Bored of ballet flats? Tired of trainers? While we’re all for comfort dressing, sometimes all an outfit needs to take it from zero to 100 is a standout pair of shoes – and this summer, we’re reaching for unexpected, colourful kitten heels to add a pop of colour to everyday looks.
We are loving the comeback of kitten heels in vibrant shades. Suddenly the trusty jeans we wear on rotation can been given a completely new look just by switching up our shoes, teaming them with one of this season’s biggest footwear trends. The best part is how comfortable kitten heels are compared to the higher heels that have been abounding over recent seasons. Chic enough to rival stilettos without being torturous to walk in, these are heels we can fully embrace.
In addition to hot pinks, royal blues, and even some embellished options (like Irish designer Nicki Hoyne’s playful designs), kitten heels are a great way to add a touch of animal print to your outfit without going overboard. Whether you opt for low slingbacks, pumps or open-toed mules, shop our curated selection of kitten heels below from luxury options to high-street picks.
