Shoes That Go With Everything

As every woman knows, finding essential shoes that go with everything is the aim of every shopping trip. Whether it’s a pair of comfy heels for work and nights out or a pair of ankle boots that look great with jeans, dresses or skirts.

What Is A Capsule Shoe Wardrobe?

A very popular trend of the last few years has been how to create a capsule wardrobe – and shoes are a very important part of that. A capsule wardrobe consists of around 15-20 items that can be worn together in various ensembles to create different outfits and versatility is the key. Shoes can be neutral colours so that they can easily be worn in different ways, or a bright pop of colour for contrast with muted or monochrome tones.

Opt for classic colours, shapes and styles so that you can get the most wear out of your staple footwear. Leather uppers are easiest to look after and can last much longer than some man-made materials when properly looked after. Comfort and fitting are also vital to the success of your shoe shopping as, quite simply, you will not wear shoes that are killing your feet.

Essential Shoes That Go With Everything

Here are our recommendations for must-have shoes for your capsule wardrobe.
