The recent little warm snap in Chicago has me dreaming of ditching the boots I’ve been wearing all winter and reintroducing myself to the rest of my shoe collection or perhaps adding a few fresh pairs to the mix as a reward for surviving this miserable winter. While I love a great pair of heels, city living has  turned me into a bit of a flats gal – they’re just the best for stashing in your bag for when you’re on the go or have a busy day on your feet.

So in case you’ve got new shoes on the brain like I do right now, I’ve pulled together 10 pairs of Budget Friendly flats, all under $50:

Darling Bow Flats // Striped Scrunch Flat // Miley Gold Anke Strap Flats 

// India Flat // Asymmetric Ballerina Flats // Paigge Flat // Globetrotter Loafer //

Moreover Pointy Toe Flat // Quilted Faux-Leather Flats // Fawkes Flats
