Mid Heel Shoe Edit
If you're familiar with my fashion background, you know my shoe collection could put Imelda Marcos to shame. I've amassed a dazzling array of stilettos over the years, thanks in part to my time in the high-end footwear industry and my lucky sample shoe size 37. While I still adore these towering beauties, I now reserve them for special occasions (i.e. occasions that involve zero walking and maximum sitting) - after all, hobbling from the car to the bar is only fun if you're not in agony for the rest of the week.
As I've grown older, I've noticed a curious relationship between my age and my ability to tolerate sky-high shoes - or lack thereof. Gone are the days of sporting 100mm heels like they're NBD, and hello to a more sensible 70mm height worn sparingly throughout the month. But let's be real, there are certain outfits that simply demand a touch of elevation, and I refuse to sacrifice style for comfort completely. Thankfully, I've discovered that it's possible to slay a look without inflicting lasting damage on my feet.

It seems that designers far and wide are hopping on the lower heel bandwagon, and for good reason. Not only do these modest heels provide unparalleled comfort, but they also give you the freedom to strut your stuff at lightning speeds (goodbye, snail's pace!) and are quickly becoming the epitome of style and sophistication.
Whether you're looking for something cute and casual or elegant and refined, there's a mid-heel option out there that's just right for you. And as someone who's always on the hunt for stylish and comfortable footwear, I've compiled a list of my personal favorites to help you navigate the mid-heel landscape.

Summer footwear should be versatile and comfy, and that's why nude or metallic sandals are a must-have in every fashion-savvy person's shoe collection.

There's just something about the sleek silhouette of a pointed toe that really gives you that elongated effect. These stylish stunners offer all the lengthening benefits you crave without compromising on comfort.
Don't let anyone tell you that black pumps are basic - with the right shape and style, they can easily elevate your outfit. Rather than settling for a snooze-worthy silhouette, opt for a shoe that's as fierce as you are. And if you're looking to add a touch of modern flair to your mid-heel pumps, a pointed toe is the way to go. Trust me, it's the perfect way to inject some fresh energy into your wardrobe without sacrificing an ounce of sophistication.
When it comes to shoe trends, block heels are staging a comeback that's hard to ignore. And it's no wonder - not only do they add a touch of modern edge to any outfit, but they're also comfortable. Plus, they pair perfectly with this season's best cropped pants, wide leg jeans and long skirts, making them a versatile and stylish addition to any wardrobe.
