Closet Essentials Series: Heels for Women

4 pairs of the most versatile heels for women

There are a few essentials heels for woman you should have in your closet. These are my most versatile and most worn heels.

Heels for women is the last in my closet essentials series

During 2019, I’ve done a monthly series about essentials you should have in your closet. If you’ve missed them, check them all out RIGHT HERE! We’ve talked about jeans, t-shirts, sneakers, jackets, flats and so many more. Today we’re talking about heels for women!

Heels are absolutely an essential in my closet. I actually own a lot of heels, but there are only a few that are my most versatile and get worn often.

These are my 4 most worn styles of heels for women: 

1. Black patent leather pumps

I have a pair of MANOLO BLAHNIKS, which my husband spoiled me with a few years ago. They’re crazy comfortable for a tall heel, and the most gorgeous shape. But there are lots of other good options that are more affordable.

Also, I’d recommend patent leather over standard leather — they look more chic and timeless. Regular leather can look a little more matronly.

Here are some other options: 

2. Nude patent leather pumps

Every girl needs a pair of nude pumps. I have a pair from JIMMY CHOO, which I love (and my husband actually spoiled me with too), but they’re a little bit too light of a nude color for me, so I plan to replace them at some point.

Again, I think patent leather looks a little more chic, but that’s personal preference.

Here are some other options: 

3. Leopard pumps

A pair of LEOPARD PUMPS is an essential in my closet. It’s a great patterned shoe that can totally be a neutral. I wear my leopard pumps with everything! I’ll show you some ideas in tomorrow’s blog post.

Mine are old and no longer available, but THESE LEOPARD PUMPS are similar.

I recommend a slightly larger leopard print, like these ones.

Here are some other options: 

4. Ankle Strap Heeled Sandals

I own a NUDE PAIR, but a black pair is on my wishlist. These are great for summer with jeans when you’re trying to dress up a casual outfit, or amazing with skirts and dresses.

The most classic style is a narrow stiletto, but also a block heel is really cute and trendy right now.

Here are some good options:

Tomorrow I’ll show you a bunch of outfit ideas with each of these styles of heels!
