High heels give the aesthetic illusion of longer, more slender legs and they are definitely one of those wardrobe staples that will never fall out of fashion.

This season court shoes are as big as ever, coming in a wide variety of colours and fabrics. Try lace or suede courts for a chic shoe alternative to leather.
