A slightly more structured option, the loafer gives you a city-ready look. Opt for loafers with a slim, thin sole, rather than the chunkier options, to keep things light and airy. Complete the look with a billowing, oversized button-up shirt or a cute, fitted tank top. This combo is perfect for the office, lunch in the city, or even running your errands.
