I'm looking for some women's shoes like those worn in this photo. I'm not sure what they would be called other than maybe flats or oxfords. Neither is specific enough to help me find them.

Links to shoes like these or just what they might be called would be righteous. Thanks. They're probably thrifted based on the rest of that outfit, but any leads would be helpful.

Look to me like women's wing tips. Google it and you will find many.

The words you are looking for are flat brogues.

MOMA and Fiorentini & Baker make some similar styles. And here's a canvas version from Toast UK.

you can get something similar at urban outfitters. they look more like jazz shoes, though, ithink.

You might like some of the women's shoes at cydwoq.com--some look rather similar, especially to the multi-colored leather pieces.
