Currently Trending: How to Style your Mules

That's right fashionistas, the Mule is back…

And, it's one of the hottest Summer shoes, trending right now!

The mule is a backless shoe, traditionally with a closed toe. However, fashion is constantly re-inventing itself and there are so many more modern styles available.

Most people are hesitant to wear a mule as they can be intimidating and chunky. Not to mention, the irrational fear of your shoe going flying while walking through a crowded shopping centre, is enough to stop you.

But, if styled correctly, mules can be super chic and elegant. If you are one of those people who are hesitant to try the mule, pick a delicate style with a thin heel and work your way up to the more traditional styles with a closed toe.

My tips for styling your mules are:

1. Style them with skirts. They look best with midi skirts that fall just below the knee. The mule can be quite chunky so pairing them with soft, feminine silhouettes will balance your look.

2. Pair your mules with your trusty denim. Step into your favourite mules along with your favourite pair of jeans for an effortless, chic look. Mules look best with denim, when you can see a bit of your ankle. So, cuff your jeans at the bottom and the mules will get all the attention.

3. My Mule of the Season is 'Fayme' by Tony Bianco. I love the 12cm stiletto heel and the pointed toe. They are elegant and perfect all year round. The double leather strap will ensure maximum impact and maximum comfort.
