Danielle’s Must-Have Holiday Shoes for 2024

 

Happy holiday season! I’m Danielle Kalish, LifeStride’s senior design director. As a shoe designer and a mom of two, I’m all about holiday shoes that look chic and festive but also feel incredibly comfortable.

 

From holiday heels for all the parties and celebrations to comfortable flats and loafers for shopping, decorating, and getting things done, we’ve got everything you need to make it through the beautiful chaos of the season while still feeling merry and bright.

 

Here are my favorite comfortable shoes for all your holiday party outfits and travel outfits, plus styling tips on how and where I’ll be wearing them!

Shop Holiday Party Styles

Admire Dress Sandal

This block-heel pump is the way to go if you’re looking for a little extra height but want to stay comfortable. The ankle strap gives it a really classic, timeless feel. I love wearing these with a dress and statement accessories, especially in the tartan green color.

Aire Slingback Pump

I am so obsessed with this stunning pump. The T-strap design and slingback give it a flirty and strappy look, and you won’t believe how comfortable they are with our Soft System comfort technology for cushion, support, and flex that lasts all day long. Plus, it comes in the perfect holiday red.

Cameo 2 Mary Jane Flat

After seeing so much love for our super comfortable Cameo Mary Jane flat, we added the perfect touch of studs to give it a little extra edge. These are perfect to wear with a pant or a little holiday dress when you want just a touch of metallic.

Happy Friday Lace Up Sneaker

Going somewhere this holiday? You have to pack and wear these slip-on sneakers. With Bzees Air Step technology, they’re insanely lightweight and have tons of cushion and arch support. I’ll be slipping them on to and from the airport and for a cute, sporty touch to my favorite travel looks.

Maya Ankle Bootie

This is the perfect party boot for the season. The sculpted kitten heel makes it really on trend and wearable, while the upper is super clean and versatile. The silver metallic gives it the perfect shine!

Monique Slingback

I love a strappy heel for the holidays, and the Monique is the perfect modern take. The asymmetrical straps with buckle give it a fresh feel, and the kitten heel is both trend-forward and so wearable.

Minx Bling Pump

If you’re looking for a little extra sparkle, this is the pump for you. The rectangular buckle with rhinestone accents looks so elevated, and the low block heel will keep you comfortable for any celebration.

Promise Flat

More of a flat girl? We designed the Promise to give you the sophisticated look and feel of a heel, but on a softly pointed toe ballet flat. It looks really feminine and flattering, and the red color is festive and fun.
