1. A pair of chic flats featuring a stretchy knit upper that hugs the foot to give a sleek 'n' snug fit *without* painfully digging into your precious skin. Bonus! They're machine washable.

Walmart

Promising review: "Great pair of pointed toe flats with a tad bit of stretch. Super comfortable to wear for long periods of time. Nonslip bottom, memory foam insole, and somewhat breathable upper. I have NOT done so, but they look like you could throw them in the washing machine if needed." —Cheryl

Price: $17.98 (available in sizes 6–11 and five colors)

2. A pair of milky-white platform penny loafers since they've got a timeless style that looks just darling with jeans, skirts, or dresses. Oh! And BTW, they've got dreamy memory foam insoles, too.

Walmart

Promising review: "Love them. Stylish, comfortable, and true to size. Look more expensive than they are. So versatile, too!" —Calie

Price: $11.95 (available in sizes 6–11)

3. A classic mesh athletic sneaker to keep you stylishly supported (without overheating) as you're out and about doing errands or walking around the block. Some reviewers even say they're better than the ones from much more expensive brands!

Walmart

Promising reviews: "These are my favorite shoes. I have them in every color possible! I suffer from severe rheumatoid arthritis and have spent so much money on very expensive shoes, and these are the best! The only problem is that they're always sold out. Please, please try to keep them in stock more. They're wonderful." —anonymous

"I have mobility issues, and these tennis shoes help keep me grounded. They are well-made, sturdy, and come in a wide range of widths. They are comfortable and have plenty of room to wiggle your toes without feeling like your circulation will be cut off. I have had them several months, wear them every day, and they still look new." —Jennifer

Price: $17.98 (available in sizes 6–11, two widths, and eight colors/styles)

4. Some chocolate brown faux-leather riding boots so you can strut around like an English Duchess heading out for a ride in the countryside, aka full of self-confidence *and* style.

6. Some slide sandals with a pillowy sole that's so soft, cushiony, and cloud-like, you'll hardly want to take them off — and since these versatile bbs can be worn indoors and outdoors, you can pretty much wear them 24/7.

Walmart

Promising review: "Comfortable, my goodness, my feet feel as if I'm walking on clouds. I have looked everywhere and purchased many slides, but these slides are the best. Fits perfectly." —Cheyenne

7. A pair of leather two-strap sandals if you want the oh-so-trendy Birks look at a MUCH cheaper price. They've got a similar natural cork footbed that offers great arch support, and according to one reviewer, feels "like walking on a cloud." YEP, I'm sold.

Walmart

Promising reviews: "These sandals look just like Berks but are a fraction of the price. I have only worn them a couple of times, but they were comfy and cute. I got black and off-white. I expect to live in them this summer!" —SaavyGal

"I love these!! Got these for my daughter's Easter basket, and I know she'll love them. She really wanted some Birks, but they are just too pricey. These Project Cloud slides are close enough, tho. Tried them on because we are pretty much the same size, and they fit perfectly! And super comfy!!! Like walking on a cloud! Of course, I haven't worn them around, but hopefully they'll hold up on my 14-year-old daughter." —Walmart Customer

Walmart

Promising review: "I bought these shoes specifically for my vacation to NYC last week, and I wore them every day, and they held up SOOO well. They looked so cute and are bright white. Comfortable enough to walk around NYC for nine days, which is amazing considering the price! Ordering more now!" —Amber

Price: $17.98 (available in sizes 7–12, including wide options, and in three colors)

9. A sophisticated square-toe mule with just an itty-bitty heel and delicate piping at the toe because you're the kind of person who cares about the details...and these details take the shoe from simple to ~elegant~.

Walmart

Promising review: "These are so comfortable and can be styled up or down. They are a little small, or if you're on the fence, size up." —Juliana

Price:$34.48+ (available in sizes 6–12 and five colors)

10. A pair of silver platform sneakers ready to provide an instant *glam boost* to any plain ol' outfit.

Walmart

Promising review: "I fell in love with this pair of shoes the first time I saw them. They are comfortable, so chic, and they are worth the price. I love how soft the material on the shoes are as well. They are easy to slip on. They have a great lightweight design. Additionally, they have the perfect color combination. I highly recommend it." —Eliana

Price: $9.94+ (available in sizes 6–11 and in one other color)

11. A pair of scrunch ballet flats you can tuck away in your purse for later...later being during the wedding reception when you realize those fancy heels you wore are A) super uncomfy and B) definitely not fit for dancing.

Walmart

Promising review: "Absolutely the best shoe for this price. I bought these for a wedding and they didn't disappoint. They're comfortable, and the sleek, simple design helps to easily match any outfit. There are so many color options, and I truly need a pair in every color. These can easily be dressed down with some skinny jeans and a cute top or paired with that holiday dress or dress pants outfit. I would purchase these over and over and over again!" —Cheryl

Price:$12.98 (available in sizes 6–11, including wide options, and three colors)

Walmart

Promising review: "Bought for a Vegas weekend. The only shoes I wore all weekend. We walked an average of 4 miles each day and had no issues. Very comfortable, stylish enough for casual or a business look at night. Ordered a second pair for next summer. Have both black and brown." —darlene

Price: $19.98 (available in sizes 6–11 and six colors)

13. An espadrille wedge sandal for when you want to look super cute but also plan on walking a million miles *cough cough* summer Europe trip *cough cough*.

Walmart

Promising review: "True to size. I have narrow, slim feet, and these fit perfectly. It's hard to find shoes for thinner feet. The straps hold the shoe in place nicely. The height is not too high, making it comfy to walk in. I wore these for about five hours at an event, and my feet did not hurt." —Agatha

Price: $11.44+ (originally $17.98; available in sizes 6–11 and two colors)

Price: $24.98 (available in sizes 5.5–9 and three colors)

15. A high top tennis sneaker if you love the old-school aesthetic but wouldn't mind a few extra inches in height. Heck, now maybe you'll even be able to reach things off the top shelves at the grocery store (maybe).

Walmart

Promising review: "These high top tennies are perfect! I have looked for a pair with a black top and black soles for a long time. I was thrilled when I saw these No Boundaries version.

Price: $11.96+ (available in sizes 6–11 and seven colors)

16. A lace-up heel that'll make a serious style statement as you walk onto the dance floor at your cousin's wedding. Best of all, the thick block heel offers plenty of support for the actual dancing part, too.

Walmart

Promising review: "YOU NEED THESE SHOES. I have them in black and red and just ordered the tan ones, too. These heels are so comfy and the perfect height. I have worn them everywhere to prom and to church on Easter Sunday. They run true to size and fit so nicely. WORTH IT!" —Macy

Price: $42.99+ (available in sizes 5–10.5 and 15 colors)

17. Some buckle clogs in case you're not ready to give up the convenience of your slippers...but also don't want your feet to overheat. These are cozy, but not overly warm (especially if you don't wear socks), meaning you can slide them on for errands or lounging most days of the year.

Walmart

Promising review: "These are perfect! These fit super perfectly. They might be small with a thick sock, though. I got the cream color, and they will match EVERYTHING! Can't wait for fall now." —Rachel

Price: $22.98+ (available in sizes 6–11 and six colors)

18. A comfy and supportive Chelsea rain boot since it's extremely cute and versatile — we're talking footwear that can handle pretty much any weather condition and almost all types of terrain, and do so in style.

Walmart

Promising review: "These boots are so versatile, cute, and comfortable! They slide on easily and have plenty of support and cushion to wear all day. They also have good tread, so they don't slip. They are waterproof and rugged. And they clean up easily by just wiping them off. The texture of the boot doesn't look like a classic shiny rain boot. It looks more like a regular boot. They're very nice, so I can wear them to work, and if I'm working in the yard, mud, or water. Very versatile" —Traci

Price: $27.98 (available in sizes 6–10)

19. A faux-suede pointed-toe loafer for when you have an important school or work presentation, but know that wearing heels would totally ruin your confidence. Enter: These bold and powerful ~boss babe~ shoes with no more than a shadow of a heel.

Walmart

Promising reviews: "These shoes are very comfortable and are good quality. I would definitely recommend you wear these with or without pantyhose or socks." —Shontelle

"These are AMAZING!!! I'm shocked at how beautiful and classy they are. The quality is fantastic! They are not stiff at all — very supple. Buying in another color now! I run between an 8.5 and a 9, so I purchased the 9. I am surprised the 9 is a touch snug, but they do just fit, and I think they'll stretch over time." —Annie

Price: $19.99+ (originally $30.88; available in sizes 5–11 and eight colors)

20. A pair of round-toe boots with an impressive resume of stylish details: a block heel, center seam, stretchy gore accents, AND a shiny O-ring zipper. Yep, they're hired!

Price: $21.99 (available in sizes 5.5–9 and three colors)

23. A pair of slip-on mesh sneakers with a design that feels more like a lightweight sock than a clunky athletic shoe. Reviewers say they stretch and mold to your foot, helping to alleviate foot pain (including "big toe" arthritis) and toe smushing.

Walmart

Promising review: "I am extremely impressed with the comfort, quality, and value of these shoes. I have orthotics to make walking more comfortable from my podiatrist. It is hard to find shoes that fit well when I wear them. These shoes are perfect for this purpose. I spent a considerable amount of time shopping for another pair of shoes that match the functionality of these. I finally gave up and just purchased a second pair of these for myself. I love the fit. They feel as though they were tailor-made for my feet. The unique design assures that they stay snugly on my feet. No shifting as I walk. Brilliant. My feet do not hurt at all when wearing these shoes, even after a long day of chasing my toddler grandchildren around the shopping mall. These shoes are well constructed out of durable materials, so I feel that they will last me a very long time, making them an absolutely terrific value. I highly recommend these comfortable shoes." —Walmart Customer

Price: $23.99 (available in sizes 5–10 and seven colors)

24. An open-toe low-wedge sandal since it just might be the Goldilocks of summer sandals: Not too high and not too low with juuuust the right amount of strappy details (including an ankle strap that'll keep it from shifting around and causing blisters)!

Walmart

Promising review: "Love the shoes — comfortable and stylish." —valerie

Price: $24.29+ (available in sizes 6–10 and five colors — not all sizes available in all colors)
