Keeping her cool-girl notoriety firmly intact, Zoë Kravitz stepped out in California yesterday in an elegant yet seemingly effortless outfit that played into her understated aesthetic. Kravitz plucked a sky blue strapless top and black, draped midi skirt to form the foundation for her outfit. Elevating her look for the occasion, the actor added a pair of patent burgundy slingbacks from French fashion house Saint Laurent.
Kravitz’s choice of heels worked to add height and elegance to her look, not to mention a polished sheen. Spotted on so many of the fashion set lately, Saint Laurent’s Blake Slingback Pumps in Patent Leather (£875) have risen to dizzying cult-status heights. In a deep burgundy shade and with a sharp pointed toe, the elegant shoes tap into several major footwear trends whilst retaining a timeless appeal.
Styling well with semi-sheer tights, fashion people have been gravitating towards these heels to enhance their evening outfits, and with a glossy, put-together finish, I’ll keep coming back to patent heels when I need a smart shoe. From Zoë Kravitz’s original designer pair to other styles that have caught our eye, read on to discover the best patent heels to shop right now.
