Trust

give a second thought the next time you go for shoe-shopping. Here we go!
- Ballet flats
Ballet flats are the trendiest footwear for a valid reason.
Not only they are super comfy and light on feet but they also look super stylish.
Ballerinas are the best daily footwear if you want to keep it casual yet
elegant.
If you are planning to go on a vacation do carry a
pair of nude and black ballerinas. They come in a wide variety of colors,
designs, and patterns which makes you appear fashionable enough.
Ballet flats can be worn with jeans, short dresses or
skirts and shorts. They go pretty well with formal attire and gives a presence
of professional, classic and simple look.
- Platform wedges sandals
Isn’t it a terrible feeling to wear heels all day
long? Say no more, platform wedges sandals have come for the rescue.
Platform wedges sandals are much more comfortable which make us look tall and
lean, without leaving us with any strain unlike what heels do. Wedges do not
put pressure on the foot rather they evenly distribute body weight on the sole.
Platform wedges are walkable and can be worn
throughout the day for a casual outing or formal event as well. They vary in
heights so you can choose between them which suits you the most.
They can be paired with any clothing be it jeans,
shorts, skirts jumpsuits, short dresses and work dresses as well. What’s better
than this?
- Sneakers
Sneakers can be worn with almost every attire like-Short
dresses, maxi dress, shorts, skirts, jeans, jumpsuits and work dresses.
Sneakers are versatile and prevent you from tripping since
it is providing support to the entire feet. You can wear them in the gym then
straight head to a party and still, you will be able to grab everyone’s
attention.
The best part of wearing sneakers is – you can dance
your heart out without getting your foot hurt later. Foot and ankle injuries
are severe therefore wearing comfy and stable footwear is crucial to get
yourself protected.
Your closet should have a pair of white sneakers as they
go pretty well with almost every color of outfit. To have more professional
look pair them with a button shirt and a blazer.
- Pumps
If you love heels, then pumps should be in your shoe
list. They help to increase the height and makes your leg appear to be taller.
They either come in a closed toe or peep toe and looks glamorous for casual or
formal attire.
You can choose between the medium or high heel of the
pumps. Just make sure you can’t wear them regularly if the heel is higher since
it is more prone to falls and injuries. It would be better to choose the heel
size as per the occasion. If you wish to sit and look pretty, then definitely
go for high-heeled pumps.
Match the color of your blazer or dress with the pumps
to have a rich look. Consider nude neutral or black color of pumps if the
outfit has a bright and bold pattern.
- Espadrilles Wedges
Espadrilles wedges for women are the trendiest and
smart wedges which can be worn for a casual day outing, evening date and formal
events with ease. The thick base provides extra height without causing any foot
pain.
Their sole is made up of thick fibrous rope made up of
jute which provides comfort while walking. Espadrilles have cushion and look
cute while worn with summer dresses, shorts, skinny jeans, and skirts. They
allow the air to pass through them because of the jute sole thus prevent any
odor or foul smell.
Designers have remodeled espadrilles into sneakers as
well, you can opt for them to get a sporty and dapper look with extra height.
- Loafers
Your shoe closet is incomplete
without loafers. You know why?
Like ballet flats, loafers can be
worn with any outfit at any occasion. They give a classy look when paired with
the same color of blazer. Loafers have cushion too so you can wear them
throughout the day and walk freely.
They are comprised of elastic - best
for those who find laces inconvenient. Do invest in a pair of black and nude
color loafers.
Boots
Boots are my
personal favorite because it’s stylish and has various types. Varied sizes, weight and pattern make them a
must to have in the shoe closet. Here I have presented three of the best boots
types among many:
Ankle Boots
Walkable and comfy heels make ankle boots one of the best options to wear with a short dress, skirt and skinny jeans regardless of the season. Available in both lower and high heels. You can wear them anywhere regardless of the season.
Mid-shaft Boots
Boots just above the ankle but below the calf – better for winter and cooler places. Mid-shafts boots are available with or without laces and support the entire foot. Most likely, they have lower heels and are comfortable to walk in.
Calf Boots
Flat Sandals
I can bet every
woman must have 2-3 pair of flat sandals in their wardrobe. After all who reach
out to high heels or boots when going to a nearby shop or market? Flat sandals
come in numerous type, designs, and patterns. Considered best for daily wear.
Oxfords
Oxfords are my top
most pick for office dresses. They made me look professional, simple and
stunning. The metallic oxfords are very trendy and can be worn to a party or
dinner at night for an unexpected look. The iconic laces of oxfords make them
unique and a must to have in every women closet. They are strapless and very
convenient to wear.
Closed Toe wedges
Closed toe wedges never fail to impress me whenever I wish to look girly and flattering. It is because of their unique style which adds the oomph and feminine factor when worn with the right outfit- short skirts, shorts, dresses and jeans.
The ankle strap
provides extra grip and support to the feet which are adjustable too. The ankle
and toes protected in deep cup hole and deliver fancy look. Wear them anywhere
with a frilled summer dress to look elegant.
Now
