I’ve never really been a huge fan of bright colors or patterns in my clothing. On the occasion that I do feel a little bit louder than usual and particularly glitzy, I rarely go to jewelry or makeup – I go to shoes. As one of my favorite parts of an outfit, my shoe collection is not only the most voluminous portion of my wardrobe, but also the brightest and most unique.

New Year’s Eve is only of my favorite Shoe-Opportunity Holidays (SOH). That means, essentially, that it’s a holiday where I can bust out a crazy pair of shoes and it’s not completely strange or, God forbid, gauche…. (Frederick!?)

Fortunately, if you’re not in a place to drop serious cash on a pair of shimmering, wild shoes – fear not. Here are some killer heels under $50!
