Faux Suede Kitten Heel Slingback Pointed Court Shoes - plum

Pointed toe court silhouette with a slingback strap that keeps the shoe secure without closing off the heel - the open back gives a lighter, more open feel than a traditional court. Faux suede upper with a soft, matte finish that sits cleanly against the foot with no shine or stiffness. Kitten heel sits between 2.5 and 4.5cm - tall enough to lengthen the leg, low enough to wear from early evening through to last orders. The vamp cuts low across the front of the foot, creating a longer visual line through the toe that works particularly well with bare legs or sheer hosiery. Slim, tapered heel is neatly proportioned to the pointed toe - the two ends balance each other so the shoe reads sharp rather than fussy. The kitten heel slingback occupies a very specific and useful place in a going-out wardrobe - it has the pointed-toe polish of a proper court shoe but none of the end-of-night regret. The low heel means you can actually move in them, and the slingback strap keeps things feeling deliberate rather than casual. The faux suede finish adds a softness that stops the pointed toe from reading too severe, making these versatile enough to go from a work drinks situation straight into a proper night out. Wear them with a sleek midi skirt and tucked-in blouse for early evening, then let the look loosen up as the night goes on. They also work well finishing off wide-leg tailored trousers when you want a heel that doesn't compete with the trouser silhouette. A bar, a birthday dinner, or a night out where you actually want to stay comfortable - these cover all of it.
