Nearly anything goes when it comes to unexpected footwear. Heels with joggers? Check. Slip-on sneakers with a shirtdress? Check. Even if you normally avoid high heels like the plague, there are plenty of memorable options for mid-height heels that’ll give you some lift without the risk of an ankle sprain. You don’t have to teeter around on 5-inch stilettos to look glam. Slip into these easier walking shoes for major appeal. See our picks in the gallery.
