HOW TO STYLE WHITE PATENT LEATHER CLASSIC HEELS
HOW TO STYLE?
White Patent Leather Classic Heels
You don't often see many ladies wearing white patent leather pumps, and this is mainly due to the fear of working them into an outfit successfully. When styled correctly these shoes can look fantastic, creating a whole new arrange of possible outfits. This article will help ease your nerves and hopefully by the end give you the encouragement to purchase a pair of these fantastic underused high heel shoes. I have taken inspiration from celebrities which have made these pumps look amazing, and also providing my favourite styles and choices on how to put together a great outfit.
Celebrity Outfits
Camila Alves
The Brazilian-American model and designer wore a pair of beautiful white patent leather pumps to the Lilly Pulitzer For Target Launch Event at Bryant Park Grill on April 15, 2015 in New York City.
Camila wore a colourful floral print dress with matching clutch bag, and a white blazer.
Why it works?
The outfit works great as clearly the dress is the focal point of the outfit. If Camila wore brightly coloured shoes it would have resulted in too much colour. The white blazer helps to reduce the overload of colour and compliments the pumps.

Jennifer Lopez
The American singer, actress, dancer, fashion designer, author, and producer wore the white patent version of Tom Ford's padlock heels to the Viva Movil by Jennifer Lopez flagship store opening in Brooklyn in New York City on July 26, 2013.
Why it works?
The classic off-white sleeved dress has a feminine appeal and the style of the shoes also gives this impression. The gold detailing in the forms of the padlock and the tips of the heel o the shoes, match the blonde layers in Jennifer's hair.

Kim Kardashian
The American reality television personality, socialite, actress, businesswoman and model also wore the Tom Ford padlock pumps in white patent leather whilst exiting the Webster Hotel in Miami, Florida, on October 2, 2012.
Why it works?
If you live in the USA on the west coast, then this outfit works. The outfit provides a mix of street style (in the form of the denim shirt) and beech style (in the form of the ocean blue pencil skirt). The style of shoe is perfect because it has the ankle strap of a sandal suited for the beach look, with the classic pointed toe for the city look. This look isn't for everyone, but if you have that diva edge, it works great.

Stacy Keibler
The American actress, model, dancer, cheerleader, retired professional wrestler wore a pair of Alejandro Ingelmo 'Athena d’Orsay' pumps in white patent leather to the A&E Networks 2013 Upfront at Lincoln Center on May 8, 2013 in New York City.
Why it works?
The magenta colour dress is a statement piece, and the style of the shoes with the open criss cross heel detail are also stunning. The purpose of the outfit is to stand out, and a pair of black heels are too close of a colour to the dark purple clutch and the rich coloured dress. An ice white pair on the other hand certainly gets heads turning.

Rihanna
The Barbadian singer, songwriter, and actress wore the 'Pigalle Plato' in white patent leather by Christian Louboutin at southside for the NBA game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Los Angeles Clippers at Staples Center on April 7, 2013 in Los Angeles, California.
Why it works?
The edgy street style outfit has detailing in the forms of logo's and signs which have white bordering. The white platform pumps compliment the look, this is due to the outfits base colour being black, and thus a black pair of heels would just add to this and not stand out.
