Ballet flats have become an everyday basic for nearly everyone.  Even high heel lovers probably all have at least one pair!  Here are some nice options in classic black:

Vera Wang Lavender ‘Lillian’ Black Ballet Flat, $195.  This is about as classic as it comes, perfect round toe and smooth leather.

Tory Burch ‘Reva’ Black Sequin Ballet Flat, $235.  A dressy look with sequins.

French Sole ‘Season’ Black Nappa Ballet Flat, $125.  I love the leather flower on the toe!
