Heels Hit All-Time Low-- The Rise of The Kitten Heel



Louis Vuitton

 


Valentino

 Attention to all those who adhere to anything fashion: The kitten heel has risen and it is the dawn of a pain-free era!  The walk of pain is no more.  Dr. Scholl's For Her High Heel Insoles are no longer our staple.  Our savior has arrived, and it is in the form of low-heeled shoes.

  Kitten Heels took the Autumn/Winter 2010-11 runways by storm, and it doesn't look like this trend is going to tread away any time soon.  Valentino models graced the runway with a line of heels gorgeous enough to make any fashionista weep.  The studded straps add just the right amount of edginess to make them perfect for that slinky dress you've been saving for New Years Eve.  Who says low heels have to be conservative?  Not Valentino, that's for sure.

   Louis Vuitton made an impact as well, with a line of chic shoes for those who desire a more classic look.  The sleek lines of the bow are enough to give that subtle "POW" factor, while at the same time, keeping within confines of an overall smooth silouette.  They have a timeless look that is reminiscent of Jackie'O, and looking at them gives me the urge to fasten a string of pearls around my neck. I know what the rest of you are thinking: "Hmmm..low heels.  Are they for me?"

   Whether you're cutting edge or ultra-conservative, fear not!  There is a pair of kitten heels resting on a store shelf somewhere, waiting for you to give them a good home.  So, what are you waiting for--GO!  I promise your stilettos will still love you in the morning.
