Party-ready shoes to make a statement this season
Party shoes are the shoes none of us need but can’t get enough of. I have so many pretty party heels as the crystal heels, mules and metallic shoes just keep getting prettier and prettier. These are the most stunning party shoes I’ve come across this season from designer to luxe for less, in silver, gold and everything from black to bright pinks. Especially while crystal bags and metallics are trending, there’s never been a better time to pick up the shoes of your dreams, so bring on the bling!

If you’re looking for classic black sandals, gold heels or nude sandals, I’ve blogged about those separately. This shoe edit is specifically for you to find all of the prettiest party shoes of the season. Whether it’s for a holiday party, wedding, gala or just because you want something pretty for your feet.
I honestly didn’t need any more party shoes but still ended up with another 2 pairs of pink satin heels since monochromatic looks are in and they were such a good price.

Black party heels
Black party heels are anything but boring this year with their crystal accents and architectural heels. They’re one of the most versatile party shoes and I absolutely adore these black crystal mules. The beauty of a chunkier dress heel is that they don’t get stuck in escalators and I find them way comfier than stilettos. They also work just as well with jeans and cargo pants as they do with cocktail dresses and heels.

These are the most fashion forward mules, platforms and stiletto heels to show up in style this season whatever your budget.
Pretty party shoes in all the colors of the rainbow
Super coordinated, monochromatic party outfits always look so put together. There are so many pretty color heels around this year from baby blue to hot pink to striking reds and rich greens. The biggest problem is deciding which 1 or 10 you actually need VS want because these shoes will make you want them all.
I’ve tended to lean into the pink color trend the most this season and snapped up 2 pairs of pink satin party heels. One stiletto closed toe and one square heel mule. They’re both different enough I feel like it’s justified and they both go with all of the new pink outfits in my closet this season. I was worried I’d have issues keeping the mules on but I find them really comfortable as they have a padded footbed and so far they’ve stayed on!
You’d think that would be enough but then these stunning pink crystal slingback pumps came onto my radar and they’re on sale! Definitely not driving shoes but none of these really are but most definitely stunning statement heels I’d never get sick of staring at.

If you’re more into simple stiletto heels and statement bows, these designer pink bow mules by Off-White would work just as well with Spring and Summer outfits as for party shoes. They also have a padded footbed to make the towering heels a bit more comfortable. Oh and did I mention that they’re on sale!
Shop the colorful party shoes
Mach and Mach and Amina Muaddi have some of the most covetable crystal heels but if you’re looking for something a little more credit card friendly I’ve found some more affordable styles too. I’ve also added Carrie Bradshaws iconic blue satin Manolo Blahniks and a pair of pink Alexander McQueen heels that are on sale.
Classic gold and silver party heels
Gold and silver party heels will always be in style and tend to go with everything. If you wear both gold and silver jewelry or handbag hardware, I recommend having both a pair of silver and gold party heels so you can swap them out depending on what you’re wearing.

Silver Party Heels
The prettiest silver party heels for under $150. These elegant heels add a little glamour and sparkle to any outfit from jeans to cocktail dresses and gowns.
If you feel like you’ll only wear them during the holiday season, go for a classic style you can wear year after year. I tend to wear mine with my gowns too for when black or nude doesn’t work or I want something more glam.
Gold & Crystal Accent Heels
These are one of the newer style to just land at Revolve. Tony Bianco has some of the best party shoe collections in all colors and styles but they’re always sparkly and fashion forward.

From closed toe crystal pumps to towering metallic silver and gold platform party heels, there’s a shoe for everyone to fall in love with.
