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.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgH8y-xJagIQU4CDzSxZ_qnOKzWakxwlPnHBuYuof4A-gvCq9iYmsBBE14tx2DiXSLNm5pW6dPwh0SQCV56VjEMEpYlJkJfvkuYsyzFmYLb3lpYXCtWtYcDtKHuUziSkTAx23ln/s400/%5Bheels_sartorialist.jpg%5D.jpg)
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:
