The Hunt: Purple Pumps to wear to work

< >

2021 Update: here are our newest favorite wine-colored, purple pumps for work!

Sure, we all know what basics professional women are expected to have in their closets, but if you’re purchasing one for the first time or replacing one you’ve worn into the ground, it can be a pain to find exactly the best incarnation in stores. In “The Hunt,” we search the stores for a basic item that every woman Camiseta Inter Milan ought to have.

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: purple pumps to wear to work are one of my favorite things.
I like all shades of purple, truth be told, but my absolute favorites for pumps are the ones the color of wine, with a lot of reddish brown in them (but too dark a color to be considered a classic red or even a cordovan pump). 
They add a tiny bit of pizzazz, and look great with a variety of colors, including: black, navy, gray, cobalt, olive/army green, and beiges and whites.
Ladies, what color heels (not black or nude) do you find to be the most versatile color for pumps? have you purchased any purple pumps to wear to work recently, or are you loving any older pairs?

I don’t think we’ve featured the Margo before, but it’s been around for a while, has a classic look, and is provided in tons of colors. Amazon has it on sale today (take an extra 20% off with code NEW4FALL) — Zappos also has it, with a ton of reviews, if you choose to purchase there.

I always like a good strappy pump, and these dark purple suede ones are from a brand I’ve had great luck with in the past for comfortable heels: Anne Klein. This 3″ heel comes in four colors, including purple suede. other options in this price range: Ann Taylor (two pumps come down to $75-$80ish with code FRIENDS40 during their friends & family sale). Pictured, at $79: Anne Klein AKFion

These Sam Edelman pumps look awesome — trendy pointed toe, good deep vamp (assuming you’re not squeamish about toe cleavage), and a sensible 3″ heel. They’re also available in sizes 4-13, in regular and broad sizes, for $109 at Nordstrom. Sam Edelman Orella Pump

On the con side: yes, these shoes are very high (4″ heel!). but there are so numerous other pluses I had to feature them. For starters, they’re from reader (and personal) favorite brand Stuart Weitzman — and a beautiful shade of purple — and on crazy sale at 6pm for $128. (They were originally $425!) And, booyah: they’re still available in sizes 6.5-11. Stuart Weitzman Diploma

These 2″ heels from Vince look like the best of a ton of worlds: conservative, trendy, comfortable. (I always think a vamp that exposes a bit of toe cleavage is much more flattering, but the straight line vamp, like here, is very popular right now). These shoes are $350 at Neiman Marcus and available in a number of other colors. Other options in this splurgey price range: Stuart Weitzman, Ferragamo (on sale at Bluefly), Anyi Lu, through Spiga.

In the priciest tier, Manolo Blahnik is in our Hall of fame and provides a beautiful “bordo” suede, but I’m much more partial to this beautiful Prada almond-toe pump. At 3.25″ (85mm) the shoe is high but not Camiseta Crystal Palace FC crazy high for work — I alsonull
