Shoes, Boots, and Extreme Fashion
Probably the most basic distinction in footwear is between shoes,
sandals and boots. Here we'll take up that first division, shoes, in
more detail. A useful way of thinking about women's shoes is to see a
division between 'dressing it up', 'extreme fashion' and 'keeping it
casual'. Whether you prefer heels or flats, gloss or suede, open-toe
or Mary Jane, any shape or style of shoe can be fitted into one of
these three categories according to what qualities they bring to your
outfit.
'Dressing it up' includes dress shoes and office-wear, of course, but
also a lot of the more sober fashion items of the season and perhaps
the top end of 'smart casual'. If your shoe has a tidy and/or narrow
heel, displays sleek and formal lines in a classic finish and adds
sophistication to your wardrobe, it's a 'dressing it up' shoe. You'd
wear it to make an outfit look smarter or to show that you're making
an effort - like a little extra make-up, for feet.
'Extreme fashion' includes the extremely voguish or fashionably over-
the-top shoes which are making a very loud statement about your look's
close engagement with the trends right now. You could distinguish a
high-fashion shoe from a 'dressing it up' shoe by asking yourself
whether you're still likely to want to wear it when this season's hot
new looks have become passe. Sequinned Elvis slingbacks? Extreme
fashion. Fur stilettos? Extreme fashion.
'Keeping it casual' shoes tend to have a softer, chunkier, sportier or
more broken-up shape. They are often flat or low-heeled, made in
comfortable materials with impact-reducing soles, and emphasize
practicality over glamor. They show that you're relaxing and taking it
easy with your look, even though they may also be reasonably smart or
fashionable shoes to wear, and so they can sometimes be used to dress
down an outfit.
