The Best Party Shoes From Nordstrom, Shopbop, and Revolve (Yes, Flats Included)

We all know accessories make an outfit, and that can ring especially true for holiday parties. Your favorite black dress can be transformed with the addition of tights, festive jewelry, and great party shoes. While there are many accessories that can evolve an outfit, I'm powerless before a chic pair of shoes, so that's typically my first consideration when planning my looks.
With upcoming holiday parties in mind, I've been browsing my favorite retailers for elevated shoe options that will add a festive touch to any outfit. The current offering is quite elegant, I must say—from velvet slingbacks to satin pumps and burgundy flats—so I figured I'd highlight my favorite options here as we head into party season. While I typically go for heels for holiday parties, I've also included some incredibly chic flats options that have me reconsidering. Below are the 31 best party shoes from Nordstrom, Shopbop, and Revolve.
