SO pretty.

Okay, wearing them all the time might be a little difficult considering that these River Island shoes are heels, not the most practical of choices for everyday wear. However, we still want to wear them all day, every day because we're that in love with the embellished, velvet, block heel style. These shoes made quite the splash at the high street brand's recent autumn winter press preview and having had a look at the website today, we found that they're now in stock (in most sizes too).

Of course, like all-must have style items, there's no point in hanging around if you do like them because they will sell out in next to no time. The 'Blue Velvet Embellished Block Heel Sandals' aren't cheap at €90 but given the intricate detail and beaded embellishment, the River Island shoes look expensive and will add a statement touch to an ensemble, even your regular everyday jeans.

Perrrty shoes ?? Loved these beauties and the whole #RiverIslandAW17 collection at today's press preview! Lots more on my insta stories! #riverisland #shoes #pressday #aw17 #stylist

Oh and this confirms that velvet is back for the new season after it proved such a major trend for autumn winter 2016. If you invested in the trend last time around, the good news is you can recycle all those pieces in the coming months... Main image via Instagram: River Island
