Okay, February is definitely boot weather, but I'm already dreaming of spring and, of course, mules! I love how versatile they are— you can find everything from a comfortable flat loafer mules to ultra stylish embellished stilettos. Since there are so many choices, it's a good idea to start looking now. Just a quick note for the shoe aficionados: I'm sticking to the classic definition of a mule, meaning it has a closed toe. Open-toed versions are usually called slides. Slides will be covered in another post.
Jeffrey Campbell consistently delivers interesting designs, unique heel shapes, and diverse fabrications—and in abundance! The Vader, style with its high vamp and sculpted 3.5-inch heel, is a perfect example. Available in an array of eye-catching brights, including chartreuse, pink, orange, red, and the turquoise suede shade shown here, these mules are a stylish way to step into spring. Price: $155
ALAÏA's Cube Wedge Mule is the kind of shoe that can do it all. The wedge sole offers all-day comfort, while the pointy toe adds a touch of elegance. This versatile style is shown here in a sophisticated satin dune shade, but you can also find it in black and a rich dark brown. With a heel height of 75mm (approximately 2.9 inches), it's the perfect balance of height and comfort. Price: $1,200
VINCE, a go-to brand for minimalist clothing and shoes, offers a chic update to the classic loafer with the Samy Leather Kitten Mule Pumps. Featuring a pointy toe, a walkable 1.75-inch heel, and leather soles, the hardest part is choosing between the rich ganache brown and the always-reliable black. Price: $295
Square toe mules are a stylish and modern choice too. Consider this Prada minimalistic patent leather mule. Though the heel is about 3.3 inches, because of its design, it should be comfortable for daily wear. Plus, the glossy patent leather adds a touch of polish that works beautifully with everything from casual to dressy looks. You will be wearing this shoe for a long time! Price: $ 1,200
While Jimmy Choo is often synonymous with towering stilettos, the brand also excels at creating elegant lower heels, like the Staz Mule. With a comfortable 50mm (nearly 2 inch) heel, this mule features a beautifully sculpted heel shape, a delicate bow detail, an elegant pointy toe, and a truly eye-catching metallic silver shade. These aren't just for dressy events; imagine how great they'd look with your everyday wardrobe! Price: $1,125
Do you wear mules, and if so when and what are your favorite styles? I'd love to hear your recommendations!
