Mules

Mules! Mules! Mules! Some of you might remember how massive of a trend these shoes were back in the 90s. Well fast forward to present day and it looks as if they've made a muleassive comeback. See what I did there? Mule. Massive. Mule(m)assive. Get it? LOL nope! Okay okay, I know when to stop lol :( For those who are not yet familiar with them, mules are a backless shoe that is often open-toed. They come in a variety of different heel heights so can easily be worn during the day or at night, dressed up or dressed down. Although I don't consider them to be the most flattering shoe they're unbelievably comfortable and are extremely easy to style.

Below are a selection of four different outfits all of which incorporate a pair of mules that are available on the high-street. Hopefully this will provide you ladies with some sort of inspiration on what to wear them with and also help generate further outfit ideas. I've also filmed an OOTD for my YouTube channel showing how I styled my pair of mules which happen to be those featured in the second outfit idea. What are you thoughts on mules? Are you a fan of them or are you quite happy to say that you wouldn't be seen dead in them? Lol :P X
