Though stlyistas have a love/hate relationship with white heels, the pristine stilettos are hot for Spring 2012!
Now suitable for engagements outside of church, white pumps and peep toes have been spied on Bomb celebrities like Rihanna, Selita Ebanks, Lala Anthony, Freida Pinto, and more.
Y’all know I’m a fan…!
Some say white shoes are tacky, but if you keep ‘em pristine, and rock ‘em right, they can be super chic!
If you’re willing to give it a go, get a few white hot options here:
What do you think? Will you be trying this trend?

I’ll pass, but I’m sure many of you can make it work!!
June 4, 2012 10:20 am
cute claire!
June 4, 2012 10:21 am
I want to love the white shoe ‘trend’ but I cannot! I cringe when I see them worn, ugh. However I do think maybe my inner fashionista just needs time to grow up?
June 4, 2012 10:41 am
NOPE not her for white and probably never will
June 4, 2012 10:56 am
unless i’m getting married i just can’t see myself wearing white shoes -and even then i would have to opt for Ivory. but kudos to those of you who can do it!
June 4, 2012 10:56 am
Absolutely not. White shoes will always be tacky imo. All of those outfits above could have been worn with a different color shoe
June 4, 2012 10:57 am
I can’t do it…
June 4, 2012 11:00 am
Love it! Close mindedness and fashion don’t mix, but then again we know the Fashion Bomb reader skews Emily B Basic…though I’m sure that if Emily B wore them, the sheep would follow.
June 4, 2012 11:01 am
Ready for that white party!! Yup!
June 4, 2012 11:05 am
I still cant get with white shoes. just screams Minnie Mouse on Easter Sunday
June 4, 2012 11:10 am
I love the Topshop pair and will be rocking them this summer
June 4, 2012 11:18 am
Death to white shoes **raises fist**
June 4, 2012 11:42 am
I’m with the majority – I can’t get on board with white shoes. Freida’s shoes appear to be ivory which is a go for me but white shoes…I can’t. They scream 5 yr. old Easter Sunday. Sorry

I think that white shoes are fine if worked properly. I will never wear them because they will be the color of mud by the end of their first week in my possession.
June 4, 2012 12:10 pm
Thank goodness for NUDE colored shoes, lol.
June 4, 2012 12:11 pm
I cant remember ever wearing white shoes unless theyre sneakers. I like to see them on woman, but for myself, never thought of buying
June 4, 2012 12:16 pm
ugh.
June 4, 2012 12:22 pm
I love !!!
June 4, 2012 12:25 pm
Hated it! white shoes reminds me of church and the usher board. To me they are an outfit killer unless you’re wearing all white.
June 4, 2012 12:34 pm
haha! Not on the sassquash feet…I bought one very naked strappy pair almost a decade ago and think I’ve only worn them in the….ehem…house:-)
June 4, 2012 12:34 pm
No matter how ‘chic’, all I can think of is ‘Pops’ from the Wayans Brothers when I see a pair……lol. I can’t.
June 4, 2012 12:38 pm
Man if your legs aren’t brown you better not put on a white shoe…I’m looking at my “yellow” skinned sister’s here. That mess looks cray! I’m still not feeling them, they just look sooo out of place; and stark. Lord forbid if they aren’t pristine, goodness gray….
June 4, 2012 12:54 pm
Wow, I must be fashion challenged b/c I didn’t know these were unfashionable. Why again?
Anywhoo, I bought a pair of white bow-toe pumps from Kurt Geiger months back. I’m over the moon that I can finally rock them and be seasonally appropriate. And yes, trust I will stunt on all your colored shoes! LOL
June 4, 2012 1:07 pm
im trying to like the trend…the only pics I like above is the one with LALA in the jean dress w/Carmelo and SJP’s colorblocking outfit. I dont think this trend will last too long…
June 4, 2012 2:12 pm
still not buying the white pump trend. and freida doesn’t count… hers are off white
June 4, 2012 2:14 pm
@Uknow BOL!!! I think I love you! LOL!! So, so true!
June 4, 2012 2:27 pm
I love the CL’s! Been eyeing those for months! White pumps are def and hit or miss, you’ve gotta know what you’re doing when buying white shoes. lol
June 4, 2012 3:05 pm
Lol @uknow
June 4, 2012 3:28 pm
For the life of me, I have NEVER been able to get into white pumps. They get dirty quickly and they make your feet look big no matter what size you wear. I feel like God invented nude & silver pumps for a reason… so you wouldn’t have to wear white ones lol.
June 4, 2012 3:33 pm
white shoes ? bad look.
June 4, 2012 5:17 pm
I like! Im tired of seeing nude platforms on every other person.
June 4, 2012 5:29 pm
Love this trend, but I fear my feet are too big : (
June 4, 2012 7:51 pm
I love Sarah Jessica Parker’s look!
June 4, 2012 9:37 pm
Sorry, white shoes remind of Sundays in the temple with my mother and grandmother. They will never be trendy. I own a few pair of white shoes for white parties and when I go to an event that calls for all white.
June 4, 2012 11:34 pm
Unless they are tennis shoes I say death to white shoes, it just looks tacky to me
June 5, 2012 10:45 am
I’ll stick to nude shoes..I HATE white shoes.
June 5, 2012 11:27 am
I wore a pair of white slingbacks when I graduated highschool and that was over 6 years ago.. I cringe everytime I think about those things ughh
June 5, 2012 11:39 pm
White shoes are very touchy, you really have to rock them right. Claire is killin and serving in her photo!
June 5, 2012 11:41 pm
P.S. I loooooooove Selita’s look. She got it down
November 21, 2012 11:02 pm
Bravely I just ordered some, however I feel I’ll need to wear a sign saying “I am actually trendy, white shoes are in!”
