In the core of summer, pair your sandals, ballet flats or pointy flats with ankle revealing pants ( not too large though or you’ll have a strange contrast between the width of the pants and the thinness of the feet). Last on the sock subject, for those who fear to go sockless because of the smell (yes… unfortunately we do sweat), there are some special super low designed socks.

With ballet or pointy flats, it can work, but only with see through socks and be careful cause it often looks quite old-fashioned. With cotton sneakers it looks odd, cotton is for summer right? So why wear them in winter with socks? Mark that I only recommend the sock trick with boyish leather shoes such as brogues, loafers, creepers, derbies, etc. If you fear that your ankles might get cold, go for very thin and quality socks ( avoid thicker sock). Try it even if you are plump, you could be surprised. This mix can work for a week-end outfit as well as for a work/chic outfit. The best way to wear them is always to show some ankle (a very sexy part of the woman’s body). Low vamp shoes such as pointy or ballet flats elongate the leg more than high vamp shoes such as derbies or loafers cause they show more of the foot and therefore give the feeling of a longer leg.

Therefore they are the best choice to elongate your figure. When you have figured that out, you can focus on the style matching.Įven though, I rather think, that when proportions are good you can rock almost every outfit mix if you feel like it (i.e creepers and dressed out pencil skirt, ballet flats and rolled up worn-out boyfriend pants).īeneath the ankle flats are certainly those that flatters the most people.īy revealing the ankle, they show the full lenght of the leg without “cutting” it. The height of your flat shoes determines what clothes will look good with them in terms of figure’s proportions.

– Knee high flats such as… hum boots, not etc. – Above the ankle flats such as low boots, doc martens, high chucks, etc. – Beneath the ankle flats such as loafers, ballet flats, sandals, sneakers, etc. There are three main types of flat shoes that depend of their height (not the height of the heel, they are flats ^^) on the leg. After my “ how to wear heels“, I had many reader’s requests asking me how to wear flats.
