“A woman can carry a bag, but it’s the shoes that carries the woman.” – Christian Louboutin
Whether we realise it or not, our shoes speak volumes about who we are. So what do your shoes say about you? And what do they say about your outfits? What personality style do you prefer throughout your wardrobe & does your shoe wardrobe suit all aspects of your clothing?
Let’s consider some of the different personality styles & what those shoes would reflect…
Relaxed Style – This type of shoe is all about practicality and understatement. Heels are usually low, stacked, or flat, and you’ll often see square, wide, or softly curved toe boxes. The relaxed personality gravitates toward non-shiny leathers, suede, or canvas, favouring simple designs in neutral or natural tones.
Dramatic Style – For the dramatic personality, shoes are all about making a statement. Comfort takes a back seat to bold, upscale, attention-grabbing designs. Think shiny stilettos with sharp pointy toes, striking animal prints, high-contrast patterns, & vivid, bright colours – all of which absolutely scream dramatic style.
Creative Style – Think unique, unexpected design details you don’t see every day. Funky, quirky, retro, and artistic all capture the creative style perfectly – along with a love for unusual colour combinations and interesting heel shapes that stand out from the crowd.
Feminine Style – When it comes to shoes for you. You’ll have a wide range of styles, from flat ballet slippers to medium-height court shoes, in a variety of colours to match every outfit – plus different trims for added interest. Most of your shoes will be quality leather, not too shiny and never chunky, keeping everything refined and versatile.
Classic Style – Shoes for the classic personality are timeless, elegant, and understated. Think simple, well-structured designs in quality leather with minimal detailing. Medium-height heels softly rounded or almond-shaped toes, and neutral colours like black, navy, or nude are favourites. These styles effortlessly complement a polished wardrobe and never go out of fashion, making them a reliable go-to for work and everyday sophistication.
