Welcome back to The Code of Style, and this style feature about “Do You Have All Of These Must-Have Pairs Of Shoes”?

Most women will agree: one of the most important elements of your style is your shoe game. Shoes are one of the defining accessories of any outfit and can play a huge range of roles, whether they’re the type of versatile footwear that you will wear day after day, or if they’re that special pair that you only bring out when you really want to make a big impression. Here, we’re going to look at some of the must-have pairs of shoes you should ensure that you have in your arsenal.

Do You Have All Of These Must-Have Pairs Of Shoes?

Sneakers are the comfy-go tos

To begin with, we’ll look at your most basic pair of shoes, the ones that you’re likely to get on when you’re in a rush and looking to get out of the door. Aside from being the most convenient option, sneakers are by far the most versatile when it comes to pairing them with casual outfits. Fashionable sneakers can be on the expensive side and, if you’re using them for running, then you need to make sure that you pick out those that offer great support, too. However, a good pair of sneakers should also last you a long time and have plenty of use.

Heels for when you need that classy look

A good pair of heels is always going to be one of the most effective tools in your arsenal for when you want to class up a day or want to head out for a night on the town. Make sure that you have different heels for different occasions, however, as you might want to check these out when you’re looking for a pair of classy stilettos to look your best on a date, but you might want something that’s a little more manageable to wear throughout the day if you’re headed to a wedding or the like. At least a dark pair and a light pair of heels should go well with most outfits, too.

Flats for when you want that middle ground

If sneakers are great for their casual versatility and the convenience of wearing them and heels are the best shoes for classing up an outfit and looking on the more sophisticated side, then flats do a great job as a middle ground. They work well with everything from professional wear to business casual, Of course, you can get flats that fit all kinds of outfits, as well, using different colors and prints to make sure that you stay away from the blander side when you’re looking to make an impression. Ballet flats have been trending, in particular, lately, as well.

Boots for classing up your winter look

One of the most important aspects of choosing a pair of boots to wear is to make sure that they’re able to support you and keep you safe given the weather conditions. However, in most cases, boots are worn because it’s getting chilly outside and because they’re a good fit for your winter look. Of course, there are plenty of boot trends to keep up with, as well, such as the linked ankle boots that have much of the practicality of the full boot but a cute, minimalistic silhouette that is never going to look too bulky on you. Of course, a good pair of long boots can look really great with a coat, as well, so don’t be afraid to go on the bigger side.

Sandals for when the sun is high

Aside from being an essential component of your beach outfit, sandals work great in the summer, in general. We like to wear lighter outfits when the sun is out and maybe show a little more skin and sandals can make the look seem much more natural, while also being great for the more casual looks that are all over the place when the weather is fine. You just mainly want to make sure that you’re opting for high-quality materials, whether they are leather or made of sturdy synthetic materials, as you don’t want sandals that are going to start falling apart while you’re walking around town.

With the help of the tips above, you can ensure that you have all the shoes you need to fit many occasions. Of course, if you’re a real shoe lover, there’s a very good chance that you’re going to have more than one of some of the categories mentioned above here. So long as you make sure that you have the shoe game to match the event, however, you should do just fine.
