Choosing which heels to wear to work is always a gamble. Do you wear the ridiculously trendy heels that you KNOW will make your feet ache by lunchtime? Or, do you wear an ugly and frumpy pair that are super comfortable? Well, you no longer have to sacrifice style for comfort because more brands are creating work heels that are both on-trend and comfortable enough to wear all day long.
We’ve compiled a list of some of the BEST work heels that are chic, comfortable, and work appropriate–yes, they actually exist! If you’re tired of commuting to work in your sneakers, check out these trendy heels that are all under $50:
ASOS ONYX Loafer Mid Heels ($45)
It doesn't get more office appropriate than loafers. These have a mini block heel that you can actually walk in with ease. We love the oxblood color that goes with almost anything and the sleek faux-croc texture.

Forever 21 Glen Plaid Print Mules ($24.90)
Say what you want about kitten heels, but they are great for both work and play! These mules have a 2-inch heel that provides a little height without sacrificing your ability to walk. TREND ALERT: The chic glen plaid print is going to be everywhere this spring!
"These shoes fit true to size! I wear a size 6, ordered a size 6, and they’re perfect! So stylish and surprisingly comfortable already for me. Hopefully, I won’t have to break them in!" -Janel Quoc
Nordstrom Sole Society Luella Flower Embroidered Slide ($47.96, originally $79.95)
If you love bold prints and patterns, then you'll love these crisscrossed-strap heels. The embroidered floral print makes this heel pop, while the block heel provides sturdiness for walking.
"I purchased the floral embroidered version of these shoes. They are even prettier then I expected. I usually wear flats but the heel on this shoe was just perfect for me. Stood on them for more than 6 hours and had no issues. The final plus for me was how many people stopped me as I was wearing them and complimented them." -mamaofallboys
Nordstrom Topshop Jetset Slingback Pump ($35, originally $75)
You can never go wrong with a pointy toe! These 3-inch pumps provide a little bit of height, while the slingback strap provides support. They're also 50% off, so snag them now!
Target x Who What Wear Gemma Patent Buckle Heeled Mules ($18.98, originally $37.99)
Can you believe these shoes are sold at Target?! They're 3.5-inch stilettos, so you're not too high off the ground. They also have a head-turning statement buckle that really makes the shoe pop!
"I absolutely love them. Not only did they look fantastic, but they were actually comfortable!! I am glad that I went up to a 7.5 rather than a 7 though. I think that the 7 would have been too short. I highly recommend them to anyone." -sk4
Urban Outfitters Wood Heel Mule ($49, originally $69)
Vegan leather mules with a chic, round wooden block heel that you could never tell were 4 inches! They also come in white and are $20 off!
