For years, it was considered that if you wanted to look chic, you need to wear heels. Flats were only acceptable at the gym, going to the supermarket and the gym. My mum always looked at me with her usual disapproving look everytime I've put on flats. Ladies we have been 'suffering' on heels for decades, especially in the 90's when heels reached their ultimate high!I still can't believe the high heels I was wearing back then!
But the last few years we’ve noticed a major
shift in the shoe world. Well known fashion designers have sent their models on
the runway wearing trainers, sliders even flip flops.
So can we actually wear flats and look elegant
and chic?
The midi skirt and trainers mix
Street style all over the world had leaded the way for this stylish combination and its one of my favorite ones. So don't be afraid to style your most fashionable midi skirt with a simple pair of white trainers.
The ankle trousers and ballet pumps
mix
For years, ballet pumps were considered very
old school and out of style. Now most of the famous fashion bloggers style
their ballet pumps with ankle trousers for an effortless gorgeous look.
The dress and ankle boots mix
This mix is already a classic and the most
versatile one. You can match it with a biker jacket for a more rock style or
you can try it with a boho blazer and a pair of cowboy boots which is the
ultimate trend this season.
The tailored pants and trainers mix
Not everyone can pull off this look but if you have a lean figure then this mix would be perfect for you. Just make sure that your trousers are tailored to perfection.
The party dress and flats mix
A few years ago we would match our glamorous
party dress with flats only if we would have sprained our ankle! But now
wearing our amazing dress with some pointy flats (to make our legs look
longer), we are ready for a fun night out. Choose your flats in a metallic colour
to add more glamour to your look.
