Meow! Kitten Heels

Looking through magazines, shoe stores and online it doesn't seem like there is anything in between sky high heels and platforms and sweet ballet flats. But, there is the kitten heel; a low, slim heel that works on everyone.

The kitten heel is a great choice for people that cannot wear high heels, tall women that don't want to add too much height (my tall friend call them "tall bitch shoes"), or those that just want something different. Kitten heels are great for city dwellers that do a lot of walking, or vacationers that know their destination will require traipsing through cities. Plus, they are perfect for work when high heels could look too sexy.

Audrey Hepburn was a fan of this style of shoe, therefore making it an instant classic. But, kitten heels don't have to be boring or dowdy. Go for a classic pair, or look for fun colors, details and embellishments.

Kitten heel styles range from sandals, to peep toe, to pumps. Get several pairs and wear them with shorts, skirts, pants and dresses. These shoes are so versatile, and comfortable to boot.
