Hey everyone!
Today we're talking about SHOES!
Let's get to it:
- Styles of shoes
There are tons of different styles of shoes! Pick out the one that's best for you. If you want cute shoes, but don't like the whole girly girl approach, go for vans or converse. If you DO like girly stuff, try wedges, ballet flats, or anything with a bold design!
- Colours
Shoes are a GREAT way to spice up an outfit. I love the bright pink polkadotted ones I have in the picture above. I wear them with a solid colour top and jeans. You can get away with anything on your feet as long as you don't wear anything else that is very patterned.
It's also a good idea to have at least two pairs of practical shoes. The brown pair above are both extremely comfortable and extremely trendy. Plus, they go with absolutely everything. Get at least one pair of neutral shoes if you can.
- Good Quality shoes
It's VERY VERY VERY important to have shoes of good quality. If you can see they are starting to wear down in some places when you get them, it's not a good sign. Shoes with the shiny plastic covering look cute, but get scratches and marks on them so much easier.
Also, make sure that your shoe has a great sole to it. If you get the kind of flat that you pull onto your foot like slippers with elastic all around it, (I have a black polka dotted pair like this) make sure your heel does not hang over the edge, or else you will quickly wear a hole through it.
- Bargains
If you're a size 5 or 6 or even 6/12 ladies you can often fit into the KIDS SECTION! (I do.) you can find extremely cute flats for less than half the price of the ladies shoes. Just make sure it doesn't have dora the Explorer on the front. That would be kinda mortifying.
Shop for the next year. During fall, go to shoe stores and check out all the neat sales! I found a cute pair of sandals at Winners, a liquidations store, from Roxy (the white shoes in the picture) for FIVE DOLLARS. they were originally sold for FORTY. That's a deal!
So yeah! Have fun shoe shopping!
