You don’t need an occasion like Valentine’s Day to wear red shoes. Any day of the year is an occasion to lovingly sport happy red shoes!

For as long as I can remember, bright red shoes make me smile. There’s just something about them that’s classic, festive and strong. I feel powerful when I wear bright red shoes.

Since red shoes are close to my heart, it seems fitting that I share my current red shoe loves a few days before Valentine’s Day. I didn’t think that I had a thing for red patent, but by the looks of things I definitely do. I’ve seen and tried on all the styles except the Bloch ballet flats and the Me Too Felisa stacked heel pumps. But I believe in the Me Too brand and there has been an encouraging forum discussion about Bloch flats, so I’m suggesting both styles with confidence.

Kitten heels are trending, which makes the Gabriella Rocha Abilene a cute option. Retro T-straps are always in fashion so bring on the Gabriella Rocha Shelby2 if you prefer a daintier heel. The Spring Step Jubilee is extra comfortable and ever so slightly distressed. And the Vaneli Genie’s ruffled toe box has a sweet romantic edge.

Click through the links of these styles for other colours if red is not your cup of tea. I will forgive you.
