Choosing the Right Heels for Every Occasion in New Zealand

From stilettos to block heels, discover the perfect pair of heels at Nicole Rebstock for weddings, work, and everyday wear.

When it comes to women’s heels, finding the right style for the right occasion is everything. In New Zealand, where our days often span multiple settings—think morning meetings, midday errands, and evening catch-ups—it’s important to have a footwear wardrobe that blends style with practicality. Whether you’re attending a wedding, heading into the office, or dressing up denim for the weekend, the right heel can completely transform your look.

At Nicole Rebstock, we design heels that are elegant, wearable, and made to move with you. Here’s how to choose the perfect pair for every moment.

1. Wedding Heels: Elegant, Elevated, and Comfortable

Whether you're a guest, bridesmaid, or the bride herself, wedding heels in New Zealand need to balance beauty with wearability. Outdoor ceremonies and long receptions call for comfort you can count on—without compromising style.

Try: The Gabby Sandal is a favourite for wedding season. With its slim profile, delicate heel, and feminine straps, it’s both elegant and comfortable enough to wear all day. Available in timeless gold or nude, it pairs effortlessly with gowns and occasion dresses.

For more structure and a modern finish, the Flo Sandal offers extra height with its platform heel, making it ideal for longer events where support matters.

2. Work Heels: Sophisticated Styles for Long Days

The ideal work heel is polished, versatile, and designed to take you from desk to dinner. In NZ's more relaxed professional environments, that often means a refined block heel or sleek mid-height stiletto in classic tones.

Try: The Nemesis Heel—with its clean lines and pointed toe—is perfect for tailoring or elevated workwear. Looking for something even more wearable? 

The Nova Heel, with its block heel, pointed toe and subtle gold metal detailing, brings a modern edge to suiting or silk separates.

Our heels are handcrafted from premium leathers for all-day comfort, with cushioned footbeds and non-slip soles that support every step.

3. Casual Heels: Effortless Style for Everyday

For casual days out—brunches, shopping trips, or low-key gatherings—you want a heel that feels as relaxed as your weekend plans. Enter the barely-there sandal or low block mule.

Try: The Kylie Sandal delivers everyday appeal with its strappy silhouette and gold metal hardware detail. Easy to style with everything from jeans to flowy skirts, it's the ultimate day-to-night shoe.

The Evie Sandal is another go-to, nodding softly to 90’s styling with a trending mule cut. Its minimal profile and subtle retro feel make it a perfect addition to any summer wardrobe.

4. Event Heels: Statement-Making and Special

Sometimes, the occasion calls for something more. A cocktail party, formal dinner, or milestone birthday deserves a standout heel with personality.

Try: A bold stiletto or sculptural silhouette in high-shine leather or rich colour. The Sasha Heel, with its sleek finish and striking profile, is made for turning heads. Pair it with a sleek dress or suit for impact with elegance.

Final Thoughts: Invest in Versatility

Choosing the right heel isn’t just about the event—it’s about how a shoe makes you feel. At Nicole Rebstock, our heels are designed with intention: to empower, elevate, and move effortlessly with your lifestyle.

Whether you're dressing for a celebration or your daily routine, you’ll find timeless options across our range of stilettos, block heels, sandals, and mules—each handcrafted to stand the test of time.
