New Look metallic sandal, £20
One of the best things about New Look's credit crunch-friendly heels is that they don't look credit crunch-friendly. These strappy silver metallic sandals would give any high-end heels a run for their money the fab cone-shaped silhouette is on-trend, along with the 70s-style power-platform.

Asos Leather Snake Gladiator sandal, £55
Gladiator heels were an instant style hit as soon as SJP popped a fabulous pair of Dior versions on her usually Blahnik-clad tootsies as the fashion-forward Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City: The Movie. The look filtered down to the high street via pop stars like the Sugababes and Asos now has one of the best copies going. Fierce and full of attitude, these shiny, faux snakeskin shoes will see you through party season with ease not to mention chutzpah.
