Beautiful Designer Mules With Bow Embellishments

Not only are beautiful designer mules right on trend, bow embellishments are having a moment too. Combine the two and you have the perfect summer heels for every one of your plans. For example, who could possibly resist the Maldives bow mules by Dee Ocleppo? These adorable pink heels will add a romantic touch to any dress you pair them with. That said, if you’re looking for inspiration or need something new for an event, I highly recommend wearing yours with a designer midi and a cute top-handle bag. I’ll be styling mine with the Blythe dress by ASTR The Label and the knot padded Intrecciato leather clutch by Bottega Veneta.

Meanwhile, if and when you need something a little more understated, look to sleek metallic mules. Preferably, the double bow crystal-embellished mirrored leather mules by Mach & Mach. Firstly, these stunning silver heels will go with countless dresses you already own. Secondly, you can style them up or down with everything from floral summer dresses to LBDs for evenings out. Hint, the Kayra strapless dress by Skin and micro bow embellished metallic leather tote by Self Portrait will work perfectly with these heels.
