Who says you just need the perfect outfit to look great? Matching it with the right footwear is what makes you ready to steal the show. No matter how many pair of footwear you already have, you just can’t get enough of them. Also the variety of styles & colours to choose from definitely leaves you spoilt for choice.

The plethora of options, at times, makes it difficult to pick the right pair that could complete your look. And the right footwear is very important as it can either make or break a look. Going through a variety of heels, flats, pumps and wedges, here’s a quick list of footwear essentials, which are a must have in every woman’s wardrobe.

Getting the formal look right!

Since most of us spend maximum time in office, getting the formal look right is crucial. With that said, while men usually prefer loafers or lace-up shoes for their office attire, women have a variety to choose from and your choice of shoes completely depends on what outfit you wear. For example, if you are wearing Indian formals such as kurta-palazzos, suits or tunics, pair it up with flats, slip-ons and ring-toed sandals for that instant edgy look. But if you are a western formal person who loves to blaze in a blazer, with pencil skirts or tuxedos, complement it with monotone pumps, stilettoes, wedges or bellies. For a more corporate look go for some earthy tones or evergreens i.e. blues and blacks.

Go casual with tons of choices!

Unlike the formal attires, casuals allow better experimenting opportunities, as stringent corporate dress-up rules do not apply to it. Therefore, the wearer has the liberty to mix & match different types of shoes with any kind of clothing. Talking of the latest trends in shoes, artistic hand-painted shoes or neon tone shoes are in right now and can be teamed up with any casual attire like ripped denims with tees or shorts with a top. Alongside, shoes with laces and tassels, spikes and rivets, bows and strips, prints and embroideries are also trending in the fashion frat. While these are the latest darlings of the footwear fashion, the classic high-ankle boots and gladiators can never go out of fashion, and can be easily paired up with short or long skirts & dresses, bell bottoms and pyjamas. The comfort-first kind of fashionistas swear by the classic white, thick soled sneakers and sports shoes, pairing them up with almost anything from shorts, dresses, skirts to Indo-western outfits.

Get your party shoes on!

For the perfect party-wear look opt for some gaudy and glittery heels, wedges or slip-ons or the ones with a hint of metallic and glossy hues. Footwear like these can make the simplest of attire standout in the crowd and if it’s a more traditional attire, then couple it up with jutis studded with colourful stones and embroideries.

Investing in these wardrobe essentials will have your base covered and you won’t have to lose hair over ‘what shoes to wear’, whatever the occasion be. So, be bold and grab any pair from the above suggestions to warm up your look this season.
