I Wasn’t a Fan of Ballet Flats Until French Women Introduced Me to This Elevated Version
Ever on the hunt for fresh shoe trends that offer a polished silhouette and a comfortable stride, the season's newest offering has been on my mind since the moment I laid eyes on it. A new staple in my daily shoe rotation, heeled ballet pumps have just become a wardrobe non-negotiable for me. Offering all the comfort of a classic ballet flat with the added sophistication of a small heel, heeled ballet pumps are the sleekest shoe trend entering circulation.
Already a favourite of the French fashion set, heeled ballet pumps are loved throughout the spring and summer for their light coverage and cushioned support. With more structure than a typical ballet flat, this heeled iteration looks a little more grown-up and pairs well with full-length trousers or dresses, raising their hemlines a few inches to stop them sweeping the floor. Whilst the trend is fairly fresh on the scene, plenty of our favourite high-street and designer brands have already mastered their versions. From French-girl favourite Rouje's butter yellow style to Other Stories' supple leather pair, designers are backing this blossoming shoe trend for spring 2024.
Read on to discover our edit of the best heeled ballet pumps to buy now.
SHOP HEELED BALLET PUMPS:
The bow details adds a playful edge.
These polished almost-flats style well with sweeping maxi dresses and straight-leg jeans alike.
I love this pastel yellow hue for spring, but these also come in brown suede.
In elegant satin for more polished occasions.
Red shoes are the easiest way to add a pop of colour to your outfit.
With their square toe and slightly higher heel, these look more expensive than they are.
So French. I can see these with slightly cropped, straight-leg jeans and a cotton blouse.
