For all of us fashion-forward girls out there, there’s no time like summer to rock that perfect pair of heels. Whether you’re wondering what to wear on a first date or just out shopping with your gal pals, summer is the season to be out and about with some comfortable heels that are both stylish and easy on your feet. Let’s be honest: no one wants to limp home after a day out, which is why comfort matters as much as style.

Key Takeaways

• Lower, wider heels such as block heels, wedges and kitten heels are generally easier to walk in than stilettos.
• Look for padded footbeds, secure straps and enough room at the toe.
• Nasty Gal, Nordstrom, ASOS, Urban Outfitters and Amazon all carry comfort-friendly heel styles.
• Limit how long you wear heels, and see a foot and ankle specialist if they regularly cause pain.

However, many of us have time and time again faced the dilemma of finding comfortable heels that don’t sacrifice style. Today, we’re sharing our favorite places to shop for cute heels with comfort-friendly features like lower or block heels, padded footbeds and secure straps.

Nasty Gal

What’s in a name? This brand started in the 2000s as an online seller and still sells primarily online. In particular, this is a brand for those saucy gals who aren’t afraid to challenge conventions and make their statement. It’s also a fun place to find cute clothes and accessories.

Block Heel Sandals

On that note, can we say we’re absolutely in love with these heels? Whether you go for the silver or sage green, they are timelessly chic. The block heel offers a more stable base than a stiletto, and the straps help hold your feet in place without restricting your range of motion. And do they make a statement? Oh yes, we’d say they scream, “Comfortable heels rule!”

Nordstrom

Low Heeled Sandal

Nordstrom is a long-standing American department store that carries a wide range of brands, which makes it a good place to compare heel heights, widths and styles in one spot.

These nude low heels are cute, versatile, and summer-appropriate. If you want another option, the “Seychelles Rest Assured Heeled Sandals” pair a low heel with a minimal strappy design, which makes them easier to wear for longer stretches than a tall, skinny heel.

Metallic Heels

It’s no coincidence, then, that these silver heels from Nordstrom look high-end. The best part? While these elegant heels are indeed pointed, it’s an optical illusion created by their ties! They’re roomy in the front, so your toes are less cramped than in a closed pointed pump.

ASOS

A UK brand, ASOS is a household name in the fashion community thanks to its huge selection of in-house and outside brands. 

Pointed-Toe Heeled Sandals

Given its wide selection, this brand presents so many choices when it comes to comfortable heels. Whether you’re looking for something with a block heel, wedge, or stiletto, the number of choices seems to be endless. However, we zeroed in on this pair of heels because of their sense of occasion. They’re also very versatile. But whether you’re wearing jeans, a sundress, or an evening dress, these satin heels will turn heads if they don’t snap necks.

Urban Outfitters

ALOHAS Zyra Onix Leather Mule

But maybe you’re looking for something a bit chicer to it. That’s where these heeled mules come in. By nature, mules are not meant to be dressy, but these would look oh-so-good with a pair of jeans or a sundress. The low, chunky heel is easier to walk in than a stiletto, which earns them a spot on our summer list.

Amazon

What list of online shopping options would be complete without Amazon’s choices? This behemoth of a company seems to have everything under the sun, including lots of choices of comfortable heels! But we’ll point you to three that are both exceptionally stylish AND comfortable.

Platform Sandal

Our first choice is all about the comfort. It comes in various colors and has a thick comfortable heel. But honestly, the thing we love the most is how easily you can dress up any of these colors to look like an absolute queen while you’re out at a any event—enough said.

Pointed Toe Ballerina

Onto our next choice, it also has a dressy pumps heel, and this one is close-toed. So how can it be comfortable? These pumps have a cushioned insole and padded footbed, which can make a closed-toe heel more comfortable to wear.

Pumps Heels

As for our last choice, their style takes things to a whole new level. As their name suggests, these closed pointed-toe slip-on kitten heels have an extra bit of sexy to them with their elegance, and an ultimate classy look that is never out of style. So if you’re looking to blow the socks off your dinner date or generally want to make an impression wherever you go, these are your heels. Best of all, they come in SO many different colors to match your dress choices, a classy choice for sure!
