Every fashion-conscious woman never has enough shoes and clothes in her closet. But combining these and putting together a harmonious outfit is sometimes difficult. With flat models there is a risk of visually shortening the body. On the other hand, wearing high heels in everyday life is a strain on your back and your health in general. With the right styling tips on which shoes go with which outfit, every look can be achieved.
Which shoes for which occasion?
There is no rule that unanimously prohibits wearing flat shoes with an elegant skirt or dress to a formal occasion. In addition, the shoes must harmonize with the clothing and make the figure appear visually proportional.The optimal appearanceIt is also possible with shoes without a leg-extending heel. Simple ballerina shoes or classic Oxfords with a deep neckline are a good choice here. The sole should be as thin as possible and not have a color that contrasts with the rest of the shoe material. The shape of the shoe toes also plays an important role and should ideally be pointed. Square or round shoe ends visually shorten the leg and if you don't have large feet, then this side effect is better to avoid. A pair of high-quality, classic, black shoes that have a slightly pointed end are always good to have because they immediately enhance even a simple outfit.ThisThe elegant ballerina shoes from Esprit, for example, can be perfectly combined with many skirts and dresses and give the outfit a slight feminine touch.
Which models for which dress?
To put together a sophisticated outfit, you should not only match the color of the shoes to the item of clothing, but also take into account your skin tone or the color of your tights when choosing. The nude-colored shoes (or beige shoes) are an all-rounder and the perfect companion to any dress, whether in blue, red, pink, black, white or colorfully patterned. Once you've found a comfortable pair in the right nude shade, you'll never have to ask yourself, 'Which shoes will go with it?' because you can actually pair them with anything. Skin-colored pumps and stilettos visually lengthen your legs and look elegant and classy at the same time. Nude shoes are always a good choice with jeans or chinos in the office or with a dress in the evening at a party. It's just important that you show some of your skin, so wear 7/8 length pants and non-shine tights in a color close to your skin.
ToSkinnyJeans
Skinny jeans are definitely the number 1 favorite of all women. They are always trendy, fit perfectly, are extremely comfortable and versatile to combine. Although this trouser cut emphasizes the figure, it is also suitable for women with wide hips. The top should be longer, more boyfriend-like, in a light color or patterned and wear a shorter jacket or blazer on top. This means the proportions appear harmonious again. When it comes to shoes, you can really combine any type of skinny jeans with them - whether flat, with heels or thick soles, sporty or elegant. White sneakers or flat ankle boots go best with a casual, leisure style. As you've probably already noticed, the latest (...ok not so new) trend is to combine skinny jeans with Adidas or Nike sneakers. We also really like this trend because this casual outfit creates a stylish everyday outfit.
WhichShoes with which pants
Which shoes go best with which pants depends primarily on the cut. Because of the extra few centimeters, high heels naturally fit extremely well with any trouser cut and stretch the silhouette. Slim women, whether short or tall, wear ballet flats and sneakers, basically flat shoes with any type of trousers. In theShoes collection from Esprit, you will find a large selection of ballerinas and sneakers that can be combined with any trousers. On the other hand, boots and over-the-knee boots break up the leg and are more suitable for tall women, or you can wear slim-fit trousers in the same color with them. With loose-fitting trousers with wide legs, such as Marlene trousers or boyfriends, you should definitely wear high shoes or wear the trousers at ankle length, or if possible roll up the trouser leg. In principle, 7/8 pants are flattering on the figure and can be combined very well with ankle boots, moccasins and sneakers.
Matching models to skirt
You can see women wearing skirts with flat shoes all over the runways and fashion blogs these days. Midi length, pencil skirts and minis are now combined with male lace-ups, ballet flats, sneakers, slip-ons or even with sneakers. The focus here is on comfort and certainly not on the slim appearance. That's just the problem - flat shoes with skirts make legs look shorter and feet look bigger. If you still prefer to wear flat shoes but don't want to miss out on a feminine look, then choose a skirt that is knee-length or a hand's width above the knee. A high waist and a fitted top are also figure-flattering. Avoid shoes that cover the ankle or even reach the widest part of the calves. Don't forget to match the color of the shoes to the color of the skirt or tights.
Breakthe rule
A list with non-binding advice on combining individual types of shoes will certainly help you. But if you are a fashion-conscious, experimental woman who likes to ignore the styling rules, then make a fashion statement and create your own look. Worn with the right attitude, every piece can become a trendy eye-catcher.
