I am totally digging this new wave of hidden platform heels. How ingenious! I’ve always loved platform shoes being that I need all the help I can get in the height department. However, I’ve had to shy away from them or more formal events because of their tendency of looking bulky or even cheap if not done well.

These Report Signature Gala Sling Backs are absolutely hot. With a 5 heel and a 1 inch hidden platform, these pumps are no joke and would elevate most to supermodel stature. I just can’t get over how the platforms are fully masked, giving an uber sleek and elegant side view and creating a cleaner, more sophisticated look in general. $195 available on shopbop.com.
