Dictionary of Shoe Styles
Do you know your shoe styles?
There is lots of information now available on shoe styles you should wear with different body shapes BUT if you don't know your shoe styles you might not be getting the effect you are looking for!
The number one point though is that whatever you wear, you must feel confident in it regardless of whether it fits the fashion rules!
So sit back and relax while I give you a quick overview of the different shoe styles available:
The Pump
This is a heeled style that is normally closed toe and the feature that defines it is the chunkier heel
The Slingback
Has a finer heel than the pump and the feature that defines it is the open back
The Slide
With the slide features that define it are it has an open toe and is backless
The Ballet Flat
Is a flat style slipper shoe with a rounded toe and no visible seams
A Peep Toe
This style can either be flat or have a heel but it is defined by the fact it has a small open toe which allow the toes to "peep" through!
The Wedge
Can be a high or low shoe but it's defining feature is that the heel is a triangular wedge that runs from the back of the shoe to the front
Hopefully you now know the basic difference between the styles available!
