Daytime work pumps that can handle the after hours with finesse. The 5.5cm kitten heel reads professional, and also offers you hours of walkability, while the sophisticated black colour and classy pointy-toe design is an easy way to elevate any look. For an ensemble that works both day and night, we recommend styling them with a shirt dress and a trapeze bag.

Heel height (cm): 5.5

An accessible brand with genuine kudos, Charles & Keith has put the creativity back into affordable accessories. Its shoe and bag collections are always on the money, making them a hit with the British style press. Although it’s a global brand, it’s a relative newcomer to the British high street, so our advice is to get it early before everyone catches on.
