As a shopping writer, this is the shoe I rely on to make every outfit look chic
It's the style of the season
Gone are the days of the platform heel. The chunky style had been appearing on our Instagram feeds for what felt like forever, but there's a new shoe in town and it's taking over the internet. That's right, say hello to the humble slingback.
If you've not yet been introduced, slingback heels might just be your new best friend. The style typically features a pointed or rounded toe, with an ankle strap and a kitten heel, and people just can't get enough. In fact, aside from ankle boots, they are the only shoe that I rely on to make every single outfit look chic.
Thanks to the sophisticated silhouette, they can easily elevate a simple look, and they've quickly become a staple in my wardrobe.
A range of celebrities have been seen sporting the shoe, including Alexa Chung and Dakota Johnson, and I have no doubt that plenty of other stars will follow suit.
Now, you might be wondering, what makes these shoes so great? Aside from the chic silhouette and comfortable heel, what I really love about these heels is that they can be styled with pretty much anything.
No matter whether you want to add a stylish touch to your best jeans and baggy tee, or pair them with a knitted dress for a bottomless brunch with friends, I guarantee that they will be one of your most-worn shoes this season.
From bright colours to more neutral shades, there is a style out there to suit everyone. If you're wanting to get your hands on a pair, you've come to the right place, as I've scoured the internet to find my favourite styles.
I've included both high street and designer options, so no matter what your budget, you can get your hands on the shoe of the moment. Keep on scrolling and take your pick.
