This Crista flat flaunts a chic square toe, not one but <em>two</em> buckle-clad Mary Jane straps, and the brand's proprietary Contour+ Comfort tech for plush landings sans impact. I liked donning the shoe with dark-wash <a rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank" href="https://wwd.com/shop/shop-fashion/best-straight-leg-jeans-1235161312/">straight-leg jeans</a>, billowing maxi skirts, and even <a rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank" href="https://wwd.com/shop/shop-fashion/how-to-style-capri-pants-trend-1237986036/">capri pants</a> during my rounds of testing. If you have a wider foot, like I do, you might want to think about adjusting said straps to accommodate its proportions or simply buying the style in Wide. Otherwise, the Crista fits like a second skin and goes a long way in beautifying even the most casual of ensembles. (Leopard print? Why, it's a neutral!)<br><br><strong>All in all:</strong> When you wish to look good without sacrificing arch support and allover cushioning, turn to the Naturalizer Crista Mary Jane Flat. It aces one of fall's hottest designs while prioritizing what's most important — your comfort.
