Welcome to Currently Trending, a special series where we highlight the products people can’t get enough of right now. Whether it’s blowing up on social media or selling nonstop on Rank & Style, this is where you'll find it.

Let’s be realistic: There’s limited space in your suitcase for shoes. We all play the game of “what will I actually wear?” when planning for a trip, and oftentimes, heels aren’t the answer. That said, there are usually events on the itinerary that call for formal footwear, whether it be dinner at a Michelin-star restaurant or a wedding abroad. In these situations, you need a walkable shoe that still has style. Lucky for you, we’ve rounded up a list of options below that offer just that with the help of our data-powered algorithm and team of shopping experts.

Even if you don’t have a vacation coming up on the calendar, investing in a walkable heel is a good idea for plenty of reasons (like long days at the office and concerts with standing room only). Ahead, see which heels shoppers are turning to for just such occasions, with options from iconic names like Dolce Vita and Loeffler Randall.
