    FI and I are going to Italy for our honeymoon (yay!) which means lots of walking around.  I dont want to wear sneakers, but flip-flops dont provide enough support.  Does anyone have any recommendations for comfortable & cute ballet flats?  I've tried on the Cole Haan air ones, but the toe part comes half way up my foot which is not so cute (totally nothing close to toe clevage!)!  TIA!

    I really like the ballet flats from Kenneth Cole reaction. Puma also make some more stylish less athletic looking sneakers that might look okay.

     Have fun on your honeymoon!

    I know this isn't what a bride wants to hear... but I bought mine from the dyable line and dyed them a bright blue.  They are just a plain ballet flat that have ribbon you can tie around your leg (I removed this).  They are super comfortable, much like wearing a slipper.

    sorry!  I didn't read this for the honeymoon.  I really like j crew shoes, they are super comfortable.  I wear croc ballet flats when I have to walk a lot and they are also super comfortable (although not the cutest).

    Clarks! I bought some when I went to Italy in March, and I wore them every day. They're amazing!

    I second the Clarks recommendation! I have a pair of black leather ballet flats with such a cute gather on the toe. I can wear them ALL DAY when I teach, with or without socks, and my feet feel fabulous at the end of the day! I just got mine at a department store here in Canada, but they rock. Check them out.

    Make sure your ballet flats have enough support on the bottom to withstand hours of walking! Maybe a shoe on the sportier end of the ballet flat continuum would be good (sorry I don't have any brand recommendations).

    Aerosole does very comfortable ballet flats, I walk around in a pair all the time! And Skechers does some cute mary-jane-ish sneakers that might be a good compromise for walking a lot.
