Trending..."Flat-Form"

The "Flat Form" trend is hitting hard this Spring season and to be honest, I'm not quite sure what to make of it. Is it a wedge? Is it a platform? It looks to me to be on the verge of a snazzy, orthopedic, fashion nightmare. I have yet to actually try a pair on but the flatter factor is questionable. 

The Madison Harding and Joe's interpretations of this style happen to be the most wearable versions IMO. The wooden heel, the multiple buckles and clog like styling speak to me. Although I am in limbo over this shoe silhouette, I cant help but be a little enticed by the extra boost these bad boys would give to my petite 5'3" frame. 

What do you think of the flat form? 

If any of these tickle your fancy, check out Solestruck or Shopbop their selection is the best I've seen...
