Fashion magpie? Then you can't have failed to notice that Tinseltown tootsies are twinkling in spring's hottest shoe trend - the silver heel.

Spotted on everyone from Lea Michele to Emily Blunt at the SAGs and guaranteed to be a staple on the Oscars red carpet, awards season this year has been all about the silver shoe, and it looks set to be the summer's must-have metallic.

Stomping down the coolest runways, with everyone from Giles Deacon to Phillip Lim taking a shine to silver skycraper heels, it was Marc Jacobs' fabulously futuristic footwear on the Louis Vuitton carousel catwalk that had the front row truly ore-inspired.

Fresh and oh-so modern paired with the softest pastel confections (which you cannot live without this summer), sleek and sharp with vibrant jewel tones - but just as perfect for adding edge to wintery neutrals like black, navy and grey - the silver shoe has proved it's mettle in the goes-with-any-outfit ranks. And whether you're channelling sci-fi chic in mirrored styles with chunky heels, or keeping it classic in vertiginous, shiny stillies, one thing is for sure - silver has taken first place in the hot shoe stakes.
