6 Spring Outfits with Heels to Wear Right Now

Some trends come from the runways, but the reality of what people actually wear can only be seen out in the world – while going to work, at the supermarket, at the bar, or scrolling through social media. The biggest takeaway I’ve noted for the spring season? The love for trainers is finally waning, replaced by kitten heels, mules and even sky-high stilettos. The trends of 2016 have clearly left their mark and fancy shoes are firmly back on the agenda.

Growing up in Essex, at a time when platforms and six-inch stilettos were appropriate shoes to wear even inside the local pub, this revival is what I’ve been waiting for. Although far more sophisticated versions—the mule, the block-heel ballet pump and the kitten-heel sling-back—are now leading the charge. Polishing is the main objective, with everything from jeans to pencil skirts and silk mini dresses with heels that wouldn’t look out of place at any wedding.
