Sure, dad sneakers are cool–but have you ever tried “mom mules”? The very ladylike–and apparently “mom-ish”–trend of low mule heels is what Who What Wear points out is the next big “bizarre/ugly” shoe trend that’s actually SO chic.

As a refresher, “ugly” is the new pretty (we’re looking at you, cycle shades) and especially when it comes to footwear. You’ve probably been seeing these 90s inspired kitten heel mule sandals all over your Instagram feed–but you might not know that the term “mom mules” has been coined for them.

According to WWW, countless bloggers and tastemakers have been wearing them–no child required.

So, what do you think–would you wear Mom Mules??
