Next Bejewelled Ballerina Pumps

Despite my best efforts, I still know plenty of women who'd rather stay at home than be forced to go out in killer heels just because the rest of their outfit is formal. So for those of you who can't (or won't) wear heels, here are a couple of great formal shoes with flat soles. In blue or black satin, Next's £24.99 jewelled ballerina pumps would look very pretty poking out from below a floor-length gown, or teamed with one of the season's brocade shift dresses and opaque tights.
