Shoes are more than just fashion accessories — in many ways, they’re magical enough to transform your outfit and even your mood! Former consumer products expert Trevor Davis says that these fashion items help people navigate difficult times. In fact, he found that more women have actually been wearing high heels to match their joyful and uplifted mood.
The magical touch isn’t limited to high heels, though. Women have fallen in love with different footwear styles because of their timeless elegance. Here are a few classic, fun, and feminine options for women everywhere.
Classic Heels
Higher heels can elevate your mood— and your outfit— because they add poise and elegance to any look.
When it comes to fun heels, there’s no one that can beat the stepfather of fun shoes: Christian Louboutin. His platform designs have become recognisable to every woman since they were worn by Princess Caroline of Monaco, Madonna, and lots more high profile personalities. The classic black Louboutins with a peak of red sole can make any outfit look daring and elegant.
Kitten Heels
Though they are much smaller than platforms, kitten heels are a well-loved staple for fashion icons like Audrey Hepburn. Our previous post on the actress emphasised that each piece she wore embodied grace, elegance, and refinement. Thanks to Audrey, kitten heels have become a staple choice for women going to semi-formal and formal events.
Oscar de la Renta has made crowds fall in love with kitten mules since the 1980s, so you can expect that his shoe designs can make great investments. He’s been making kitten heels for decades now, so his shoes are guaranteed to make your outfits look very upmarket.
White Sneakers/Trainers
White sneakers are so versatile and comfortable that they’re quite difficult to resist! These shoes can be matched with athletic wear, dainty dresses, and everything in between. Favourites like the Comme des Garçons PLAY Converse, for example, are sleek, playful, yet feminine enough to catch the eye.
Today it is very easy for fashionistas to find the exact sneakers or trainers they want depending on where you are in the world, even if they are rare and hard to find. The online sneaker community is founded upon a shared love of helping others find the shoes they want. SoleSavy even go as far as to promote “sneaker karma” to encourage members to aid others. Like SoleSavy, many communities also have a dedicated women’s community for all people that identify as a woman.
Colourful Loafers
Just like sneakers, loafers were typically associated with menswear. However, this formal shoe style has made its way to women’s closets because it provides comfort while also adding more flair to one’s overall look.
Versace even featured colourful loafers in their spring/summer collection, proving that these shoes can be classy and fun at the same time. You’ll definitely be on trend by wearing Versace’s fun designs during the warmer months, but regardless of the season, these shoes are guaranteed to provide a beautiful pop of colour to your outfit.
Ballet Flats
Ballet shoes have been featured here on the blog quite often due to their unique, feminine elegance. Similarly, ballet flats embody that same elegance, while giving you more support and durability for casual wear.
Since women love wearing ballet flats for different occasions, these shoe styles are easy to find everywhere. If you want a more durable and stylish pair, you can go for the Kate Moss-approved Repetto flats. However, you can easily find comfortable yet dainty pairs in local shops and department stores.
You can add comfort, style, and confidence to any outfit through these five classic shoe designs. If you want to know how to add more magical touches to your everyday life, check out the rest of the posts On The Blog for more on beauty, fashion, ballet, and art.♡
