Have you ever had the experience of getting all dressed up, everything nicely color coordinated, everything neatly put together and your looking like a million dollars? Then when it comes time to find just the right shoe for your well-coordinated, well put together ensemble that you arrive at the shocking conclusion that you have a hundred pairs of shoes and none of them are working for you! Well instead of spending more money purchasing more shoes that you possibly cannot use, perhaps you might want to consider another alternative.
You might be surprised to know that with just for basic pairs of shoes you can pretty much cover any shoe need no matter what you pull from your current wardrobe. Sounds crazy but it's true! With just four basic pairs of shoes you can pretty much cover all of your wardrobe needs.
The first pair of shoes you would want to consider purchasing for yourself would be a comfortable pair of everyday shoes. There are many great choices to choose from in a variety of prices, one of which will be perfect for your needs at this time. The shoes should be stylish enough so that you have the ability to wear them to work or just getting around town. You also want to make certain that the shoes are fairly comfortable for your feet because again these are going to be some of your primary shoes.
The next type of shoe that you might want to consider would be something more conducive to a summer style. They should be something like a very light casual lace up shoe, almost like a sandal if you will. You want to make certain that the shoe looks sophisticated enough for you so that you could actually wear it in a dressier situation if need be. You also want to make certain that the shoes are versatile enough that you can also wear them on a casual summer afternoon as well.
For those of you than live in a colder climate a great pair of leather boots will take you a long way in your fashion quest. A great pair of tall leather boots look really hot with a good pair of jeans, all while the same time keeping you warm dry and relatively safe on the icy streets that you may encounter from time to time in bad weather. Now fortunately for you there is a wide world of styles and options for you in this particular area of footwear. Make sure to take your time and do your homework so that you can get a perfect pair of winter boots to carry you through cold snowy days in style.
Next, no wardrobe would be complete without a good and comfortable pair of athletic shoes to complete a shoe collection. Everyone needs a pair of athletic shoes, whether they are used for working out or for running, or for just walking around town you got to have athletic shoes if for nothing more than to come in a comfortable pair of kakis or jeans and sweats and just go around town. In my opinion athletic shoes are the ultimate shoes; they have an almost universal appeal when it comes to their versatility for which you can wear them with and where you can wear them with on any given occasion.
Now when you're in the process of restructuring your shoes selection so that you give yourself at least for go-to shoes to choose from, you want to make certain that you purchase your shoes in neutral colors. Colors that you can utilize with almost any item in your wardrobe whether be a jacket, a skirt, a shirt or a cap. And don't be bashful, it's OK for you to occasionally throw a splash of vibrant reds or greens or orange in with your ensemble along with your more quietly conservative footwear. Again this footwear should color queued so that it can coordinate with almost your entire wardrobe if need be. So it's OK to be a little bold and daring when it comes to putting together the rest of your ensemble, because your go-to shoes will always quietly bring the ensemble in alignment with your sense of good taste and style.
