9 Classic Types of Footwear Every Woman Needs in Her Closet
Mary Odunuga
There is nothing wrong with having a huge closet filled with shoes, but these shoes eventually get given out as a gift, or get sold because sometimes too many options make it a hard task to make a choice. On this note, here we are to tell you about 9 essential shoes you need in your closet to keep you shining and feeling confident. Once you pick these nine, the others can go, be assured.
1. High-heeled pumps: These are shoes that are the easiest to reach out to. They are classics whether in black, nude, or in other appealing colours. They work with almost any outfit and for almost any event. Just make sure you have the black, nude and other colours that will work with most of the outfits you have.
2. Statement shoes: Don’t we ALWAYS love to make a statement every time we go into a gathering or an event? That is why you need statement shoes that say it all. These shoes just shut ’em up as you walk in because they project confidence and can elevate even the unassuming outfits. When choosing your statement shoes, look for prints, architectural heels, shoes with different textures and unexpected colour clashes.
3. Wedges: Wedges are a comfortable way to give you height, and they work with all sort of casual outfits such as wide-leg trousers, jeans and long or short casual dresses.
4. Sneakers: At this point, you blow ’em away with those classic sneakers with a short dress or tight pants. Apart from them being a pair of stylish casual shoes, they can serve as a good support for your arches, help prevent injuries, and are a great comfort for your feet if you have to walk for long periods of time.
5. Flats: They are such a relief. We know! That is why you need them in your closet. They are also the most versatile pair of shoes you can own. They are great for work and the weekend, travelling, shopping, hanging out and just about anywhere you go. You can never have too many flats, but stick to a few basic colours like black patent, leopard print, brown, metallic and a fun poppy colour.
6. Ankle boots: Tall boots will be out of place for our kind of weather, but an ankle boot will serve as a perfect option to give you the look of a classic boot, and is a great shoe for leggings and skinny jeans.
7.Espadrilles: Espadrilles are easy to slip on, chic and fashionable. Go for styles that are either flat, or add some height in wedges. Either way, espadrilles are a definite must-have for a bright and fun collection of shoes.
8. Gold flat sandals: Gold flat sandals are a definite ‘got to wear’ for activity outings, and are a great accessory for your feet. They are comfortable and look great on the feet.
9. Fun heels: You know those shoes that make you feel fun and alive? They may not be versatile, but they make you feel good and happy when you put them on.
