In case you didn't know, we're living through a red-shoe renaissance and celebrities are leading the pack. Cropping up on some of my favourite celebs on the daily, red shoes are the new-season accessory that the style set is using to elevate their outfits this spring. Tapping into the enduring red colour trend, I've spotted comfortable kicks, sky-high stilettos and trending ballet flats. Freshly inspired by the cool combinations I'm seeing everywhere, scroll for the celebrity red-shoe outfits convincing me that I could really do with a pair of my own this spring.
