Girls glitter heels with a pearl and rhinestone studded bow, crystal-scattered upper, and central colour-matched gem, in 4 colours for £27.99
Look at the bow on these shoes and you will see something closer to jewellery than footwear. Pearl beads across both wings. Rhinestone chain borders outlining each one. A large cushion-cut gem at the centre in a gold setting with smaller rhinestones around it. And tulle layers beneath the whole structure giving it softness and depth.
Now look at the rest of the shoe. Unlike any other glitter heel in the range, the Crystal Pearl Bow Glitter Heels have rhinestone crystals scattered individually across the upper itself. Not just on the bow. Not just on the heel. Throughout the whole shoe. When this one catches the light, it sparkles from every surface simultaneously.
Available in blue, pink, purple, and silver at £27.99. Free UK delivery on orders over £13, with Klarna and Clearpay at checkout.
What Makes These Shoes Special
- Pearl and rhinestone bow on the toe: both wing surfaces are studded with pearl beads and bordered by rhinestone chains, with a large cushion-cut gem in a gold setting at the centre
- Crystal-scattered glitter upper: flat rhinestone crystals are set individually throughout the glitter upper, creating a constellation effect across the entire shoe surface
- Colour-matched central bow gem: the large cushion-cut stone at the centre of the bow matches the colour of the shoe, tying the whole decoration together
- Tulle bow layers: soft tulle beneath the pearl and rhinestone wings gives the bow depth and a light, floating quality
- Moon and star rhinestone charm hanging from the decorative gold buckle ring on the ankle strap
- Colour-matched lining: the insole coordinates with the upper colour of the shoe
- Low block heel at approximately 3cm: stable and comfortable for extended wear at parties and events
- Adjustable pin buckle strap with a decorative gold ring, allowing a secure fit across different foot widths
- Non-slip rubber sole providing grip on polished and tiled indoor surfaces
- PU leather construction throughout, durable and easy to wipe clean
The Pearl and Rhinestone Bow in Detail
The bow on these shoes has a level of detail that takes a moment to take in fully. Here is exactly what it is made of:
- Pearl bead studding: individual pearl beads are set across the surface of both bow wings, covering the upper face of each wing in a scattered pearl pattern
- Rhinestone chain borders: the outer edge of each wing is outlined with a chain of small rhinestones, giving the bow wings a defined jewelled border
- Central gem in gold setting: a large cushion-cut stone sits at the centre of the bow in a raised gold setting, surrounded by a ring of small rhinestones, and the gem matches the colour of the shoe
- Tulle underlayer: soft net tulle extends from beneath the bow wings, adding volume and a light, delicate quality to the overall decoration
- Star sequins in the tulle: small star shapes are scattered through the tulle layers, adding additional sparkle that softens the jewelled quality of the pearls and rhinestones above
The result is a bow that reads as genuinely ornate rather than simply decorated. The combination of pearls (which diffuse light softly) and rhinestones (which reflect it sharply) creates a bow that has multiple distinct sparkle qualities happening simultaneously. In photographs, it is the first thing the eye goes to, and it holds that attention because there is enough detail within it to reward a closer look.
The Crystal-Scattered Upper
The upper on these shoes carries a feature that no other shoe in the collection has: individually placed flat rhinestone crystals scattered throughout the glitter base. These are not part of the bow or the heel. They are set directly into the upper, spread across the full surface of the shoe from toe to heel.
Most glitter shoes rely entirely on the shimmer of the sequin base to create their effect. The scattered crystals on this upper create something different: distinct points of light that flash individually rather than producing a uniform overall shimmer. Under natural light, the crystals appear as bright spots within the glitter. Under flash photography or indoor event lighting, the individual flashes are visible and dramatic.
It is a feature that makes the shoe look significantly more expensive than it is, and one that parents and guests tend to notice and comment on at events.
Available Colours
Four colours, each with the bow gem matching the colour of the shoe:
| Colour | Best For | Works Well With |
|---|---|---|
| Pink | Birthday parties, christenings, flower girl, princess-themed occasions | White, blush, ivory, lilac, and soft pastel dresses |
| Blue | Princess and ice queen themes, garden events, summer parties, school performances | White, silver, navy, yellow, and floral occasion dresses |

What Occasions Are These Shoes For?
The pearl and rhinestone bow gives these shoes a formal quality that makes them appropriate for weddings and christenings, while the colour range and sparkle of the upper keeps them fun and celebratory for birthday parties and themed events. The blue version in particular is popular for ice princess and winter-themed occasions, where the colour-matched blue gem and scattered crystals work naturally with the aesthetic.
For photoshoots, these are among the most camera-friendly shoes in the range. The combination of the pearl and rhinestone bow, the scattered crystals across the upper, and the individual gem at the bow centre gives the shoe multiple distinct visual elements that photograph well at any distance and under any lighting.
For dressing ideas across different occasions, our girls special occasion wear collection has matching dresses and accessories across all events and seasons.
How to Style These Shoes
The ornate bow and crystal-scattered upper mean these shoes deliver considerable visual weight on their own. The outfit works best when the dress is clean enough to let the shoe be clearly seen rather than competing with it:

Care Instructions
The pearl beading, rhinestones, and scattered crystals on these shoes need a little more care than a plain glitter shoe to keep them looking their best:
- Cleaning the upper: Wipe down gently with a soft, lightly damp cloth after use. Work across the surface with light pressure rather than scrubbing, to avoid dislodging the set crystals over time. Do not soak or submerge in water.
- The pearl and rhinestone bow: Wipe with a dry or very slightly damp soft cloth. Avoid snagging the rhinestone chain borders or the pearl beads on clothing or rough surfaces when putting the shoe on and taking it off. Do not apply cleaning sprays directly to the bow or central gem.
- The central gem: The cushion-cut gem is set in a raised gold mount. Wipe with a dry cloth. Avoid knocking it against hard surfaces, as the setting can loosen over time with repeated impact.
- The scattered crystals: The flat crystals across the upper are set into the glitter fabric. With normal wear they hold well. Avoid scrubbing the upper with abrasive cloths, which can catch and pull the crystal settings.
- The moon and star charm: Wipe with a dry cloth. Avoid submerging in water or applying metal cleaning products, which can cause tarnishing.
- The buckle strap: Wipe the metallic strap with a lightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Keep the pin buckle clear of debris to maintain smooth adjustment.
- Drying and storage: If damp, fill with dry tissue paper and air dry at room temperature away from direct heat. Store in a shoe box or dust bag in a cool, dry place. Keep away from direct sunlight to protect the metallic finish and the colour of the gem.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is unique about these shoes compared to other glitter heels in the range?
Two things set these apart. First, the bow is studded with pearl beads and rhinestone borders rather than being plain satin or fabric, and it carries a colour-matched cushion-cut gem at the centre. Second, the upper itself has flat rhinestone crystals scattered individually throughout the glitter base, a feature no other shoe in the collection has. The result is a shoe that sparkles across its entire surface from multiple decorative elements simultaneously, rather than just from the glitter base alone.
Does the gem colour match the shoe colour?
Yes. The large cushion-cut gem at the centre of the bow is matched to the colour of the shoe in each version. The blue shoe has a blue gem, the pink has a pink gem, the purple has a purple gem, and the silver has a clear or white crystal. This gives the shoe a fully coordinated look where every decorative element works together.
What are the crystals on the upper?
The upper has flat rhinestone crystals set individually into the glitter base across the entire shoe surface. These are separate from the bow decoration and from the heel. They create a constellation-like effect across the upper, producing individual flashes of light as the shoe catches the light from different angles. Under flash photography or indoor event lighting, these individual crystal points are clearly visible and give the shoe a significantly more elaborate appearance than a standard glitter finish.
Will the pearl beads or rhinestones come off the bow?
The pearls and rhinestones are set into the bow structure rather than simply glued onto the surface. With normal wear and careful handling, they hold their position well. The main thing to avoid is snagging the bow on rough surfaces or catching the rhinestone chain border on clothing when putting the shoes on, which can put stress on the setting over repeated use.
Are these shoes comfortable for children to wear all day?
Yes. The low block heel at approximately 3cm has a wide, stable base that distributes the child’s weight evenly and gives good balance. The colour-matched cushioned insole and soft lining keep the foot comfortable through extended wear. The adjustable pin buckle strap can be set to each child’s foot width to give a snug and secure fit that prevents rubbing and slipping.
Are these suitable for a flower girl or wedding?
Yes. The silver version is the most popular for formal occasions. The pearl detailing on the bow echoes the pearl accessories commonly used in wedding styling, and the scattered crystals in the upper catch venue lighting particularly well in photographs. The low block heel is stable enough for a child to wear comfortably through a full ceremony and reception. They work well alongside white, ivory, and champagne flower girl gowns.
How does the strap close?
These shoes use an adjustable pin buckle strap. The pin passes through adjustment holes in the strap and locks into the buckle frame for a secure and adjustable fit. The decorative gold ring and moon and star charm are ornamental elements on the outside of the buckle. The buckle allows the fit to be adjusted to different foot widths throughout the strap range.
What age range do these shoes fit?
These cover UK sizes 10.5 through to 3.5, which typically fits girls aged approximately 4 to 10 years. Always measure your child’s foot length in centimetres and match it to the size chart rather than going by age, as children’s feet vary considerably at any given age.
How do I measure my child’s foot correctly?
Stand your child on a piece of paper with their heel against a wall. Mark the tip of the longest toe, then measure from the wall to the mark in centimetres. Match that figure to the foot length column in the size chart above. If the measurement falls between two sizes, always choose the larger one.
Are these shoes non-slip?
Yes. The rubber sole provides grip on polished floors, tiles, and most indoor surfaces found at party venues, wedding halls, and event spaces. They are not intended for wet outdoor use, but for all standard indoor occasion and party wear they offer reliable traction.
Can I return or exchange if the size is wrong?
Yes. We accept returns within 30 days of your order date, provided the shoes are unused and in their original condition with all tags still attached. Contact us to arrange an exchange for a different size and we will guide you through the process. Exchanges are dispatched within 48 hours of receiving the returned pair, subject to stock availability. Return postage is at the buyer’s cost.
Can I pay in instalments?
Yes. Klarna and Clearpay are both available at checkout. We also accept PayPal, Visa, Mastercard, and American Express.
How long does UK delivery take?
UK delivery is free on orders over £13 and typically arrives within 5 to 20 working days. You will receive a confirmation email when your order is placed and a second when it has been dispatched. If your order does not arrive within the expected window, contact us and we will look into it promptly.
