A big wardrobe mistake women can make is in the clothing they overlook and underestimate as fashion items. And one area that is often overlooked is womens shoes.
I can't begin to imagine why! There are dozens of styles of womens shoes available! Some women are addicted (commonly called "shoe junkies") enough to have a closet full of shoes. Others, however, focus only on the comfortable basics. While neither extreme is better or worse than the other, there is a happy medium. Every woman must own at least one pair of each different style of womens shoes.
Sandals - This can include flip flops and comfortable sandals. You can own as many pair of sandals as you want, as long as you extend to your shoe wardrobe to other styles as well.
Sneakers - Sneakers are another essential form of womens shoes, because they are comfortable for walking and can be worn in almost any weather. Every woman should own a couple pair of sneakers.
Work Shoes -In most cases, sneakers can also be used as work shoes but that depends on where you work and what you do. If separate work shoes are needed, this would be a comfortable shoe style that fits the guidelines set forth by your place of employment.
Boots - You can own a pair of rain boots, a pair of knee high platform boots, and/or a pair of hiking boots. Choose shoes that fit your lifestyle, and make sure have at least one pair of boots available in your closet.
Heels - If you are reading this article and have given yourself a pat on the back, stop right there!
If you own all of the above and a pair of heels... you are depriving yourself!
Dressy shoes are usually the nickname given to a pair of heels owned by a woman who neglects her feet. These can be somewhat dressy (for dinner with the in-laws) but boring.
The most important shoe for any woman to own is a pair of ultra sexy shoes!
Stiletto heels are a must have for any wardrobe.
Sure, stiletto shoes may sound scary... you may be thinking "but I never wear anything that would go with stiletto shoes!"
On the contrary, stiletto shoes are your secret weapon-a must have for your wardrobe that can dress up any, yes-any outfit.
To prove this point about the power of sexy shoes, try replacing your flip flops, sandals, or sneakers with a sexy pair of shoes (like stilettos) and see how incredible you look in your favorite pair of comfortable jeans and t-shirt or tank top.
You will see at this point that sexy shoes can make or break an outfit.
The trick to walking in stiletto heels is to walk on the balls of your feet. Practice walking this way without shoes on to see how simple and comfortable it really can be to walk in stiletto heels. Once you do put the shoes on, it is important to not use your heels as you walk. If stiletto shoes are just too uncomfortable for you, you might want to try meeting in the middle with a really cute pair of platform shoes.
Platform shoes are another form of high heel that works for women who aren't comfortable walking in stiletto shoes. These are also smart alternatives to sneakers or sandals with a comfortable outfit (though it is not advised to partner sexy shoes with sweatpants...) when you plan on doing a bit of walking that day. Platform shoes are sexy, without sacrificing comfort.
But nothing compares to a pair of dramatic stilettos... sexy shoes that have the power to turn "blah" into "wow!" with little effort.
