How often have you caught yourself window shopping, only to stop and stare at a gorgeous pair of shoes you probably shouldn’t buy? Let’s be honest, you may not need them because you’ve already got way too many, and not enough reason to wear them. But, let’s not be too hasty. After all, there’s no such thing as too many pairs of shoes. However, instead of buying a pair just because they’re stunning, you could look at two important aspects—will you really wear them, and is it money you want to spend?
While it’s perfectly okay to indulge, live a little, and splurge on yourself, you cannot deny that shoes are a wardrobe must-have, and every woman should have a few in her closet. But, there’s no arguing with hard facts—there are certain shoes that women need.
If you must make that shopping trip, and shoes are on your list, make sure you cover at least one of these basics. Besides, who doesn’t want her Cinderella moment?
Classic Black Pumps
You can’t go wrong with a pair of classic black shoes. Whether it is a peep-toe style, stilettoes, or the style you most prefer, a pair of black heels is a must-have for every closet. They pair well with trousers, dresses, and work for every occasion. And you will need them. You could choose different materials, and even opt for these in a dull shimmer. The possibilities are endless when it comes to black heels. You can thank us later!
Nude Pumps
Just like the classic black heels, nude pumps are a must-have in every woman’s closet. They work great for the office, and even a night out with the girls. The best part about a nude pair of heels is that it can upgrade an otherwise casual summer dress to something suitable for brunch, or an important event like meeting your boy’s parents. Just be sure to pick a shade that complements your skin tone.
Flats
Let’s be honest, everyone needs a comfortable pair of shoes that aren’t just functional, but stylish too. Besides, if you’re at the office and need to scuttle between meetings or departments, you don’t want to do that in heels. Which is why, flats make for a practical, and super stylish alternative. They’re available in a variety of styles—ballet, pointed-toe, mules, espadrilles, and oxfords. You’ll be spoilt for choice, and you don’t need to stop at just one.
Flat Sandals
Like it or not, this is a year-round staple that’s a spring-summer must-have for every woman. While they’re definitely part of your casual outfit, the perfect pair of sandals can be paired with cute summer dresses, shorts, and almost anything that says light and airy. In fact, they come in a variety of shades that can work with most outfits. From nude, tan, taupe, or brown, there’s much to choose from. However, make sure you pick a pair for more casual everyday chores, as well as one formal pair for when you want to be dressed comfortably, but appropriately.
White Sneakers
Yes, this definitely makes the cut because sneakers have been on-trend, and we believe that it’s something that’s timeless. You can pair it with jeans, a casual shift dress, and even with smart casuals—sneakers just work. And best wardrobe staple every woman should have is a comfortable pair of white kicks. Besides, if loud or out-there is what you choose when you put on that outfit, white sneakers is the right touch to balance things out.
