I'm a Shoe-Obsessed Shopping Editor Buying This Blister-Proof Style in Bulk By [Eva Thomas]( Senior Commerce Writer I recently experienced something that I really can't stand: I wore a pair of shoes that battered my heels so badly, I couldn't really find any shoes to wear that wouldn't reopen the blister. I know, TMI, but I had just about given up hope of comfortably wearing any shoes again when I realized...slingback heels. The [Hollywood-loved shoe]( keeps my heels free and clear of any rubbing, so naturally, I bought them in bulk. A pair I have been eyeing and will definitely be buying now that they're on sale are [these Steve Madden pumps]( with a humble, easy-to-walk kitten-heel, backstrap that hold the shoes in place without rubbing the backs of my feet, and a fun, on-trend silver design that takes any outfit to the next level. I also think everyone needs a red and black heel in their wardrobe, which is why [these Franco Sartos]( and [Jeffrey Campbells]( are at the top of my must-have list. The former has a no-fuss silhouette with a unique side-cutout, while the latter is simple and timeless, giving it instant appeal as there are infinite ways to wear it. No wonder celebs like [Nicole Kidman]( and [Reese Witherspoon]( are fans of slingbacks; they're stylish, sure, but they're also a godsend for battered heels, too. Thankful for you (slingback heels)!
