Walk Like A Teacher

Consider this to be my official love letter to Sarah Flint. I sipped the Kool-Aid back in October and I haven’t looked back since. You would think living in Manhattan, and walking practically everywhere, would have taught me a thing or two about comfortable footwear. That knowledge actually comes from six years in the classroom as a teacher. When you’re on your feet, constantly pacing for eight hours a day, it’s crucial to find footwear that will last. Sarah Flint is the answer! If you’re someone who is one their feet all day, here’s the top pieces you should have in your rotation.
Loafers
To me, this is the ultimate footwear choice. I had a pair of black loafers that I wore almost every day in New York. Sadly, they weren’t Sarah Flint and had to be retired because of the quality. Now that I have a hole in my shoe selection, my next pair will definitely be the Alysia. I can’t decide if I need the black or sepia colors. Either way, I won’t go wrong!
Ballet Flats
If you find the loafer to be slightly too masculine, then you’ll love the Natalie! Meghan Markle has been a fan for quite some time. If it’s good enough for royalty, then it’s good enough for me. The rich saddle leather color will work with anything in your wardrobe. I also saw a sneak peek at a light sand color that I can’t wait to see in person!
Low Block Heels
I am constantly getting question about how (and why) I teach in heels so often. The why is because I have several students who already tower over me. It’s really hard to manage a group of students when you have to look up to do it. You instantly lose a touch of credibility. The how is by wearing the Perfect Emma. I promise you, she really is perfect! I have the black suede pair (styled here), but I already want to add more colors to my collection. They are just as comfortable as a pair of flats with even more style!
Booties
If you teach (and live) in colder weather, you need a pair of functional and versatile booties. I don’t really have to worry about that now in Florida, but the Perfect Zip Bootie would be my first choice! There are two different height options to fit your comfort level. The rich black leather looks incredibly chic, especially for the winter.
Flat Sandals
Is there anything better than sliding into a pair of sandals for work? I can’t think of any, except for maybe making them comfortable sandals. The Grear is a Grecian, wrap style that will make you just itching to go on vacation. It’s exotic, but still sensible. I can’t wait to bring a pair on my big trip (probably Peru) this summer.
Hopefully, you do a little something every day to help you feel pampered. Splurge on perfume, trips to the nail salon, and spa days. While all of that is important, don’t forget to treat the base of it all, your feet too. If you have any questions about certain Sarah Flint styles and sizing, feel free to reach out!
