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.

You’ve heard of a party dress, but how about a pair of party shoes? Sure, rifling through the racks of your favorite department store looking for the perfect party dress will continue to be a yearly tradition, but one way to bring the fun back to the holiday season is to find a pair of festive shoes to go with it.

Shoes are to an outfit what ornaments are to a Christmas tree—arguably, the most exciting part. For example, a simple LBD can turn a few heads when paired with a set of statement heels. And those jeans you love to wear all the time? Tuck them into some knee-high boots, and suddenly, they look brand new. 

All this to say, if you’re looking for outfit inspiration for the holiday parties ahead, the best approach is to go from the ground up. To help you do just that, our team of product experts put together a list of 20 pairs of party shoes that know how to work a room.
