See The Sky-High Stilettos And 6-Inch Heels That Dropped Our Jaws At The BET Hip Hop Awards

There's nothing like eye-catching footwear to show that a woman's in charge.

In our opinion, there's nothing like a pair of sky-high stilettos to show that a woman's in charge and confident in her direction. From strappy 6-inch pumps to over-the-top platform boots, we are always impressed to see our favorite stars strut the red carpet with style and poise. Oftentimes, we are left speechless as we wonder how they manage to sashay down the step-and-repeat without showing an ounce of pain. Talk about goals!

This year, we've noticed a resurgence of heightened footwear after celebrities left virtual events in the past and returned to in-person award shows. Eager to see what shoe trends we will spot at the 2021 BET Hip Hop Awards, we decided to highlight the stylish footwear that wowed us at previous events. Keep scrolling to see the sky-high shoes!
