Block heels hit the fashion radar a few years back, and boy were we happy about that. We spent years painstakingly trying to refine the art of walking in spindly heels and then along came block heels and saved us from ourselves.
Chic and comfortable they’ve fast become the wear everywhere heels, they won’t look too dressed up for your trips to Tesco (and if you are wearing spindly heels to Tesco all power to you). Your feet won’t be on fire in minutes when having to stand up at a wedding all day, and you won’t sink in the grass at the park. These are a wardrobe fail-safe.
