The Aerosoles Women's Celia Ballet Flat is designed with an eye for fashion and comfort. One of the standout features is the Core Comfort Technology, which offers ample cushioning for long hours of wear, making them ideal for busy days at work or running errands. The use of vegan leather not only caters to ethical preferences but also provides a sleek appearance that's easy to maintain.
In terms of versatility, these flats score high. The nude combo color allows you to mix and match with various outfits, whether you're dressing up for a meeting or going for a more relaxed look. However, while they are stylish, some users might find the lack of arch support a drawback, especially if you have specific foot needs.
Care instructions are straightforward; being machine washable means you can keep them looking fresh without much hassle, which is a plus for those who value convenience. In comparison to similar options like the Sam Edelman Felicia and Naturalizer Marianne, the Celia offers a unique blend of elegance and ethical manufacturing but may fall short in arch support.

They do run big. I wear 7.5 whileThese in 7 are perfect. Nice cute shoes, comfy from the first day.
I've been a loyal Aerosoles fan for years, and this is the first issue of it's kind I've experience (with any brand). I purchased an 8.5 wide. The heel starts exactly at the back of the shoe, and is straight, not at all angled at the bottom back, or set forward. The heel seems narrower from back of the shoe to the front of my natural heel bottom, than I've ever been aware of. You can feel precisely where the heel ends, too far short of where your arch begins. The heel is also disproportionately rigid for the thinness and flexibility of rest of the sole. The result is that when standing, I feel the termination or edge of the heel block sitting under the bottom of my own heel, but not supporting the whole heel, and one should never feel that, even in a flat shoe. When walking, the inflexible flat-bottomed heel falls flat on the ground first, and pulls the sole away from my under the arch of my foot, before I've rounded my step to the ball of my foot, resulting in my being aware of this awkward two-part step, rather than a rounded heel-to-toe step. This would not be as noticeable in a higher-heeled shoe, but one doesn't expect it in a ballet flat. (Imagine glueing a flat straight heel to a pair of socks, for example.) There is no discernible arch support in the shoe (I wasn't looking for that), but it might have made a difference with this particular heel. I think the heel should have been deeper/longer from back to middle to cover the entirety of a natural heel, and/or been a flexible material, and/or the sole should have been stronger/thicker to diminish the sensation that I'm standing on something imprecisely matched to my own heel. It is possible that purchasing insoles/supports might make a difference because I'm happy with the appearance of the shoe and the feel of the toe box.
They're pretty but the run just a tiny bit short. They're well made, great materials. Good all around shoe with jeans, shorts, slacks or dress.
I chose these for a try on through Amazon Prime Wardrobe. Took them out of the box and saw the bottom sole had became unglued from the shoe. Didn’t even try them on. Appeared too big and narrow. Didn’t exchange because it was too disappointing to see the shoe damaged like that.
