Sometimes a trend comes along so loud and audacious, it sends all sartorial practicality out the window. Yes, capsule wardrobes are sensible and neutral colour palettes will always be in style but, if we’re being honest with ourselves, there really is nothing more joy inducing than treating yourself to an item that really wows.
If this is appealing to your inner fashion maximalist, you’re in for a treat because I’m about to introduce the latest trend I’ve been spotting everywhere in recent months and it’s here to seriously shake up your shoe game. Say hello to this season’s statement heels.
And, i'm not just talking about a smattering of embellishment or a hint of glitter, this season the term statement really lives up to its name. From 3D flowers to coquette inspired bows and corsages, all have gone supersized in high octane shades and show stopping fabrics. Aquazzura are even pushing it a step further with tiny embellished fruit so you can live the island lifestyle right down to your shoes.
If you're wondering how to wear these styles, I'd recommend not saving them for best. Rather than wearing them with occasion wear or party pieces, pair them with everything from jeans to your best summer dresses. The key is to not look too done so keeping things relaxed alongside your heels is the chicest way to go.
So, without further a do, here's my edit of the best statement heels to shop right now. Alongside sky high stilettos, you'll also find kitten heels and easy-to-wear mules so no matter your style you can get involved in the trend. Happy shopping...
