Silver trousers and metallic ballet flats enjoyed a popular summer and early autumn, but now, as event season takes the helm, gold footwear is on track to be the star of the season. With the ability to whip a jeans-and-jumper pairing into a party-ready look in an instant, there's no item my dressing-up wardrobe values more than gold heels in the winter.

Whilst you might worry about colour pairings, I actually find a pair of gold heels in a light tone to be one of the most versatile items in my wardrobe, bringing an all-black outfit to life and illuminating a colourful ensemble with just as much ease.
