As an NYC resident, I’m constantly passing by stylish neighbors in various boroughs. Whether I’m frolicking in Fort Greene and Bedstuy or heading downtown to the Lower East Side, I’ve taken note of recurring trends in each neighborhood—particularly, heel trends. The shoes you wear say so much about you, and as I pass by fashionable girls on my daily strolls, their heels tell me they are fabulous. The heel trends they’re wearing aren’t necessarily new, but they are eye-catching. From classic pointed-toe pumps to simple slingback kitten heels, these NYCers know how to make a statement.
Each outfit they wear has an element of chicness that I attribute to one of these heel trends. Think of simple jeans elevated by a pair of pumps, or a lace-trim skirt paired with peep-toe heels, for a casual yet chic vibe. These are the outfit types I’ve been seeing, so keep scrolling to shop each trend and enhance your daily looks.
Classic Pointed-Toe Pumps
The classic pointed-toe pump will never go out of style. They are just the best shoe trend to make an outfit look much more polished and put together. Whether you’re wearing a pair of jeans or a simple skirt, a pointed-toe pump is always dependable for elevating your outfits. I’m not one to wear this trend often, but whenever I see someone stomping through the streets of NYC with confidence in a pair of pointed-toe pumps, I can’t help but want to wear a pair too.
