I confess, I am slowly turning into Imelda Marcos. I have amassed 20 pairs of shoes and in reality, I have a weakness for bags too! But if you’re overwhelmed with which pairs you should get, I’m listing the 5 shoes that are absolutely essential to your wardrobe.

The Thong Sandal:

These are a stylish alternative to flip flops. Thong sandals can be paired with jeans, skirts and leggings for a casual day out. It’s the perfect excuse to show off a bright pedi!

The Black Strappy Sandals:

Sometimes outfits can seem too heavy or frou-frou, black strappy sandals work wonderfully against these ensembles.

The Ballet Flats:

Who doesn’t love ballet flats? You can wear them dressed down with a casual ensemble or even with formal wear!

Nude Pumps:

Have short legs? Pick nude heels to make them appear to endless. Ensure that they’re pointy so that your feet look longer too.

Wedge Heels

Want the height but minimum pain? Wedges are the answer! They are super comfortable and pair perfectly with jeans, maxi-dresses and even rompers.
