    I only wear flats and Clark's is my go-to brand. I have about 5 pairs of the same sandals in different colors! At home, I wear Crocks.

    I'm not sure how casual you can go- but Sanuks are my most favorite shoe! They are made out of recycled yoga mats = super comfy! :)

    I have Clarks walking shoes and several pairs of Sketchers and love them all. I find that for distance walking though, the Clarks are better but the Sketchers are great for day to day wear.

    For dressy flats I go with whatever Clark's currently has that I like. For casual flats, it's Toms for sure. :) I LOVE that they come in about 8 billion different colors/patterns, but all have the same fit. I think that Toms and Skechers Bobs are really similar.

    I am firmly in the sketchers camp. I stalk up when they have a sale. Once in awhile I might find a DR Scholls flat or sneaker at Walmart I can wear. But sketchers is my go to shoe for anything that needs to be a cut above sneakers or flip flops.

    I also have very high arches so an open flat is the way I generally go. Sketchers are rounded at the toe as well so work well if your feet are a bit wide.
