Influencers Keep Wearing These High-Street Shoes

last updated 12 June 2019

I can always make room in my wardrobe for a new pair of shoes. In all honesty, barely a month goes by when I don't treat myself to a new pair. A high-street pair, that is. Of course, I ogle over designer footwear just as much as the next fashion obsessive, but seeing as I can afford myself several high-street pairs for the price I'd pay for a single set of Manolo Blahniks or Jimmy Choos, the maths speaks for itself.

It also helps that right now, high-street shoes are the best they've ever been, and it seems I'm not the only one who thinks so. So many influencers have been wearing high-street shoes of late (below you'll find my absolute favourites). From Erika Boldrin's Mango wrap-around sandals to Ada Oguntodu's excellent Topshop mules, keep scrolling to see and shop the high-street shoes influencers have bought into this summer.

The cutout detailing makes these black leather shoes ideal for summer, too, as they're more breathable than traditional heels.
