Not Flats and Not Heels—This Mid-Style Shoe Trend Pairs Beautifully with LBDs

      At 5'10", I'm not particularly fond of heels. My aversion to elevated shoes isn't an issue in my daily life, but it complicates things when dressing up for more formal events. It’s often difficult to find flats or sandals that exude the same elegance as heels. While designers attempt to elevate flats with decorations like crystals and sequins, I find it challenging to replicate the sophistication of heels. So, what’s a girl to do when she prefers not to wear heels but can’t find stylish flats? The solution: kitten heels, of course. Elle Fanning recently showcased the perfect way to style kitten heels with an elegant dress. She was spotted at the trendy Santa Monica restaurant Giorgio Baldi—known to many as Rihanna's favorite spot—looking chic in this shoe trend. Her Hermès kitten heels were the perfect match for her lovely lace midi dress. Scroll down to view her outfit and shop for similar shoes for your next evening event.
