Got an irrational fear of toppling over the minute you slip on your sky-high stilettos for the evening? Samesies. And with the holiday season finally among us, we’re sure you’re already huffing and puffing at the mere thought of having to wear those babies all night, huh? We don’t blame you! It can get pretty scary up there, especially with a couple ofNaughty Rudolphs in your system (hehe). Well, Janes, we have some really good news for you:

You can ditch your heels and rock a pair of party flats instead!

Yeah, we said it. Bejeweled, metallic, oxford, smoking, d’Orsay, and a million other styles are totally acceptable, too. Woah, did we just hear a universal sigh of relief? We feel ya’ll. So if you foresee a night (or three) filled with drinks, dancing, and debauchery, you’re going to want to take this post seriously. But if you’re still not fully convinced, then these street-styled ladies should do the trick. Warning: ultra chic #OOTDs ahead!

Check out this collection of street-styled ladies incorporating flats into their festive attire.
