Trend Alert: The Return of the Kitten Heel! Meow...

Hey Babes!

The kitten heel has struck again! Kitten heels, which stand 1.5-2 inches tall, made their debut in the '50s and were originally designed for girls who weren't quite ready for taller heels. They gained popularity in the '60s when Audrey Hepburn rocked a chic black pair in Breakfast At Tiffany's. By the late '90s they were various styles made available when Manolo Blahnik designed kitten heels in a number of looks.  Kitten heels are a favorite of many fashionable women who have classic style, including Michelle Obama and the late Jackie-O.



The stiletto "mini-me" has a number of positive notes.  For one, they are more comfortable to wear. Secondly, they give a classic look to any outfit. Last, they offer a refreshing change to high heels. Best worn with knee length dresses and full skirts because these shoes compliment the outfits silhouette.

Although I love my high heels., I am also a fan of the kitten heel! I can't wait to get a new pair!

So, Babes, what do you think? Yay or Nay?
Love Yall!
