Jeweled mules (isn’t that fun to say?) that are so glam up top but have flexible, grippy soles on the bottom. Fashion *and* function? We love to see it.
Katy Herman/BuzzFeed, amazon.com
Reviewers recommend sizing up! I recently treated myself to these and forgot to do so, but they still fit well (my heel is just a teeeeeny bit over the edge in the back, but I don’t mind because they stay on my foot more easily). I’m honestly obsessed — I can’t believe how affordable they were, especially considering how high fashion they look. They just make me smile!!! The grippy soles give a nice cushion and are for some reason printed with fruit designs? Can’t explain it but only adds to the happy feet feels these give me. Oh, and they’re compliment magnets on Insta, too.
Promising review: “Better than the photo! I actually love the look of this shoe even more than I thought I would! It goes with so many things and looks more expensive than it is. I took off one star because it is slightly harder to keep on my foot than most of my slides. Not a ton of padding, so not much for my foot to grip. But it’s only a small issue and I got used to it. If you are used to wearing slides this should not be an issue. Super cute shoe overall!” —carrie
Get them from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in sizes 5.5-10.5 and in three colors and prints).

Platform oxfords that look way more expensive than they are. They’re here to prove once and for all that it’s not about the price tag, as long as you’ve got ~sole~.
Amazon, amazon.com
Promising review: “I love these shoes!!! I don’t typically write long reviews, but I really love that I bought these. I bought them a week before a trip to Iceland and France with no time to break them in. They were great! It was rainy in Iceland and I wore these everywhere — they still look great and the platform kept me elevated enough that I never worried about puddles or anything getting my feet wet. I wore those on all the little sightseeing stops waking through dirt and lava fields. Comfy like a sneaker, but better looking. They elevated casual outfits — like navy capris and a white tee — to be a little more sophisticated-looking, which came out great in photos. I can wear these with no-show socks and without socks. With no-show socks they are roomy enough that I had no rub. I also had a stranger or two compliment me on my cool shoes. Overall, super awesome and a great value.” —Justina Pfister
Get them from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in sizes 5-10 and in five colors).

Versatile lace-up wedge booties that over 2,000 reviewers swear by for both comfort *and* style. These babies would be such a cute transitional weather pick with a spring dress.
Promising review: “How are these so comfortable?! I have herniated discs in my lower back that have made it impossible to wear high heels without significant back pain for several days. I took a risk and decided to try out wedges because I really miss my heels. Y’all, I have boots I wear daily that are less comfortable than these are. I don’t understand it, it makes no sense, but I don’t hurt wearing these, nor the day after. My sneakers are the only shoes I own that are at all more comfortable than these.” —J.C. Barraza

Stacked heel, tie-detail booties you should knot hesitate to make your go-to pair (or buy in every color).
Amazon
Promising review: “These are really the best looking booties I have found. I wanted something a little dressier but still casual, and the heel is the perfect size. I would say they’re pretty true to size. I was concerned because I have very wide feet, but the 8 fit just right. They’re a little more faux suede than expected but they’re one of my favorite booties. Will buy another in another color!” —Houston TX

Promising reviews: “Like walking on a cloud!! I hate walking around the house barefoot so these are great. They have a nice thick bottom for going outside. The part that goes over your foot has a tight to snug fit, which I love because that means your feet won’t slide through. I usually avoid shoes like this for that purpose alone. Plus the bow is a cute touch. I’m very happy with this purchase.” —Gina

Promising review: “THE MOST COMFORTABLE SHOE FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS/TEACHERS. As a student teacher, I’m constantly on my feet and moving from my own college campus to preschools and chasing after those 4-year-olds. I’ve had these for almost a month now and 1) they’ve only gotten more comfortable with each wear and 2) I haven’t complained once about these shoes. The straps don’t bother me and the part wrapping around my ankle doesn’t irritate me at all. I will definitely be getting these in LOTS of colors :)” —Miss Katy

They’ve got over 1,000 positive reviews, and reviewers recommend going with your usual size!
Promising review: “I’ve been wearing these booties now for three months on an almost daily basis. They’re holding up extremely well. I have so-called comfort shoes in my closet that I can’t wear because they cause blisters. But these booties are fantastically comfortable! They slip on and off quite easily, even with socks, and I can wear them all day and night and my feet don’t hurt at the end of the day. I thought they were cheap shoes because of the price, but they have proven to be an excellent purchase. I’m going to order another pair. The pair I have still looks like new. I have somewhat wide feet and ankles that frequently swell, and the regular size fits me perfectly, where in other shoes I might feel a bit squeezed.” —Helen Smith

The heels have a sole type on the bottom that offers some cushion when you walk and doesn’t make as loud of a noise. Plus they’re a perfect fit. I ordered the size shoe that I usually wear and they fit perfectly with a normal pair of socks. If you plan on wearing them a lot with thicker socks, I would get a size up.

Promising review: “I purchased these shoes for a wedding I was standing in. They looked FABULOUS with my bridesmaid dress. I wore them all night! They did not rub or anything. I chose to wear no-show socks with them because of the unexpected cold weather, but they also look great without socks. They are surprisingly sturdy for being made mostly of lace. The bottom of the shoe is reinforced, and the sellers even sent another insert in the box (I guess for when the first lining wears out).” —Kelly M.
