If you’re looking to refresh your footwear rotation with a new-season buy, might I make a suggestion? While peep-toes are trending and rich chocolate-brown styles have been doing the rounds, my allegiance lies firmly with a classic shoe style that both Catherine, Princess of Wales and Gwyneth Paltrow have given their nod of approval to just this week.
Steering well clear of any flash-in-the-pan trends, the pair stepped out in black pointed-toe heels, completing what might be two of the chicest outfits I’ve seen this season.

In London, Kate styled her slate-grey suit with characteristic poise. Her black pointed-toe pumps balanced the long, leg-skimming trousers and reinforced the sleek, tailored energy of the ensemble. The heels added refinement without competing with the sharp lines of her suit.
Meanwhile in L.A., Gwyneth stepped out in the very same shoe trend to a screening last night. Forgoing tailoring, she opted for a minimalist black dress with slit detailing and a delicate halterneck neckline. Cinched with a slim black leather belt and elevated with pointed-toe heels, her look felt easy and elegant.
