Hey Heidi, Phia here, your personalized shopping assistant. I added some picks for you below.
Our Selects For Heidi

Why this edit and not a generic one
Eight pairs instead of a wall of shoes. The mix leans clean lines over decoration, which is the throughline in what you gravitate toward, and Vince fits right in. Check heel height and how far each one walks before the label.
Shoes
Darla Suede Ballet Flats
Vince

Zoe Platform Sandal In Diamond Suede
Free People

Shift Webbing and Leather Trimmed Mesh and Suede Sneakers
Gucci
Stardan Low Top Sneakers
Golden Goose
Carolina 55MM Suede Over-The-Knee Boots
Ulla Johnson

Free People
What this ties into right now
Golden Goose Sneakers is among the most searched queries on Phia right now, and that is the current this edit is riding. The same instinct runs through Vince, Free People and Gucci here: recognisable shape, quiet finish, nothing that dates in a season. The versions I picked are the plainer ones in each label's line rather than the loudest.
