One of my biggest pet peeves when it comes to shopping is buying something for a specific occasion and then never wearing it again. To avoid this, I’ve tried to shop smarter by investing in pieces, especially shoes, that go with many different things. I’ve even made a laundry list of shoe styles that go with everything and today I want to talk about one of them in particular: gold heels. You might be surprised to think that metallic shoes are versatile since understated neutrals like white, black, and nude are typically what come to mind when we think of versatile shoes. But based on my research, gold heels are the shoe trend that’s shockingly versatile.
To prove it, I’ve pulled together a handful of outfits with gold heels to both inspire you and show just how many different outfits and color schemes the shoe pairs well with. If you’re on the wedding circuit, gold heels are the surprising accessory that will come in handy for wearing with many different wedding-guest dresses no matter their style, color, or occasion.
Ahead, glean some styling inspiration from the fashion crowd, and further down, shop our favorite gold heels at every budget.
