When the first Sex and the City movie was first released back in 2008, the world went wild for the now-iconic blue Manolo Blahnik stilettos Carrie Bradshaw wore for her wedding.
The Manolo Blahnik Hangisi 105 Buckle-Embellished Satin Courts, £755 here (was £945), became the it shoe of the year, and 15 years later, we’re still obsessed with the style.
With the second season of Sex and the City’s follow up series, And Just Like That, finishing recently, the world is once again coveting the shoe closet of Carrie and co, and our love of the embellished stilettos has been reignited.
Because we’re not in any position to be dropping almost £950 on a pair of shoes (and still can’t understand how Carrie could manage it), we’ve found the perfect alternative to her beloved Manolos – and they cost just £60.
Mango’s Jewel Heel Shoes, £59.99 here, have an almost identical look to Carrie’s wedding stilettos, although they come in a much more versatile shade of black that makes them easy to pair with just about anything in your wardrobe.
The heels come in sizes 2-9, with all sizes currently still in stock so you can snap them up immediately.
Just like the famed SATC pair, Mango’s heels have an oversized diamante brooch on the toe of each shoe, although they have a slingback heel, rather than an enclosed one, which actually makes them a little comfier to wear.
With a similar pointed toe shape and narrow 10cm high stiletto heel, the Jewel Heel Shoes, £59.99 here, may not be practical for everyday use unless you’re a seasoned heels wearer like Carrie.
However, they’re the perfect finishing touch to an outfit, whether it's jeans and a T-shirt for brunch or an evening gown for a formal event.
If you’re on the lookout for a lower heel that makes them a little more accessible for day-to-day wear, these Navy Satin Brooch Flat Pumps, £14.99 here (was £29.99), from Quiz are completely flat, and come in the iconic Carrie Bradshaw blue, making them perfect for wearing just about anywhere when you want to add a little something extra to your outfit.
Still want a little bit of height? The lower kitten heel on these Miss Diva Kitty Diamante Brooch Pointed Toe Court Shoes, £32.99 here, makes them perfect for wearing day or night.
We may still be lusting after Carrie’s shoe closest, but at least now we’re one step closer to one of the most coveted shoe collections of all time.
