Blade block pumps, $45.50 by Charles & Keith

2/12

We’re totally digging this dainty embroidery print which gives the shoes a Peranakan vibe. The muted green base colour also means they’re striking enough to be swooned over but sensible enough for the big board meetings. It’s a win-win situation right here.

Covered pumps, $19.90 by Charles & Keith

3/12

These bright bad boys will wow in a crowd for sure. What makes this sleek pair of pumps stand out, besides the metallic silver, is the slightly curved heel. We ladies do so love a curve in the right place.

Fur leather shoes, $69.90 by Mango

4/12

Show off your wild side with this faux fur animal design. They can be worked with a pencil skirt and blouse for a ‘sophisticated but fashionable’ vibe or, with jeans and a tee for your down-time look. Oh, and we must add that the heel is only 5cm high, making walking a breeze.

5/12

Oh this pair, how we do heart them so. This is a super fun pair for business or pleasure, with embroidered flowers complementing the black and white stripes – it’s all about the detail.  Pairing sandals with cute socks is a major trend at the moment, so grab some ankle socks and strut your stuff.

Gucci embellished leather pumps, $1,034 via Net-a-Porter

6/12

Gucci just always has a knack of getting things so right. Besides the iconic ‘GG’ plaque and striped webbing, the vintage-inspired faux pearls on the heel give the smart leather pumps a whimsical twist. You’ll also be happy to know the supple backs can be collapsed for a slip-on look.

Ohhh, would you just look at these for a moment? Sometimes you can just let your shoes do the talking, and this is one pair you’ll be incredibly proud to flaunt. The block heel is an art in itself, with a gradient of neon pink to blue, wrapped in a geometric metal overlay.

Metallic heel loafer, $59.90 by Mango

10/12

Lifting a loafer with a chunky heel? Oh we love it! We’re in love with the metallic cracked finish and fringe detail on this pair. The cool shade of green also gives a dose of character – we can never look at loafers the same way again.

If you think black heels are boring (we’ve so been there, done that), think again. The ombre effect on the clear heel is chic and easy to incorporate with all your work #OOTDs.
