Have you been staring at the heels in your wardrobe wondering when will they see the light of day again? We admit, comfy and snug sandals made us miss them a little less at the start of the pandemic. But it’s been over a year and we fear our feet have forgotton what walking in heels even feels like (yikes!). Also, the impact of a statement heel can change the mood of your whole look. It can breathe new life into old outfits and ensure you never go unnoticed. Since things are opening up and life takes some form of normalcy again, we want to make a bang with a pair of statement heels. Nothing like a little retail therapy to boost your mood and your wardrobe – am I right? There is no dearth of good statement heels on the luxury fashion market and we’ve carefully selected some fabulous pieces that you must shop this season!
Rene Caovilla is a name synonymous with elegance and femininity. We have a soft corner for strappy sandals and nobody makes those better than them. The now popular coil strap that goes up your legs is definitely a style statement and we’ve spotted the perfect shoe to mark your entry back into the social scene. Behold this glamorous piece by Rene Caovilla that covers your legs in swirls of pearls and crystals! We suggest pairing it with an LBD for a night out but you can get creative and pair it with shimmery skirts or lamé gowns too. This is one hot piece and you won’t regret shopping it! We can’t stop staring at this.
If you’re not ready to go full-blown glamorous, don’t worry. There are some gorgeous pieces that make a great pair for day events too. The Bottega Veneta feathery heels linked below are playful and fun with the right punch of color. You can style these with a bright pant suit, skirts, dresses. They really make a world of a difference paired with wardrobe staples. The ostrich feather takes centre stage with a thong styled toe post keeps the rest of the design minimal. Another playful pair of statement heels that are super cute too are the Aquazzura Tutti Frutti leather and raffia sandals. You must’ve guessed that these heels feature fruit in some way. We bet you didn’t imagine bunches of fruit all along the strap! That’s exactly what makes these a statement pair – they’re out there and so chic for the summer! The tie-ups travel up the ankle and take some fruit with them to keep the fun going. Shop all shoes at the end of the blog.
A popular choice when making a comeback (what else do we call this?) is choosing a fierce pair of heels. Color, design, texture – everything matters. We saw new season Valentino’s and it’s like they knew what we wanted! The Rockstud Alcove collection in general is so hot. For those of you who just can’t get enough of rockstuds, the new collection really plays to that aesthetic. These patent leather and mesh pumps dotted with rockstuds have our heart. What better way to announce to the world that you’re back and how! We love Amina Muaddi for bringing life to PVC with her Begum slingbacks that are sold out as soon they come on the market. The shoe has become so popular that people often oversee all the other trendy pieces the designer churns out. The Julia sandals in neon green PVC with spiky crystals are one such pair and not your average heels. They command attention and are party favourites. The neon color works so well with our summer palette though you can pair them with monochromes and still make a hot entrance.
