Elegant sling-back pumps are a true staple at the moment; whether you’re heading off to work or to an evening outing, these heeled beauties are your go-to pumps for an elevated look.

Sling-backs remind us a of a much simpler time – think 20th century fashion coupled with the world’s most renowned designers – but as it turns out, with fashion, what goes around truly comes around! Indeed, these little marvels are having a moment in the spotlight once again, as Houses such as Dior, Chanel, Vetements, Hermès and so many more have brought back the glorious days.

The issue here lies in wearing sling-back pumps without looking like you’ve borrowed your great-aunt’s vintage shoes. To avoid such an unforgivable sin, one should pair these pumps with youthful stylish combinations, such as colorful midi-skirts, cropped denims, A-line skirts or even midi dresses. Whether you’d rather go for kitten heels or block heels, the fact is, sling-backs are here to stay.

That said, we’ve rounded up the most trending pair of sling-backs in the Photo Gallery below.
