I Saw These 29 Kitten Heels While Scrolling and Immediately Added Them to Cart

Our society has quickly pivoted from heels to flats. While the years circling 2016 revolved around sky-high Louboutin heels, 2024 has been all about comfort first. It may be the years we spent at home or a shift toward a more practical lifestyle, but it's been hard for me to give up on all the amazing high heels I own. So I slip into kitten heels over and over again because I feel like they're the perfect in-between.
Besides their practicality, I love kitten heels because of how flattering they are. The slight lift that they give your legs will make them look way longer than they are. I've counted on them time and again to give me that "Barbie" moment. Below, find the 29 styles that currently have my heart.
These shoes are the perfect conversation starter.
