If there's one single trend that's infiltrating all areas of our closets, it's bubblegum pink. Since we first noted the flirty hue from the S/S 21 runways, it's kept popping up everywhere we look, from handbags coated in pretty shades of pink to pops of pink in the swimwear section. But I'll let you in on a secret: There's one iteration on the pink trend train that I personally think is the superior way to wear the hue, and that is pink heels. Even before the color was trending as hard as it currently is, I've always had a soft spot for a pair of bright-pink heels. They're fun, they're iconic (who could forget Barbie's epic platform pair?), and they bring a whole lot of look.
If you're understandably skeptical about the staying and styling power bright-pink heels can have, keep reading—I've rounded up the 28 best pairs of pink heels to shop right now.
