Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Gina, £185: These very beautiful Cinderella-at-the-ball shoes demand a taxi account. They are so delicate that you cannot walk far in them (it would help if the straps were elasticated) but one has to make these sort of sacrifices if one wants to be fashionable. Gina, 189 Sloane Street, London SW1. Inquiries on 0171-235 2932
Office, £54.99: With the buckles and ankle strap, these are a little over the top. The heel is much sturdier than the others selected but the buckles at the front are only for show and do not fasten - so those with narrow feet beware. From Office, 10 South Molton Street, London W1 and 60 Neal Street, London WC2. Inquiries and mail order, 0181-838 4447
Pied A Terre Originals, £79: Disco dolly shoe. You'll need to grip with your toes to keep these shoes on, but they win the seal of approval for their shape and simple elegance. Available from Pied A Terre, 123a High Street, Kensington, London W8; 58 King Street, Manchester; and selected branches nationwide. Inquiries on 0171-491 3857
Gucci, £145: These shoes are to die for. Made of red patent leather, they are very sexy without being sleazy. Available from Gucci at 17-18 Sloane Street, London SW1 and 32-33 Old Bond Street, London W1
Russell & Bromley, £115: Very elegant, beautifully lightweight in powder blue, these are fairy-tale shoes that little girls might dream of. And they are well designed, with an elastic strap at the back to offer some stability. From Russell & Bromley, 24-25 New Bond Street, London W1 and selected branches. Inquiries on 0171-629 6903
