Jennifer Aniston's transitional summer outfit has one clever detail I'm copying – it solves the uncomfy heel dilemma
Sophisticated and versatile, Jen’s elegant heel style is comfortable too
Jennifer Aniston has an enviable shoe collection. From her go-to Archie's flip-flops to the adidas Sambas she can be seen sporting on the regular, it’s clear that she not only prioritises style and trends, but also top-notch comfort.
While we might usually turn to heels for elevated occasions, such as wedding guest looks or date night outfits, Jennifer Aniston's latest look proves you can team style and height.
On the set of The Morning Show, she was seen wearing block heels with an autumn-ready outfit. Featuring a thick, solid heel, the wide base helps to distribute body weight more evenly than a stiletto or slimmer heel, making them more comfortable and wearable for longer periods. Delivering balance and stability, her neutral shoes will work from AM to PM for the months ahead.
It's not just their classic and timeless approach to design that makes Sole Bliss's block heels a celebrity favourite, it's also their dedication to comfort. This pair feature triple-layer underfoot cushioning, as well as a spacious fit for bunions and wide feet.
These Vivaia heels give the classic black heel an update with their knitted, textured upper that is understated but really packs a sophisticated punch. Plus, they boast arch support and a cushioned, anti-rub heel pad.
An elevated, occasion-ready take on the trendy ballet flat, these block heels from Massimo Dutti are a seriously chic staple. Whether worn with midi dresses and skirts, or your favourite tailored trousers, they can give any look an elevated spin.
Block heels come in so many iterations, and this pair from Anthropologie are a real hybrid. Offering a unique but sophisticated look, they blend loafers with a slingback. Thanks to a low block heel and stitch-detailed front, they're elegant yet directional

When it comes to wearable block heels, this pair from Sézane are a standout. Thanks to patent black leather, a low block heel and a supportive ankle strap, they have a retro-inspired look that offers stability and style. They're available in a range of vibrant hues, too.
These Next heels offer a sharper take on the structured style of Jennifer's block heel pumps. A vamp shoe-inspired silhouette feels elegant, yet fashion-forward. The long toe style will also help to lengthen your legs and will work well poking out under a tailored trouser leg.
Worn with smart-casual outfits that transition from the office to post-work plans with ease, or with barrel-leg jeans to add a touch of sophistication to everyday outfits, block heels offer elevation in all senses of the word. Elongating the leg, they add elegance but still take comfort into consideration.
A great addition to a capsule wardrobe, you’ll wonder what you did before them. Block heels are a fail-safe option when you want to dress up your look a little more and bring in a polished feel that, at the same time, remains understated and effortless.
Jen styled her block heels with an autumn-ready ensemble that's easy to recreate. Wearing black tailored, straight-leg trousers with an ankle-grazing hem, her heels looked streamlined against the trouser style. Her knitted top offered just the right amount of weight and warmth for transitional dressing, and would work well under a blazer, as seen on Jennifer on set, bare-armed or under a trench coat for cooler days.
