Smart girls knows how to build their wardrobe with timeless stables. I am building a series for all of you ladies on how to build a great wardrobe. There noway better to start this other than shoes. Shoes are women's first love, they just makes us feel happy. While sometimes our shoes can cost more than the outfit itself, it's wise to choose carefully. Before running around buying the latest craze, we need to think about what we need to have to go with our daily life and occasion events. I am putting 5 different shoes for each style from different brands, just because everyone can see their style. Brands are low to high end and everything in between.
Ballerina Black Flats
Seriously Ballerina Flats come in handy all the time. Black ballerina are amazing cause they go with practically everything and everywhere. I mean you can easily wear a pair of black ballerinas to work then just go partying with the same pair of shoes. Any style would fit, personally I have like 3 black ballerinas and I am still buying more. A little embellishment here or a big print there cause personalize your everyday shoes.
Ballerina Brown or Neutral Flats
Since Ballerinas are so slimming to the feet also if you happen to have spinal cord problems like me and ballerinas are super safe for you, you're going to need more than one. The second best thing is brown or neutral colored ballerina. If you live in a cleaner country or you don't go out of your car most of the time then neutral would be great. They are more of casual but some of them will surprise you.
Black Pumps
Neutral Pumps
Whenever you have like a BAM outfit on a pair of Neutral pumps will give the outfit the stage to shine and still your feet will be chic. Crazy thing that if you're going for an all white expensive look, neutral pumps will make it look even more expensive and chic. White heels gives me a bad 80's feeling so No. Again parent leather is cool, however I am not a patent girl especially when it comes to stables.
Evening Shoes
Personally I am an opera girl more than a clubbing girl, back in the days when I used to hit the clubs on regular bases I would start the night with heels and then I would die so I would take them off and run around with bare feet. I was partying with some dutch girls one day and they were wearing flats so that was my thing. Now we live in the wedding season all year long and you need a good Evening shoes to relay on.
Black Knee High Boots
The first question would be, heels or flats? I go with flats cause tall boots for me are the ballerinas of the winter, I wear them all the time especially the black ones. If you want a more dressy look, like with a skirt or jeans and a blazer, then go with heels. I don't recommend patent leather, cause you might end up looking like a stripper. Suede or Leather depends on how much maintenance you are welling to give your boots.
Brown Knee High Boots
Canvas Sneakers
Oh my god, whether it's running errands, shopping, family day or a day with your kids, canvas sneakers are life savers. They are super comfy, you can never go wrong with them and you won't get any blisters after wearing them. I would rebel and wear them with a skirt just to mismatch the look, they helped me in my first days of walking after my spine problems. TIP: if you're pregnant they are the best seriously -I hear-.
Flip Flops

They are more of casual but some of them will surprise you.
Black Pumps
Any girl needs a pair of formal yet sexy pair of shoes, black pumps are the ones. From a business meeting to a date, black pumps can back you up so keep a pair in your car. Obviously you need to consider your height and your heel walking capability to settle on the length of the heel. Personally my go to black pumps are matte leather 6 cm heel, however if you are one of these people who can pull off 12 cm patent heels at work then go for it.
Whenever you have like a BAM outfit on a pair of Neutral pumps will give the outfit the stage to shine and still your feet will be chic. Crazy thing that if you're going for an all white expensive look, neutral pumps will make it look even more expensive and chic. White heels gives me a bad 80's feeling so No. Again parent leather is cool, however I am not a patent girl especially when it comes to stables.

Suede or Leather depends on how much maintenance you are welling to give your boots.
Brown Knee High Boots
Brown gives more options of course for every girl out there. Knee high brown boots are like the life saving backups. If you're a fan of patent leather then you get something like the Marc Jacobs one here, it has a little bit of shine, but still it's not a strippers boots. I would prefer leather over suede cause I am sort of lazy and I wouldn't want my boots to be ruined.
Black Booties
Booties usually are Ankle boots, however they do range around the ankle to under the mid calf area. They are the real deal. The black booties seriously don't even look like they come from the same species, cause some can choose this fancy looking spiky heeld sued short ALDO booties and so would go with just studded flat matte leather booties, either ways make sure you get one.
Brown Booties
Since booties are versatile in style -that actually rhymed lol-, having 2 colors in two different styles would be a great thing. If you went dressy with the first one you can just get the brown booties studded or combat booties, it will help in alternating your outfits. You can wear then starting from fall and you wouldn't look like over done, it will be a great transition from summer to fall.
Wedges Sandals
A heel without the pain, a pump up for your height without the craze. Wedges sandals are really cool for the summer, you can just wear them during a BBQ or on the beach or anywhere. The great thing about it is that you've got a the little glam and confidence going on without looking too formal or too dressed up. Tip: great if you're going to anything in a garden, you won't be picking holes in the ground and you won't worry about getting stuck in the mud.
Neutral Flat Sandals
Amazing with capris or long hippie dresses, they are super comfortable and give some kinda hippie/ gypsy look to the outfit. In flat sandals Neutral color goes with everything, cause you are usually wearing them with something super casual and they make it more hip. Tip: If you have bigger feet like me, stay away from the thong cause it makes your feet look more exposed and hence bigger.
Black Flat Sandals
Black sandals are great cause you can have studded or embellished ones and have a great summer night out look with your outfit OR you can go with simple and just wear them in the morning. I do wear them to work, however I work in a not very formal place. Black just adds a little bit of class to the concept of casual flat sandals.
Oh my god, whether it's running errands, shopping, family day or a day with your kids, canvas sneakers are life savers.

Flip Flops
Weather it's your gym shower, the beach, a pool BBQ, or your house; you'll always need a pair of practical flip flops. Some sports brands provide flip flops with more comfortable sole like the Adidas ones up there and some brands are just girlie and glamorous. Choose your style based on your daily need. I love black ones cause they just go with everything.
Athletic Sneakers
Ladies, I have explained the different types of Athletic sneakers in my Fitness Chic post. Never get on a stationary bike or a treadmill with flip flops or canvas sneakers, tried it and FAILED. There is a wide range of athletic sneakers out there, if you play a certain sports then choose it's specified sneakers. Running shoes are great cause you can run or job or speed walk with them and if you work out wearing them it will be safe as well.
