I have a confession: I've resisted the kitten heel trend because they remind me of my grandmother. Don't get me wrong, I love my grandma, but these shoes just seemed. . . outdated. However, the kitten heel trend has proven its staying power, and now the silhouette can be considered a certified classic. I finally gave in and bought my first pair of low riders, and let me tell you, I was missing out. Kitten heels are easy to walk in, effortlessly elegant and quickly tie together just about any look.
