Don't you just love when fashion and function actually converge in one item? Rare as it is, these women's loafers offer everything from a little sass to a little heel, so you can add just a hint of fun to pretty much any everyday outfit. It doesn't get much better than finding a pair of shoes that can take you from work to home without any discomfort, while still keeping your fashion in check. Don't let your style loaf when it comes to your next pair of loafers! Read on to see some of the coolest (and comfiest!) looks around.
Why not kick off our little loafer conversation with something a bit unexpected? Tod's 'Heaven Laccetto Loafers' may showcase the classic loafer shape, but their coloring definitely keeps things fresh, funky, and fun. We've all heard of blue suede shoes, but how many of us actually own some? If you aren't really into the blues, not to worry, you can also slide on these cozy classics in a fabulously bright magenta! Leather lined, complete with exterior contrast stitching, grommets, and metal-tipped tie closure these cool kicks take a classic, casual look and up their style through color choice and unique detailing.

The rubber dotted sole is prime for keeping you on your feet, without detracting from the shoe's flat height. Constructed in Italy, you can count on the fact that the materials used and careful attention to detail will last you season in and out. Plus, we love the white leather tie that weaves along the top of the siding, and ties in a bow at the top of the shoe, for a quick kick to the ever-so-popular nautical boat shoe. Couple these cool kicks with your favorite pair of khakis, or light wash denim boot cut jeans for a preppy, or casual feel. You really cannot go wrong with these if you're on the hunt for loafers with a little kick.
Now that we've covered our favorite pick for something with a little sass, it's time to check out a classically versatile ladies' loafer. Timberland's 'Plymouth Driver' shoe is the perfect pick for those of you looking to slide into a comfortable, cute, and truly workable shoe. Available in olive, dark brown, and black, this suede loafer boasts a chocolate or black strap across the top of the foot, complete with silver grommets, for a cool, finished feel that keeps things interesting. This super lightweight, comfortable shoe bodes an EVA footbed for lasting support, and its flexible rubber sole offers fantastic gripping. Couple this cute, function-forward shoe with your favorite pair of green slacks, or keep things casual with wide leg jeans. No matter your specific flavor of fashion, these shoes offer a fabulous starting point for comfort and class.
If you can appreciate a solid flat, but really want a feminine take on a traditional loafer, Merona's 'Madda Buckle Loafers are the perfect pick for you. This truly affordable shoe is one of the cutest options we've seen for women. Available in a light gold (complete with slight sheen,) this shoe features small strips of warm caramel colored leather along the back heel, and over the top of the foot. The three-quarter-inch stacked heel combined with traditional rounded toe and cool whip stitching along the sides make for a fabulous balance between the expected and unexpected! Pair these puppies with navy blue slacks for work or a khaki skirt for coffee with the girls, and you'll be all set for a fun, unique look.
