The Prada Kitten Heel All The 'It Girls' Are Wearing For Fall 2023

Every now and then, a new designer shoe comes along that manages to upstage the clothing ensemble its meant to accessorize. This seems to be the case for Prada's brushed leather kitten heel pumps with floral appliqués. The design is all the rage in the "it girl" circles. The kitten heels feature one of several variations of leather floral appliqués poised on top of the pointed toe box and a slingback strap around the ankle.

The delicate sophisticated pumps are encouraging more people than ever to throw caution to the wind and embrace wearing white after Labor Day — a sentiment we're all for. If you've often wondered what it would be like to rock the that girl aesthetic when it comes to sporting high-end fashion trends, take a peek at the ways the "it girls" are styling their latest Prada pumps and let it serve as inspiration when imagining your own fall 2023 wardrobe pairings. 

One of the universal goals of rocking a miniskirt in fall (or anytime, really) is making your legs appear to be miles long. Pairing your short skirt with pointed-toe pumps can help create this elongated effect by stretching out the silhouette of the foot and pulling the gaze down from the legs in a continuous sweep.

To really make your Prada kitten heels pop, match them up with other accents on your outfit. While a totally monochromatic ensemble will always look elegant, contrasting your clothes with your shoes while matching your shoes to only certain details creates a delicate balance. If you've got white heels, pair them with a white bag and white accents on your outfit.

A pointed-toe pump's ability to elongate the appearance of your legs also comes in handy when paired with a tea-length skirt. Because this length of skirt or dress cuts off the leg above the ankle, it can contribute to a bit of a stubby appearance. Adding a pointed-toe pump and a delicate ruffle or floral appliqué to the skirt can help to both elongate and soften the look. 

Since Prada's brushed leather kitten heel pumps with floral appliqués come in white and black, many of the ensembles created with them seem to stick to an understated color palette. However, there's no rule banning fun when you're wearing a high-end designer piece. White shoes mixed with a dark neutral and a bright primary color is enough to make you stand out as the quirky one in any crowd. 

A maxi dress — especially one that's more formal or embellished — seems like the perfect home for a shoe like the Prada floral kitten pump. Many times, the length of a maxi dress overshadows your shoe choice, but not with these pumps. Their silhouette and gorgeous floral accents will stand out while lending elegance to your overall ensemble at the same time.
