We knew we wanted loafers — a nice pair of smoking slippers [1] we could wear with our cropped denim, flouncy summer dresses, and tailored shorts. Perhaps we'd go for a pastel shade or a style embroidered with a quirky print. But, then, Kate Upton stepped out in these floral-embellished Dolce & Gabbana loafers and sparked some serious inspiration. Our search to find similar flirty-meets-functional flats was fueled with major ambition. And we found 14 pairs of shoes that fit the bill. From jewel accents to eyelet [2] trimming, the steppers below have the details that will make you want to wear them all Summer long. Scroll down to shop!
