Carrie Bradshaw's Other Favourite Shoes Are Everywhere for 2019

by Harriet Davey

We're fully convinced we'll have your support in the fact that just because party season is officially over doesn't mean we can't buy new heels, right? Right. Now we've cleared that one up, we think it's time to introduce to you a new (old) shoe style that's doing the rounds on Instagram, being bought in bulk at vintage shops and filtering into designer collections across the globe. You may have spotted it recently, or you may have flashbacks of them from the first time round in the '90s and '00s. Either way, it's all about the simplest slip-on mules Sex in the City's Carrie Bradshaw once approved of. She may have been more commonly spotted in her Manolos, but clicky-clacky mules were never far away.

The Carrie way to wear is by colour co-ordinating top-to-toe.

They have the innate ability to make you look more dressy whilst also giving you all the nostalgic feels of trying on your mum's heels for the very first time. With the backing from names including Stella McCartney, Rupert Sanderson and Miu Miu and the new, more cult brands including Rejina Pyo, By Far and Neous getting on board, it's clear to see these SATC-worthy heels are here to help us put our best (very fashionable) foot forward for 2019. Scroll down to see and shop 15 pairs of editor-approved mules.

These fluffy fancy slipper-type Manolo Blahnik mules have got Carrie written all over them. Courtney adds them to her minimal Jacquemus dress for a high-low look we're taking note of.

Sparkly vest top, satin trousers and slip-on mules… how very '90s. We spy nails in one of this season's key green shades too—round of applause for Stephanie.
