The annual Capital FM Summertime Ball kicked off on June 9 in London, and it hosted some of the biggest names in pop music.
Some hot shoes walked the arrival carpet to our delight before the many concerts began. If you want to update your shoe collection this summer and need inspiration, allow this lineup to act as a small guide. Look at the celebrities we spotted and what they wore before hitting the stage.
