Summer calls for an effortless, cool-girl aesthetic with flowy dresses, distressed denim, and easy, breezy style. Since cute sandals can leave you with blisters or unsightly tan lines on your feet, I’m swapping out my sandals for Tieks ballet flats this season.
These iconic foldable flats have amassed a cult following for good reason. Tieks takes the traditional ballet flat to new heights of luxury with Italian leather and fabric uppers. Each pair is constructed and hand-stitched to perfection in Italy.
Beyond its high-end materials and craftsmanship, Tieks delivers unbeatable comfort you won’t find in basic ballet flats. The built-in cushioning provides shock-absorbing arch support. This means you can actually walk for miles in Tieks without any aches or pains!
So you get the sophisticated look of a designer flat with the cozy feel of slippers. That’s why Tieks are the ultimate pick for effortlessly chic warm weather looks that keep you feeling fresh all day long.
Tieks’ elegance and versatility make them the ideal summer flat to complement any ensemble. Let’s break down how to style them for every occasion!
Casual Weekends
A comfortable flat is essential for errand-running and weekend festivals. Whether you pair Tieks with cut-off shorts or a breezy sundress, you’ll stay stylish while logging lots of steps.
For an on-trend summer look, try Tieks’ Rose Garden or Aquarella patterns with a flirty floral minidress. The coordinating prints add visual interest while the neutral tones keep the overall vibe casual.
If you prefer sleek solids, Tieks’ classic Blush Patent or Sand Snake flats instantly elevate structured looks like shirtdresses or tailored high-waisted shorts. You’ll appear polished without compromising comfort!
Beach Days and Nights
Easily take your Tieks from the beach or pool to dinner and beyond. The soft leather upper and interior allow feet to breathe and dry quickly after getting wet.
I love pairing Tieks’ classic Tangerine leather flats with a flowy beach cover-up for a pop of vibrant color against neutral swimwear. Or I’ll anchor a gauzy sundress with the Metallic Pewter shade for nighttime.
For an elegant evening look, try deep tones like Burgundy or Obsidian Black flats with printed sundresses or palazzo pants. You’ll be supremely comfortable while appearing dressed up!
Catch Flights, Not Blisters
Tieks’ innovative foldability makes them a must-pack travel companion. Each pair folds neatly into a compact pouch that barely takes up any suitcase space. Stash these featherweight flats in your carry-on for long-haul flights to avoid swollen feet.
Tieks like the California Navy or Chocolate Brown styles provide go-anywhere versatility. From sightseeing during day trips to beachside dinners, Tieks transition seamlessly. Pack just one pair to wear with everything!
Socially Conscious Style
Beyond its flats’ chic versatility and comfort, the brand also gets high marks for its socially conscious efforts to empower women globally. Tieks’ philanthropic Gavrieli Foundation issues microloans through Kiva to help underserved female entrepreneurs launch businesses.
To date, Tieks has loaned over $10 million to fund over 55,000 female entrepreneurs across 70-plus countries! The microloans provide economic empowerment to help lift marginalized women out of poverty.
Tieks further reinforces its commitment through philanthropic partnerships. It collaborates with organizations like Vital Voices to provide support, training, and mentorship for emerging women leaders worldwide.
Each purchase fuels the foundation’s mission, making Tieks a true fashion staple with real impact.
Tieks allows you to look chic while aligning your fashion choices and values. The brand’s commitment to female empowerment through economic opportunity is an inspiration. Each pair purchased represents a step toward progress.
