Accessories make the outfit, and at Mikko Shoes NZ, we have the perfect shoe for every occasion.

Whether you’re preparing to make an impression on date night, or have a special meal planned with loved ones, we’ve rounded up some of our top tips to ensure you’re feeling - and looking - your best!

Discover our curated collection of quality, European shoes that will ensure you put your best foot forward, every time.

Date night

Whether it’s dinner, cocktails, or a late dessert date – the outfit options are endless. From gorgeous dresses and floaty skirts to an immaculate pantsuit, it’s the perfect chance to dress in what you feel best. If you’re going to be on your feet, pair your look with a wedge, or block heel, for a little lift without compromising on comfort.

After work cocktails

A great occasion to be playful with your style! Channel a glamorous resort look with fabulously fun accessories that make a statement – pastel tones, suede strapping, peep-toe accents and sculptural heels.

Pro tip: Keep the look polished and sophisticated with a matching bag, while pulling the whole outfit together. See our top selects here.

A dinner party with friends

One of our favourite pastimes, this kind of at-home occasion calls for footwear styles that balance glamorous with understated - we suggest opting for a low-heeled slip-on to make it easy at the door.

Add elegant accents and luxe leather finishes with metallics, fringe and chain detailing. View our edit of styles perfect for an upcoming dinner party here.


A night at the theatre

With the abundance of productions on offer, heading to the theatre is a wonderful reason to get glammed up! If you don’t wear your dressier shoes very often, this is the perfect opportunity to make the most of those higher heeled styles - with the ample seating time, you can forego the worry of being on your feet for too long. We’ve rounded up our favourite in-season styles with heels for a chic night out, here.


Whatever your plans, quality and comfort is key to a most enjoyable night out – and at Mikko, there’s no compromises!

Here’s to stylish and memorable nights out in your beautiful Mikko shoes.
