When Marilyn Monroe said “Give a girl the right shoes and she can conquer the world” she may very well have been talking about black court shoes. Once the preserve of the office, the black court shoe has been sprinkled with the magic fairy dust of the fash pack and let off the leash to run free on a high street near you.

This is a wardrobe staple that will bring most outfits together and who wouldn’t want a pair of shoes that works with anything and everything? Skirts? Check. Jeans? Check. Tailored trousers? Check. At Earth, Wit & Style we wear ours with a boyfriend jean, a basic tee and a blazer – sleek yet achingly cool, with instant fashion points.
Before purchasing make the sure the toe has a point – instantly slimming and tres chic darling. Also check your heel pressure point – no point purchasing a sky high pair when you can only wear them for 30 minutes; these babies are meant to last all day (and night if you’re lucky!) And don’t drive in them – they need to look as good as they feel and scuffs are a no-no.

Zara always has its weight in gold of black pointy courts so make that your first point of call. Our Dune favourite has to be the Ali style; great for fit and price at £75. And last but not least blow the budget on a Choo or two; the Agnes is £395. But for a black pointy toe stiletto this is entirely reasonable: you will be in possession of the one item all fashion editors seem unable to live without.
