Heels That Are Perfect For Non-Heel Wearers

The tides have turned in our favor! Finally, we can wear heels we can actually walk around in! The days of six-inch heels are over. But you “love heels”, you say? Well have no fear, you can still wear them! Smaller heels are back in style and just in time to give us non-heel wearers a break from our sneakers.

Our feet couldn’t be happier. If you’re a beginner or just prefer lower heels, check out our list below for heels that are perfect for non-heel wearers. They are life-changing, we promise. 

Little Black Heels

First, we’re going to need something for every occasion. The Samson slingback mid heels are perfect because 1) they’re black and they go with everything and 2) The slingback makes them fancy while the closed-toe keeps it casual. It’s a perfect shoe for fall, spring, and summer. Dress them down with jeans or dress them up with a suit.

Very Trendy

Snakeskin is having a very big moment right now. It seems like everyone’s got snakeskin. We can’t deny how fun this print is. Get in on the action with the HERA-HI heels from Jeffrey Campbell! The heel is just under three inches. Jeffrey Campbell has a wide variety of low heels on their website so it won’t be hard for you to find something in your style.

Sporty Spice Called, She Wants to Borrow These

If Sporty Spice went to a cocktail party in 2050, she’d wear these. And that’s all we really need to know to be convinced. These low heels are also from Jeffrey Campbell. The HYSTERIA heel is a clear blue with athletic straps and the heel is 2.5 inches tall. Pair these heels with an all-white outfit so that they get the attention they deserve.

It’s Not Technically Cheating

Ok, we’re going to let you guys in on a little secret: platforms. Platforms are the perfect way to look like you’re wearing heels without feeling like you’re wearing heels. The KEEP SMILING BB platform sandals are perfect for running around all day and partying all night.

The platform is three inches and the heel is three and a half inches meaning you’re only wearing a heel that’s half an inch tall. Your feet won’t even notice that they’re off the ground.

These Boots Were Made—

A really good idea for people who are new to wearing heels is to start off with boots. Your foot is closed in so it won’t go anywhere and boots tend to have more support. The “For Walking” cowboy boots are perfect if you want to give yourself some height but still want to play it safe. Pair these with denim cutoff shorts, a fanny pack and an oversized blazer for a look that Lil Nas X would be proud of.

Dressing Up

It’s that time again. People are having parties and there are events to go to where it’s customary that we wear heels. Quite frankly, we don’t want to wear extremely high heels and we feel like we shouldn’t have to.

We understand that certain events have a dress code and for those times, these formal kitten heels will come in handy. They’re perfect for being comfortable but not looking like grandma shoes.

We realise that some of these heels are a bit pricey but if the heels are out of your price range, take this list as inspiration to look for similar items that are cheaper! Let us know in the comments below which pair are your favorite and feel free to share tips on walking in heels!
