Picking Shoes for Women's Fashion

Video Transcript

"Hi. I'm Teri Turco with Expert Village and now we've gone to the place for a woman's wardrobe, over thirty that she will have for the rest of her life. That is footwear. Now women love footwear and that is because we don't gain weight in our feet. It doesn't matter if we're thin, if we're heavier, if we're feeling bloated that day, doesn't matter because the shoe will always fit. Okay, so these are some basic wardrobe staples that you've got to, got to have in your wardrobe just to get through the day. Now, follow along. You have these in your closet, you'll always have something to put on your gorgeous feet. But, shop at will. Number one, you've got to have a flat. Wear it with your pants, wear it with a skirt. I prefer something with a heel, but you've got to have a cute little flat, black preferably. Then of course, you have your mid-heel, one, one and a half inch heel. I know some girls don't wear anything but a three inch heel, but for those days that you're just striding a little quickly down the street, one to one and a half inch heel is a good thing to have, of course in a black. These are Life Strides. They're super comfortable if you're on your feet all day long. Then, there is the basic black pump. Okay, the basic black pump is best if it has a pointed toe. I know right now round toes are really in, but the pointed toe elongates the leg, makes you look taller and thinner, and really gives you a much better look. Okay, sometimes women do a heel with a strap. The strap is nice, but what that's going to do is that is really going to shorten the leg. It's going to shorten the look. Now here's an addendum to the black pump. It's really important to have a wardrobe of black shoes if that's your basic color, but also with this pump you want to have a taupe pump. Taupe goes with absolutely everything. It is the same flesh color as your skin, and it really makes your legs look as long as possible. Then you need your little ankle boot. I always get mine in a lycra. This looks great under pant suits. It really elongates the leg. And you need a knee high boot. Now some girls really have calves that are super developed. Now these are square toes. You can get them in pointed toe, round toe, whatever toe you like. But just get a good knee length boot. And if you're worried about your calves really being very developed and not fitting, get it in a lycra that fits everybody. Last but not least, these are just basics, everyday basics, but for dressy you'll always want to have a gold and silver alternative. Okay, so just have a nice basic, it doesn't need to be super gold, it can just be a really subdued gold. And then something with a little bling to dress up that little black dress that's in your outfit. Okay, this is a really standard, staple wardrobe of footwear for you. But let your conscience be your guide and may you shop until you drop so that you can have a full footwear wardrobe."
