The 24 Best Lace-up Heels I’d Skip All Other Trends For

Right now, it feels like shoe trends are coming and going by truckload and it can feel dizzying to keep up. As someone who tends to be very picky with my shoes, it takes a cool yet relatively timeless style for me to invest in, and right now, lace-up heels tick those boxes. I call them a “trend” because I’ve noticed the style has been bubbling up more than ever lately, but truth be told, they’re on the more classic end of the spectrum, which means they don’t will not go out of fashion anytime soon (if already).

Thanks to designer iterations from Amina Muaddi, The Attico and Bottega Veneta, lace-up heels are officially a staple among the fashion crowds. Celebrity stylist Dani Michelle insists this is a key trend to try for summer 2022. “They really make your shoes an accessory,” she noted. Add an ankle wrap to any style, from heeled flip flops to pointy toe pumps, and they instantly become the prettiest shoes.
