This post is in partnership with Sarah Flint.
I’m pleased as punch to be an Ambassador for Sarah Flint. I’ve been a fan of theirs for years and am thrilled to just have joined their fabulous team of ambassadors. I partner with brands I love and adore, and I’m thrilled to share the wonderful world of Sarah Flint with you all.
When I first moved to Washington, D.C. there was one thing I quickly noticed: it seemed like everyone had a pair of flats on them – whether they were wearing them or not. It’s a very conservative town as far as professional attire goes. That means tailored dresses, blazers, and smart trench coats.
Having a good pair of flats is crucial in a city that loves to walk – and where lunch, drinks, and shops are all a quick jaunt away. Oh, how I wish I’d found Sarah Flint in those early days. I went through tons of flats that were either practical but lacking style or cute but not comfortable.
Enter Sarah Flint and her fabulous “perfect” shoes. The Natalie flats are quite honestly game-changing. I’ve found myself – a tailored dress and 105mm fan – opting for cropped trousers instead so that I can have an excuse to stay in these little gems all day and not just if I’m heading out for a salad and a juice.

Work chatter aside, these flats have been the mainstay of my “work from home” wardrobe, and they are truly weekend warriors. They blend style and comfort effortlessly – and I love the slightly askew modern nod to a bow. They’re so comfortable that I honestly forget I’m wearing “real shoes” when I’m around the house. The extra padding is ahhmazing. And, I love that it also saves me $25 instantly and a trip to the cobbler because a rubber protective sole is already there.
The sizing follows European sizing, though I suggest sizing up a half size. I’m a size 40 in most European brands and a 9.5 in most U.S. brands, but I went with a 40.5 to be on the safe side. Flats are always tricky! I found that I’m that same 40.5 in the Natalie flats and in the block heels as well. If you have questions on sizing, send me a DM on Instagram or comment in the comments section below. I’m happy to help out! I also can’t recommend reaching out to the Sarah Flint team on their website either. They are fabulous on recommending what styles and sizes to try.
My style has evolved so much since I first started out, and I’m very much a quality over quantity person. These can certainly be a splurge, but, to me, they’re an investment. Even though this pair was gifted to me, I wouldn’t hesitate for a minute in purchasing them myself. In fact, they are an addition to my already-there Sarah Flint collection! Sarah Flint and her team source from the most experienced Italian artisans in the industry, and it’s all done by hand, the old-fashioned way. I so appreciate the attention to detail. It makes all the difference in the world!
The Natalie’s I’m wearing are in their brand new Sand Calf color. Not too light and not too tan, it’s a fabulous neutral for these warmer months – and a fabulous first pair if you’re on the market. I’m eyeing them in that gorgeous saddle vachetta next!
If you decide to treat yourself this Hump Day with a new pair, be sure to use this link for $50 off your first purchase. Cheers, lovely friends!
Thank you to Sarah Flint for gifting me the pair of shoes shown in this post. I only work with brands I love and adore and am thrilled to be a part of Sarah Flint’s ambassador program.
