Fall in Love With… Pointed Pumps
The infamous Iris Apfel once said, “If your hair is done properly and you’re wearing good shoes, you can get away with anything.” Let’s just cut to the chase and accept that this lady had a very good point. And speaking of good points, I’ve fallen head-over-heels in love with the pointed toe pump trend. It’s funny though because a few years ago I would have cringed at the thought of wearing pointy heels. I grew up in an era where platform, rounded and peep-toed heels reigned supreme so for me it’s very refreshing to find a new shoe silhouette for the spring.
I personally steer clear of super-pointed toe heels. Instead, I try to find ones that have a more almond shape since I think they are more flattering. Nevertheless, you should definitely try a variety of different points and heel heights to see what works best for you.
What do you think about the pointed toe trend? Are you going to give it a try?

I personally love the pointed toe pump as well as the rounded toe pumps. The rounded heels have been in style the last couple years and I remeber about 8 and 9 years ago the pointed toe pumps were all that was in style. I'm glad to see that they are back. It's a refreshing change but also good that the rounded toe pumps are still in. I have a pair of black rounded toes and I'm absolutely in love with them! -

Yes! I love pointed toe pumps. Those Kate Spade ones you're wearing are adorable. They're ladylike and have the perfect touch of vintage :)

This is great to hear, I own lots of pointed toe heals because I think they look better on my foot and make my small feet more proportionate to my taller body. I can shop my closet and spare my bank account :)

I have a few really pointy heels, and I enjoy wearing those with a boot cut jean because they don't look awkward with a looser fit. -

When I was 18 super pointy heels were so in fashion and I loved them. Now I also cringe at super pointy! 10 years later I prefer a rounder point, like almond toe. Love the shoes Lauren xo

I have a pair of super pointy heels and I have never actually worn them! The almond toe you suggest sounds much better for me :) http://dreamliveandrepeat.blogspot.com/ -

Never thought I would say this, but I actually quite like this trend! I'm excited to try on a pair and maybe style them with some edgy pieces. :)

Love your heels. I've alwaysh had atleast two pairs of pointy toed shoes in my wardrobe at any given time. I usually tend to wear round toed shoes, but there is something very alluring about the point. -
these are so perfect, i think the floral addition to the shoe helps soften the pointed toe. i would definitely wear these!!
