Must-Have Heels! Affordable Footwear Dominates Awards Season Red Carpets

Affordable yet stylish, these heels are quickly becoming a favorite among Hollywood’s elite.

At the Vanity Fair Oscar Party 2025, Paris Hilton dazzled attendees by pairing her shimmering silver Sophie Couture gown with Aldo’s Stessy 2.0 Pumps.

Paris isn’t the only celebrity opting for these budget-friendly shoes. At the SAG Awards, Ariana Grande complemented her soft pink Loewe dress with Aldo’s Stessy Sling Pumps.

Shortly after, Madison Beer was seen wearing the same slingback model in black at the Vanity Fair Young Hollywood party.

Currently, Aldo is offering a promotion where customers can get 50% off a second pair when they buy Grande’s selected heels. Now’s the perfect time to pick up both the white and leopard print versions.

For those who prefer a timeless look, the Stessy 2.0 Pump was also worn by Halsey at the “Babygirl” premiere and by Lupita Nyong’o during the “Wild Robot” press tour, both opting for the leopard print.

Kacey Musgraves has been spotted multiple times in the original Stessy stilettos, including at the Met Gala and several afterparties in 2019.

The upgraded version boasts over 60 five-star reviews on Amazon, with customers praising their comfort and walkability.

“Stessy is an essential part of anyone’s wardrobe!” exclaimed another satisfied customer.

With this year’s awards season showcasing these heels, it’s clear that both stars and their stylists are fans.
