What A Girl Wants...

I have been thinking a lot recently about keeping a really great versatile pair of heels in my car (or office) - so that where ever I go, I can get dressed up in a jiffy if need be. You know those times, when you unexpectedly end up going to an event where you want to look extra cute - but your comfy flats just aren't cutting it.


So this go-to pair would have to be really wearable, with possibilities to match almost any outfit and provide elegance for a fairly formal function or an extra pop on a blah errand-running ensemble.

I still haven't really found a perfect pair - but I am considering a few different criteria. These shoes must be a neutral color to go with anything. It seems to me that a nude, metallic, grey, or bold color (like bright green or yellow!) would be the best choices. I feel like a classic shape would be best - maybe a nice peep-toe pump? Although this could limit things if you were in dire need of a pedi... hmm... I guess I'll just have to make sure I keep my tootsies in good shape ;) The shoes would also have to be made of a fairly wearable material - no satin or suede in case there is inclimate weather. The heel would have to not be too TOO high, in case a bit a walking was involved.

So I have hunted down the best styles and this is what I've come up with:



Boutique 9 Unika, $149.99, heels.com

Paris Hilton (I KNOW!) Catalina, $78.88, heels.com


L.A.M.B. Daran, $334.99, heels.com


Marciano Lila, $194.99, heels.com


Boutique 9 Narcissa 4, $135.00, piperlime


Oh Deer Blair, $139.99, heels.com


Dolce Vita Madison, $150.00, shopbop


Forever 21 Jelena, $19.80, forever21.com


L.A.M.B. Kochi (it's a gorgeous purple - hard to tell in the picture), $319.99, heels.com


Which ones are your favorites? Do you have any other suggestions?

I have a slight obsession with gold things lately so I really liked the first pair of gold ones. But I also loved the Dolce Vita cream ones. I love the shape. But I would be tempted to have something dark like the LAMB ones that would work for fall and winter. Although, I would not claim to be any sort of authority on this!

P.S. I know this will sound crazy, but Crocs has a new line of shoes that are supposed to be comfortable AND fashionable. It's called YOU by Crocs. They have heels and wedges with patent leather. Just thought you might like to know, in case you hadn't heard.

Thanks - I must admit those Crocs are *alright* I will never actually like them on principle alone.

I really like those Paris Hilton Catalina shoes. The Dolce Vita Madison pair are gorgeous. And the Forever 21 Jelena slingbacks are fabulous.

I think the Dolce would suit you best in a pinch if you had to choose from all, though I really like those Hilton's.

Surprisingly (like you!) I really like the Paris Hilton shoes. Nice classic style, with a little cute thrown in, plus the deep gray is beautiful and would work well with black as well as many other colors.

The L.A.M.B Daran Heel is so cute in person. It also comes in black which I prefer over the lighter color. Happy Heel Hunting!

All great choices and what an excellent idea. You are ready for anything. I do have another suggestion to add. A pair of silver platform shoes or metallic platform shoes both are ankle strap high heels and both have a tiny peep toe. They are gorgeous, a neutral like you asked for and both are absolutely gorgeous.

And, they are only $39.99 and that is with free shipping! You can find both pairs of fabulous high heels at:

You've got some amazing picks here, so kudos. I would also suggest the Fawson, from Aldo. Here's the link: http://www.aldoshoes.com/us/women/pumps/almond-toe/76338948-fawson/12

The color is gorgeous and the cut is ridiculously flattering. Plus, they won't cut your feet to shreds.
