 Bettye Muller, J Shoes Are Blockbusters Designers Add Flair With Creative Color These days, consumers are looking for optimum versatility, but still want fashion flair. One easy way to spice up a traditional pump is with modern art-inspired color blocking. Whether designers are mixing shades of the same hue or bright color with neutral tones, these high heels boast classic sophistication with flavor. Take a cue from Isaac Mizrahi, who keeps it simple with two distinct swaths of yellow and orange on this dress, but uses a trio of neutrals on the handbag. Katharine platform pump by Coye Nokes

Newcomer Coye Nokes keeps it classic combining slick navy patent with matte taupe leather. While this style at first glance appears to be all business, the uniquely curved blocking adds sex appeal. Lucia S288 by Pas de Rouge

The brand’s signature red insole may only be visible when the shoe has been removed, but it’s the peek of maroon that will really heat things up. Adding flair to a black suede Mary Jane, this triangle of color lightens the mood so this shoe can easily transition from day to night. Montana by Bettye Muller

Retails for $365
Bettye Muller reaches new heights with the Montana. By blending smooth nappa with soft suede, the designer touches on another popular trend of the season: mixing media. The fuchsia and brown combo is a classic, but it’s the red suede platform that makes this shoe a 21st century standout. Faith by Olsenhaus Pure Vegan

You gotta have faith, and in this case customers can do so without feeling guilty about harming the environment. Made from 100 percent organic cotton canvas and boasting a faux suede heel, the style is a solid shade of brown—until you get to the heel. The bright cobalt blue gives this “green” looker a kick.
