Besides clothes, shoes also play an important role when women over 40 years old complete their style. If you choose the right shoes, the overall outfit will not only be more luxurious and sophisticated but also effectively enhance your figure.
However, there are 4 types of shoes that ladies over 40 need to "erase" from their wardrobe if they don't want their style to be criticized.
Lace-up high heels
High heels with long straps are not as graceful and feminine as you think, but they will make your legs look shorter, making your overall figure narrow and less beautiful.
This type of shoe also makes the overall outfit look messy. In case you choose shoes with large laces, your feet will look heavier.
Women over 40 should avoid complicated lace-up shoes.
Especially for women over 40, these types of shoes are completely unsuitable for their age. You should choose a simple, thick style with thin straps.
Oversized sneakers
The popularity of sneakers is loved by young people. However, for women over 40, these relatively heavy shoes tend to reduce their temperament.
In addition, this style of shoe also easily makes the whole look too exaggerated, and older women should not wear it.
Oversized sneakers are not suitable for ladies in their 40s.
A pair of white, flat-soled sneakers is the perfect choice and goes with every style for women of this age.
Platform high heels
High heels are inherently a "treasure" that helps women hack their figure. However, this type of shoe can still have the opposite effect if you choose the wrong one. Specifically, when wearing platform high heels, your feet become bulkier. This type of shoe can even reduce the sophistication of the outfit.
High-heeled shoes make you lose points with the person you are talking to.
Women over 40 should prioritize elegantly designed high heels such as pointed toe shoes, thin strap sandals, beige shoes... These shoe designs effectively lengthen the legs and create a graceful figure.
Neon colored shoes
The modern trend of high heels is not high heels in bright colors. This type of shoe easily makes the outfit look disjointed, lacking harmony, even tacky. If you want to dress beautifully "from head to toe", neutral-colored high heels are really worth investing in.
Neon colored shoes need to be removed from the wardrobe.
To complete a sophisticated, luxurious look, ladies over 40 should prioritize shoes in black, brown or beige tones. Neutral-colored shoes help balance the overall outfit, thereby ensuring elegance for the style.
