Three very important shoes!

First of all, I must state that I absolutely loove shoes!! High heels are my fashion weakness, FOR SURE! A while ago I just wanted to buy sky high heels and imagined myself going to all these super glamorous events, wearing my super glamorous shoes. Except that I don't live in Hollywood and I'm not a movie superstar, so I don't have red carpets to walk through wearing super glamorous shoes.. Soo, when I go to my parties, or even when I go out with friends, I don't like to wear my super tall shoes, because I feel tooo tall next to everyone. I am already tall and when I put on high heels I get even taller, obviously. So I figured I should stop buying sky high heels and start buying normal high heels; shoes that I could wear at night and also during the day. Elegant, classic and versatile shoes! Those that you can wear with anything and everywhere! Looking at my shoes, I realized that we only need 3 high heels! I know, I know, shoes are amazing and we all love having lots of them, but we really only need 3: a black one, a nude one and a burgundy one!

 

                                           BLACK HIGH HEELS

Black pumps are an essential item! Nowadays, you can go basically anywhere with a black pump, from the mall to formal parties! They can be worn during summer, with floral dresses, or winter, with black tights, for example. I personally love wearing high heels with tights.. I just think it looks so elegant!

Miranda Kerr and Kim Kardashian show us how to wear black pumps with a more casual style.. Miranda has on a leather skirt and a basic white tee, while Kim has on skinnies and a blazer!

Ashley Tisdale wore this look to the New York Fashion Week and took a risk here. She obviously loves to dress up and has fun doing it, but I'm not quite sure I love this outfit. I mean, I like it, but woudn't wear it. Nonetheless, her black pumps are fantastic! They are Brian Atwoods, I think!

Olivia Palermo paired her black shoes with black skinnies, a stylish trench coat and a clutch, creating an elegant, but still kind of casual look.

I just love this outfit of hers! She wore it a while back, but I still love it! This is a more formal look, for work maybe! A cute blouse, skinny jeans and a blazer make the outfit flawless!

Another formal look worn by Olivia is this one, on the left! She paired her heels with a simple but still very elegant black dress. However, her best accessory here is her super handsome boyfriend, of course! On the right, Olivia paired her pumps with tights creating the illusion of having very long legs, because the black shoes match the black tights.

Jessica Alba wore a black sequine dress on the red carpet with black tights!

Kourtney and Kim Kardashian are always an inspiration when it comes to clothes and these pictures show us why.. Both of them wore black pumps with dressier looks and they looked amazing!

 

On the red carpet, Kim Kardashian and Megan Fox wore black heels with cutout dresses which gave their outfits an edgier look.

Last but not least, one of my favorite looks: chic, elegant, easy and simple! Black dress + black Yves Saint Laurent heels = score!! Her many bangles add up to the outfit, making it even more chic!

    NUDE HIGH HEELS 

Since Christian Louboutin created the nude pumps, they became a must-have in every girl/woman's wardrobe! They go with absolutely everything, because they are the same shade as your skin, creating the illusion of having long legs! Very flattering shoes, they are worth the investment!

I think the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, is the very best example of how often and well a nude pump may be used!

(FYI, the ones she wears all the time are from the brand "LK Bennett".)

 Khloe Kardashian has on nude Louboutin heels which made her legs look longer and slimmer, a great trick for those who are looking for this effect!

Blake Lively paired her nude heels with a flowy skirt and a very cute pink Chanel purse, making her outfit effortlessly elegant!

BURGUNDY HIGH HEELS

Burgundy heels are statement shoes because of their color! Different, beautiful and elegant, they go very well with black, brown, grey and specially navy blue! They give a pop of color to the outfit, but still kep it chic and neutral, since dark burgundy is very much alike brown (also neutral).

Blake Lively was probably filming for Gossip Girl when she wore these amazing Brian Atwood heels. Paired with neutral colored clothes, the burgundy pumps gave her outfit an interesting twist!

I am not quite sure why Victoria Beckham is on a swing, but the main focus here are her gorgeous shoes by Christian Louboutin! Paired with grey (love this combination) her outfit is very elegant, as usual!

Nicole Richie wore a very light colored dress paired with her burgundy Louboutin heels; an interesting choice, since everyone always seems to choose a black or nude shoe, over the colorfull one. I wouldn't say burgundy is a color that pops out, but it is a pop of color when paired with neutral outfits!

Bottom line, high heels are amazing and there will always be incredible new shoes in stores, but we do really only need these three! Black goes with almost everything.. I don't really like black with brown or with navy blue, but lots of people do! So for me, my black shoes are worn with black (obviously), white, light and dark grey, pink, caramel (love this color!) and light blue, while my nude shoes can be worn with everything, honestly! My burgundy shoes are paired with black, grey, brown and navy blue. The dark colors that (in my opinion) cannot be paired with black shoes, are paired with the burgundy ones!
