. Spoiler Alert: They survived rain, gravel, and cobblestones. The best part? So did my feet (no pesky blisters or anything).

As your fellow E! shopping editor who's tried countless ballet flats, I can confidently say these truly surprised me—they kept their sheen and stayed scuff-free even after a full day of strolling through Paris (and I mean nonstop, FULL day). If you’re still not convinced, the $33 price tag on these Italian patent leather Mary Jane ballet flats will be the cherry on top. So, what are you waiting for? Add these pointed-toe beauties to your cart ASAP while they are over 70% off on J.Crew right now.
Plus, keep scrolling for other special ballet flat mentions from J.Crew that are also *add-to-cart worthy*.
Editor's Pick:
J.Crew Pointed-toe Mary Jane ballet flats in Italian patent leather
Made from luxe Italian patent leather and featuring a buckle Mary Jane strap, these pointed-toe beauties complete any outfit and pair best with wide-leg jeans. Trust me, they're secure and so comfortable, that you'll never want to take them off.
More Special Mentions:
J.Crew Quinn square-toe ballet flats in leather
Leave the heels at home and opt for a square-toe ballet flat. Not only are they easy to walk in and belong in any capsule wardrobe, but they also feature a pretty grosgrain bow and are made from shiny leather.
J.Crew Teagan ballet pumps in patent leather
Similar to the patent leather flat I opted for on my trip, this Teagan version features a slight pump for that extra bit of height.
J.Crew Square-toe ballet flats in satin
Although these satin flats are currently on pre-order (until January 14), I couldn't help but sneak them into my roundup because of their luxe Emily in Paris look. I'll be snagging a pair in that gorgeous Parisian red (and so should you).
