Girls love shoes, there is no doubt, and there are at least four types of shoes that no girl should be without. Of course the more the merrier always rings true, and the fact of the matter is a shoe is not just a shoe. It is a reflection of the personal style of the wearer, and it can make or break a mood in more ways than one. Having these four styles available will help ensure this does not happen.
The Neutral Pump
Everyone should have a basic pump in a neutral shade, whether it be black, brown, tan, gray, or taupe. Taupe works the best as it can work with shades of black and brown as well as anything else, but at the very least one pair in a neutral color that works with most of the contents of your closet is needed.
The pump is possibly the most versatile shoe in the world; it can go with any outfit from dresses and skirts to slacks and jeans with unimaginable ease, and it works great in every season. It is truly timeless and is definitely a shoe must.
The Boot
While the color and style are personal preferences, a tall neutral style will be the most versatile. Whether flats or heels, a tall boot will work with pants and skirts, and a neutral shade will work with most outfits. However, there is no shame in having a little fun with the color, and design choice is wide open. The most important thing is that there is be a boot available for wear at a moment’s notice in the fall and winter.
The Strappy Sandal
Most women have more than one style of sandal in their closet, but even if you are not a big fan, every woman should have at least one pair of strappy sandals on stand by. Style and heel height is up to personal preference and in this case color is too.
There are so many multi-colored varieties that it is possible for a really fun pair to work great with a number of clothing options. Strappy sandals are the boots of spring and summer time, and they work equally well with casual and dressier styles as well as skirts and pants. Go from a dress to jeans easily and never change shoes or lose style points.
The Athletic Shoe
There comes a time when all feet just need a break, and that is what the athletic shoe is. It is a big comfy nap for your foot. Find the perfect pair and keep them handy for workouts or for just hanging out when putting in the effort is just too much effort.
