Shoes deserve your attention, too
Shoe diversity by KeturaP featuring open toe pumpsS
Some women are more adventurous with their clothes than with their shoes — they realize the don’t want only black dresses, pants and T-shirts, but they don’t quite see that the same principle applies to their shoes, too.
My advice for this type of woman is to start slowly. You don’t want to shock your system. Consider a nude heel, the shoe of the moment. There are variations at all price points and heel heights. They look fresh and modern with almost everything. The other shoes to have are some sort of animal-textured heel or ballet flat. They’ll go with almost everything, too — and add immediate interest to your go-to basics. (Just don’t be afraid to mix them with other prints, too.)
From there, you can just go crazy — a colored ballet flat, metallic sandals, colored strappy heels. Go crazy!
What’s your most adventurous shoe, and how do you wear it? Leave me a comment and let me know — I want to hear about it!
