Nothing beats a good pair of black court shoes, but these ones from River Island have a little bit of an edge on some other styles I've seen recently. The trend for pointed toes has been gathering force, and these combine a pointy toe with a high gloss upper and stiletto heel. They're a sexy pair of shoes, but the colour means that you'll still be able to get away with wearing them to work, to give a little bit of "oomph" to your suit or dress. They're £53.82 and available from River Island.
