Studded Ankle Strap Slingback (Zara, $90)

Ankle strap shoes are not for everyone.  If you have chunky ankles or thicker calves, skip this style.  But if you have a good balance between the length of your torso and the length of your legs, try them on and see what you think. 

I really adore this pair (and their sub-3″ height), so much so that I put them on praying that they would work.  They looked perfect with my black pencil skirt and my skinny jeans.  Hallelujah.
