Ordinarily when picking an outfit, you choose the dress, then shoes, and then the accompanying accessories. But every now and again, a pair of shoes catch our eye that are so spectacular they scream to be the stylish starting off point.

These statement heels by Camilla Skovgaard are super sexy and defiantly devilish, fusing the Danish designer’s signature architectural shapes with sleek, slick lines and guaranteeing the admiring glances from onlookers will be working from the feet up.

With 15cm cigarette-thin stiletto heels (don’t worry, the 4cm platform will make them a whole lot more wearable), these leather sandals are strictly for the fierce and fearless, but don’t let that scare you – we’ve got the perfect pieces to team with them that’ll have you looking wow from head to toe.
