Shoes can either make or break an outfit. They often tie a look together. However, when it comes to shoes, it’s more about quality than quantity. Having a good collection of shoes that can work with any outfit is key to having a great wardrobe. Here are 6 times of shoes that every girl needs for all the occasions that life throws at her.
This is a must-have for casual days. Everyone needs a basic pair of sneakers that are comfortable and great for long days on your feet. This is a great option for days of running errands, going to class or just walking around town. The key is to make sure they are comfortable, so your feet don’t end up hurting. You can choose between slip-on options or lace-up sneakers. Some of my favorite brands for everyday sneakers are Converse, Vans, Adidas, and Puma. I would recommend buying a neutral color, so these shoes can match with any outfit you put together. My favorite pair of comfortable sneakers are the Adidas Originals Campus in black and white. They are a suede material and feature the company’s three stripe detail on the sides of the shoe. These shoes go well with shorts, jeans, and leggings. My favorite casual outfit consists of a T-shirt, jeans and these shoes.

Booties are my go-to Fall and Winter shoe option. They tie together almost any outfit and dress it up just a little. I love pairing booties with dresses, sweaters and jeans, and so many more outfits. You can choose between flat booties or ones with a heel. If you plan to wear these on a regular day to day basis, I would recommend the flat option. However, if you want to save these just for going out, you can opt for a heel, which makes them even dressier. Department stores that carry multiple shoe brands are your best bet for finding the perfect pair of booties. You can also often find great affordable options at stores like TJ Maxx, Nordstrom Rack, Marshalls, and Ross. Target also commonly has cute and trendy options at affordable prices. My favorite pair is the Sam Edelman Packer Booties, which I found at Nordstrom Rack. They are black suede and have a dark brown heel, so they’ll match almost any outfit. They have a small 1.25″ heel, so they are still suitable for everyday wear.

These are a must-have for nights out during colder seasons. These boots can dress up any outfit, while your feet still stay warm. They look so cute with dresses, skirts, or even just jeans. Just like for booties, you can easily find options with or without a heel. I love my pair of Steve Madden Eagerly Over-The-Knee Block Heels Boots. They come in both taupe and black, but you can’t go wrong with either color. They have a 2″ heel, but the brand also offers a pair with no heel.

This is my favorite shoe option for warmer weather. I love open toe heels and you can’t go wrong with a classic black pair with an ankle strap. They will go with any fancier dress, skirt, romper or even just a top and jeans. This is the perfect shoe to help you dress up an outfit for a night out. I found an affordable option at Target from their brand A New Day. They are available in black, pink and white.

Sandals are a must for Spring and Summer. I recommend finding a nice pair with an ankle strap, so they are a little dressier than your basic pair of flip flops. Sandals with an ankle strap can be dressed up or down. They’re a great option when you want to be comfortable and don’t want to be in heels. They are acceptable to wear almost anywhere during hotter weather. Steve Madden’s Dina Leather Banded Sandals are a great option. They come in both black and tan leather.

These are a must for any girls who enjoy being active or just need a comfortable shoe option for daily wear. Having one good pair of workout shoes is essential. They can be used for indoor and outdoor workouts. I get a ton of use out of my running shoes. I wear them in the gym, on outdoor runs, hikes and even just to run errands sometimes. I recommend checking out brands like Nike, Adidas, Puma, and New Balance. It is key to find a pair that is comfortable for you because you will be doing a lot of physical activity in these shoes. My favorite pair of workout shoes have to be the Adidas Swift Run Shoes. They are extremely comfortable and also stylish. I often wear them to go to school or just run errands because they are so cute. Adidas also offers them in several colors, such as black, green, light pink, white and pink and black leopard print. They can be found for $85 on the website and are a great investment that guarantees comfort.
