If I'm going to be honest here, it's been a minute since I've even thought about wearing heels let alone wear them. But as the summer of reemergence approaches with events throughout the calendar, I'm ready to add a few to my wardrobe rotation. I'm not ready for stilettos quite yet (I'm looking at you, Amina Muaddi), but I'm settling on easy slip-on mules, strappy sandals, and platforms galore. They may not make me look six feet tall, but they'll add just the right amount of height needed to bring my outfit to the next level.
As I plan for going out again, I've found myself heel shopping a little too often lately. Can you blame me? The summer mood has set in. Anyways, I thought I'd share my finds just in case you're also not a heels person looking to buy a pair. Keep scrolling to shop my picks.
I love a good pop of color, and this pair comes in three color options to choose from.
We created the perfect summer shoes.
If I'm going to buy a pair of staple black sandals, this would have to be it.
Pumps usually have a taller heel, so this is perfect for those who want something a little subtler.
I love the gold chain.
This is the right way to do wedge heels.
Simple and sophisticated.
Minty fresh.
These will surely be in your closet for years.
Talk about statement heels.
A price you can't beat.
I think thin straps look so delicate and elegant.
This will be the center point of any look.
This takes your average mule up a notch with the ruched detailing.
Y2K vibes, and they're on sale.
Get your party dress ready.
When you want the heights but not the blisters.
BY FAR can do no wrong, and the brand proves that with these pastel-pink heels.
I'm shocked these are still in stock.
Zara does animal print so well with these sandals. They look twice as expensive than they really are.
