If you had to choose a pair of shoes to wear for the rest of your life, what would they be? Editors and fashion experts agree on the heeled loafers. This timeless footwear has been transformed over time to become the most elegant basic of the closet, capable of creating authentic styles and also versatile. It girls like Dua Lipa, Katie Holmes, Bella Hadid and Sonam Kapoor have also opted for the heeled loafer now and then.
As for brands, Gucci and Valentino created a stylistic wave where the platform designs took over street style. Their chameleon-like essence has allowed them to be worn with everything and for everything. Ahead, we curate how to wear them with all kinds of pants.
Pair your animal print pants from leopard to zebra with more classic and basic accessories, such as elegant loafers and a simple shirt. Since there's a lot of print going on, opt for timeless colours or go the maximal route with a melange of hues. Kitten heel loafers are perfect for achieving sophistication, as their tiny heel and triangular toe, in most cases, create a flattering visual effect.
These will be ideal for wearing wide pants in formal contexts, such as the office or a social event best paired with a tighter, more fitted shirt. High-waisted pants can be worn with a romantic blouse or a blazer and a pair of loafers with heels. If you're a bit daring, however, knee-high socks and stockings would be ideal for clacking about hand-in-hand with your girlfriends post a night out.
This formula will allow you to experiment with different styles while sticking to trends. If you prefer something more traditional you can add a button-down shirt or sweater and keep it subtle, but if you're more daring, try completing it with a boho vest or oversized shirt. Capri pants have dominated street style despite being difficult to style aesthetically.
But we learned that the problem lies in the shoes they are paired with. The trick lies in avoiding those chunky or midi boots, with heeled designs such as loafers. Last but not least, we have a tailored suit.
Elegant women take note, this combo serves as the perfect corpcore look. Replace pointy heels with chunky yet comfortable loafers, ideal for running around and standing for longer hours. This story first appeared on vogue.
