If you wear a nice pair of shoes, you will feel much better in your body and in your head. You will feel ready to take a big bite out of your day. Have you ever tried? Take the test! How do you feel when you start your day with a nice pair of pumps or ankle boots on your feet? And on the contrary, how is your state of mind when you spend your day in slippers? The answer is easy, shoes are an asset of charm and good humor  ; and as I like to repeat this famous quote: ‘ Give a woman the right pair of shoes and she can conquer the world’ .

Tip 1: Make sure you choose the right pair of shoes

We often think we know our shoe size, but this is not always the case. Elegance also means comfort to walk well in your shoes , with support, and to wear them well for several hours. Your gait and your appearance will be all the more assured. To know your shoe size, you must know how to try on your coveted pair of shoes . To do this, take the time to walk a few minutes with your shoes in the store to feel if you are comfortable; take the time to ask the salesperson questions, they should normally be happy to answer them: is this pair comfortable? Do you have good feedback from your customers? Are they successful? So many questions that will allow you to evaluate your potential future purchase.

Tip 2: Go for quality, not quantity

Before you go shopping, make a list to stick to what you need. This will prevent you from ending up with several pairs that are too similar in your shoe closet. What would you do with the umpteenth pair of ballet flats that you only wear part of the year anyway!

A foolproof tip that we often forget: deciphering the little labels . We tear them off once we get home before even looking at them. However, they give us all the information we need to know if your pair of shoes is of good quality. To know how to decipher these labels for sure, I refer you to this article which will teach you how to do it quickly by having the right information.

Tip 3: Master walking in high heels

These famous high heels make us fantasize, they shape our legs and our silhouette, make our look so feminine and elegant . It is therefore a question of mastering your look in their company, to avoid this penguin or robot gait that you have certainly already observed in the street with dread. In terms of elegance, it is zero!

To master walking in high heels, practice at home at your ease . Look straight ahead, breathe, swing your hips, spread your feet slightly but not too much, stand up straight. You will see that by dint of training, your gait will be more and more assured. You will feel more comfortable, more confident and better in your favorite pumps.

Tip 4: Make the right combinations with your clothes

Your style and elegance will also come from the right combinations between your outfits and your shoes . Not only depending on the times of your day or the context, but especially depending on the choice of your clothes. Some examples so that you understand:

Prefer to wear your low boots with slim jeans, 7/8 jeans or rolled-up jeans, they will be much better highlighted and you will gain in style.

Tip 5: Give your shoes the space they deserve

In other words, make sure they are clearly visible  ! It’s simple, but it will make a difference to your overall appearance in terms of elegance. So remember to never hide your shoes under jeans that are too long or too wide. And if you do, it’s for a very specific reason. For example, flared jeans make perfect sense when worn long on your leg to give a little vintage look to your outfit and make your legs look longer.

Tip 6: Take care of your shoes over time

There is nothing worse than wearing dirty, damaged, poorly maintained shoes. Elegance and style mean impeccable shoes . To find out how to properly clean your shoes and how to properly maintain them on a daily basis, I refer you to my article on ‘how to properly clean your shoes to keep them longer’ . It is full of good advice so that you know how to maintain any material: smooth leather, suede, nubuck, etc. You will see that these are small routines to install that will not take you much time but will do a lot of good to your shoes and therefore to your feet. Remember, they are the ones who anchor you in your reality and who carry you every day to be in action.

Tip 7: Think about how your shoes are at the heart of your style

They bring you much more than you could imagine. As I said at the beginning of this article, we women have a very special relationship with our shoes. And if this is not yet the case, it is never too late to start loving them because they will bring you well-being, confidence, femininity and style on a daily basis . The shoe dresses your foot which anchors you in the earth and thus in your life. Put on a pretty pair of shoes in the morning and you will be in a good mood, ready to move mountains . Take the test tomorrow!
