Types and names of flat shoes without heels

BOOTS

I can't imagine how to do without shoes without heels in the fall and winter time! You can comfortably run in them on business, in the garden, school, to work, driving, on your own, in skirts, trousers, jeans and any outerwear, do 1000 things, climb into snowdrifts and accidentally step into puddles, keep up everywhere and stay stylish. Simple lace-up boots. Without rhinestones, thorns and additional decor, they are suitable for everything, without exception!

And such brutal shoes, sometimes, like no other shoes, are able to emphasize our femininity, fragility and grace. , boyfriend jeans, short skirts, shorts - a small part of what these shoes can be worn with. The only style in which, in my opinion, it is not very appropriate to experiment with such rocker boots is. Otherwise, experiment!

CHELSEA

These ankle boots with a very small heel are perhaps the most universal option for the autumn-spring period.

Go beyond skinny jeans and pipe trousers. Dresses, maxi skirts, leggings and colored tights also go well with these flats!

OXFORDES, BROGIES AND DERBIES

Boots and flat shoes came to us from the men's wardrobe, but we are no less graceful and graceful in them than in stiletto heels.

I recommend walking such boots with straight trousers (to create spectacular image dandy), skinny pants, any kind of jeans, and even dresses and skirts. Complete your look with either a shirt, textured loose-fitting sweaters, T-shirts and jackets, leather jackets and cardigans, coats straight cut or oversize.

LOAFERS

Another thing borrowed from the men's wardrobe, which so harmoniously blended into the women's, as if it had always been there.

MULE

The last few seasons, flat mules have won the hearts of notorious fashionistas. Mules look like mules without a backdrop. And everything is combined in the same way - with anything.

BALLET SHOES

Ballet shoes beige colour suitable for any clothes! Summer beige is the most versatile shade, including making your legs look slimmer and longer.

For daily walks, ballerinas can be safely combined with tapered 7/8 length trousers, shorts,. Of course, dresses and skirts of any length will also come in handy. From above you can throw short jacket, trench coat or jacket.

BOOTS

The most familiar footwear for most of us for the cold season is boots.

Tip: if you want to buy universal boots for the season, so that they are combined with any clothes in the wardrobe, be it office dress or jeans, then choose the basic model - that is, plain boots WITHOUT (!) any decor (straps, buckles, jewelry).

A common mistake many girls make is buying jockey boots. They feature an asymmetrical boot and strap buckles typical of riding shoes. Such boots look great with tight trousers, leggings, sweaters or jackets, but they look dubious with dresses and skirts and are categorically not suitable for office wear.

SUMMER SHOES WITHOUT HEELS

I think that comments are superfluous here. Sandals or sandals without heels are an indispensable attribute of travel to the seas and warm countries. Well, don't forget about the birkenstock.

SNEAKERS & SHOES

Fashion is fashion! Here something always appears that destroys the established stereotypes, otherwise there would be no development, ultra-modern collections, bold ideas with a seemingly mix of things would not appear.

Trend recent years is such that a lot of fashion comes from the streets. Now, of course, I'm talking about sports shoes - sneakers and sneakers :-)

Everyday life with its comfort is gradually conquering the fashion world and looks quite natural.

Summer version - sneakers / sneakers with dresses and skirts smoothly passed into the winter version - a fur coat or coat with sneakers. So that outerwear is combined with sports shoes or coarse boots, choose basic or.

SLIPONS

Another option basic shoes without a heel that fits everything, while keeping our legs rested.

The shape of slip-ons is very simple and concise, so it is much more interesting to choose a model with bright colors or with an unusual print. Rhinestones, embroidery, metallic shine are also an option :-)

It's funny - a few years ago, many girls could not even imagine that you can look stylish without heels in flat shoes. Today, comfort determines almost everything!

However, many people note that a comfortable look in shoes on a flat run does not always give a figure in the very in the best possible way... Often it is because of wrong cut clothes, things "do not fit" the figure and distort the proportions in the worst side... And boots, sneakers and any flat-soled shoes only highlight imperfections.

In a basic course at an online school, I teach how to correct the vicissitudes of a figure with the right clothes and shoes. So my students decide this question after one lesson, practical homework and my personal recommendations!

Comfort and practicality - this is how you can describe fashion trends in shoes 2019. Fashion designers offer to wear shoes with missing heels that satisfy the desire of women to look not only fashionable and stylish, but also feel comfortable in them.

Steps

Choice of shoes

    Buy the correct size shoes. If you haven't bought a shoe for a long time, find out what your foot size is. Size can change with age, so there is a danger of buying shoes that are too big or too small.

    • Shoes are designed for narrow, medium and wide feet. If you have a very narrow or very wide foot, consider this.

  1. Be aware that there are several varieties of flat shoes. They may have different heights: Above the ankle, below the ankle, to the knee or mid-calf. Here are some examples of such shoes:

    Before you buy shoes, think of at least three looks that these shoes would fit. The more versatile your pair is, the better. If you are short on space in your closet, universal shoes that goes with everything will help you out.

    Consider if the shoe fits your body size. Flat shoes can be worn by everyone, but certain combinations with flat shoes are more suitable for people of a certain physique.

    • If you have a fragile physique, wear flat shoes with skinny jeans that end at the ankle. This will make you look taller. Choose shoes with a pointed toe rather than a round toe.
    • If you have a figure hourglass, wear flats with dresses above the knee.

This combination will make your legs look longer, especially if the shoes open up your feet (like ballet flats).

    • Ankle-length shoes can also be worn with short pants.

  3. Skinny jeans and trousers look good with any flat shoe. If the shoes are taller than the ankles, trousers or jeans will need to be tucked in. High top sneakers are the only exception as the jeans will not fit and will need to be straightened out from the outside.

    Shorts look great in combination with shoes above the ankle and with boots. They also make the legs look longer. If it's cold outside, wear tights under your shorts for a less serious look.

    • The shorts can also be worn with shoes below the ankle, however this will enhance the feel long legs... Remember this if you have long legs.

  4. Flared and any wide pants can be worn with any shoe without a heel. Do not tuck trousers into shoes as this will look ugly.

    • Try pairing the pants with shoes of the same color. This will visually lengthen the legs. In addition, the shoes will not "cut" the legs.

How To Wear Flats With Skirts and Dresses

  1. Know how to pair perfectly flat shoes with dresses and skirts. As with trousers, some types of flat shoes work better with dresses and skirts of a certain length. Here's how to best pair your flat shoes with skirts and dresses.

    • Can be worn and contrasting colors... For example, you can pair skinny jeans with white canvas sneakers and a black shirt. Top with a black jacket and a red plaid scarf.

  1. Consider how simple or complex your outfit is. If you put on dress shoes To elegant dress, it will be too much. An elegant dress is more suitable simple shoes and vice versa. This will create a nice contrast and prevent the image from becoming overwhelmed.

    Decide what shoes to wear to work. Finding shoes and clothing for work can be difficult. You want to look good, but you also need to follow the company's dress code. More importantly, you need to be comfortable, especially if you have to spend a lot of time on your feet. Consider the following:
