I'm going to Paris this spring and would rather save my money for shopping there then here. (Have you entered my $25 Amazon.com Gift Certificate Giveaway? Just click here and tell me what I should pack for Paris.) Still, I do need a few things, like comfortable footwear. This weekend, a bunch of shoe sites are having sales, so I decided to see what was available online. I started out looking for sensible walking shoes, but was instantly distracted by the many lovely spring flats in gorgeous colors. We got off easy weather-wise this winter in the Northeast, but still, I'm ready for spring and its fresh colors. Here's sample of flats in daffodil yellow, tulip purple, and new grass green. Not all the styles are on sale and one or two might require a splurge. But most, like the Anne Klein Seana Casual Flat
NINE WEST

Tommy Hilfiger Women's Pearl Slip-On
Yes, yes--I'm aware that this next style is a sandal, not a flat. But the color just knocked me out and I had to share.

OLD NAVY
It's hard to beat Old Navy for low-priced shoes. The other great thing: the product reviews. Old Navy shoppers love to tell others how they feel about the site's products. I find that a big help. Here are a few flats that have gotten good customer feedback.

Old Navy Women's Cap Toe Canvas Ballet Flats
Navy will always be a spring color in my mind. I'm loving these retro loafers in navy. They're also available in bright yellow.

SHOPBOP
I know women who will scrimp on everything in the wardrobe, so they can splurge on shoes. If you are one of those women, you might like these next very sophisticated Elizabeth and James Kimi Hidden Wedge Flats
