There’s no question heels elevate any look – pun intended. They transform what could be consideredĀ a relaxed, casual outfit into a polished, ready-for-a-night-out ensemble. I’ve always found the best way to wear heels casually is by finding that right pair of pumps you can walk in as if you had sneakers on. Tough I know, but nothing’s worse than seeing a girl struggle in heels – it takes the “casual” right out of the equation if you ask me.
Ā Ā Once you’ve mastered the walk, there’s definitely some tips you can keep in mind when trying to achieve that effortless feel. Keep reading for my three tips on how to wear heels casually.

How to Wear Heels Casually: 3 Essential Tips
WEAR JEANS
Nothing screams “laid-back” more than a pair of jeans. Pop on a pair of your favorite heels and you’ve got yourself the perfect casual outfit. This combo works because jeans help you feel relaxed and comfortable andĀ the right heels (I’m loving these teal ones at the moment) add just a tinge of style.
KEEP IT SIMPLE
If you want to wear heels casually, the clothing should be kept super simple – the more “basic” the better. Let’s say youĀ switched the heels in this look for a pair of slide-on sneakers (you guys know these are my faves)? You’d get an outfit fit for running errands.
Another way to keep it simple is by going monochromatic and letting the heels stand out. It helps the vibe stay super easygoing and informal.
DON’T TAKE THE “CASUAL” TOO FAR
There’s a fine line between wearing a loose hoodie or sweater and just throwing on workout clothes. I would love to see yoga pants work with heels but sadly, it ain’t happening. If you really want to stretch the “casual” in “wearing heels casually” then opt for sleek, opaque leggings/jeggings. The extra inches from the pumps and the form-fitting silhouette of leggings willĀ create the perfect mix of comfort and chic-ness.
Ā If I had to pick my favorite go-to look for night’s out it would definitely be this. I love how simpleĀ yet on-trend you can be without really trying. Heels are magical like that š
