Beige shoes - the height of elegance

In a women's basic wardrobe, there are usually two types of shoes: black and beige pumps. And if black shoes are more suitable for a strict or evening look, then beige shoes are universal. It is appropriate to put them on in the office, and for a walk, and on a date.

The phrase "flesh color" we used to consider beige, the one that looks like human skin. However, everything is not so simple: there are about a dozen shades and variations of this color, each of which is good in its own way. Beige can be a little brown or yellow, pink, lilac, gray.

In the fashion world, things are even more complicated. The "flesh" color, which stylists used to call "nude" (English - "naked"), until recently, was just a classic beige. But since 2015, a whole palette of shades has become associated with the color "nude" - from ivory to chocolate. This was done for reasons of tolerance, as human skin colors are very different.

Nude beige is always appropriate and elegant. It is the calmest among pastel shades and is easily combined with other colors.

Beige shoes, perfectly matched to the color of the skin, visually lengthen the leg. They will go well with any accessories and will definitely never go out of style.

Light beige tones (yellow beige, peach beige) look very fresh. Shoes of this color are great for wearing on vacation, and a business suit will add a touch of playfulness and lightness. The best light beige companions are burgundy, black, red, white, green.

This shade looks romantic and gentle. Ruffled textile bags and flowing dresses look win-win with such shoes. Perfectly combined with coral and gray colors. By the way, it is not necessary that the shoes should be classic "boats". In beige and pink, ballet flats, platform sandals, Mary Jane and Audrey Flats shoes look great.

In the 2016-2017 season, designers paid special attention to details. The shape of the shoes remains classic, but the accents on them are placed in a new way.

Straps and buckles of various shapes are in fashion. They can be working or perform a purely decorative function.

This season, metallic sheen on shoes is combined with any style and color of outerwear. For evening events, beige pumps with rhinestones are suitable. Jewelry can be “scattered” over the entire surface of the shoes, or they can elegantly decorate the heel or heel.

Please note that lacing can look quite restrained (leather laces), or it can look romantic (satin ribbon). All sorts of options are in fashion now.

It happens both hidden (beige shoes on a hidden platform lengthen the legs very much), and ordinary. In addition, designers offer to wear high and wide heels and other types of massive soles.

This, of course, is more about boots and boots, but some designers have put fluffy accents on shoes as well. The fur can be located on the heel, toe or at the ankle. Looks original and playful.

These shoes look a little pretentious, but at the same time very feminine. If the shoes are open at the same time, a sophisticated romantic image is created.

Rivets, zippers, spikes give the shoe a bold and sometimes aggressive look. Shoes of any color with lots of metal fittings are always a challenge. Keep this in mind when choosing a similar pair.

For several seasons in a row, a gentle retro look has not gone out of fashion, which is created by neat shoes worn with elegant socks. Color combinations here can be the most daring, but either white fishnet socks or socks that exactly repeat the shade of the shoes perfectly harmonize with beige shoes. Depending on the style, designers offer to wear under the shoes both short socks and long enough ones that will go down to the foot in folds.

The main rule when choosing beige shoes is that they should be the same color as your legs. It was then that they will produce their stunning effect, visually lengthening the legs. This rule is true if you plan to wear shoes in the summer without tights.For wearing in the office, at business events, or just in cool weather, it is important that the shade of beige shoes is combined with tights. So it is much easier to combine, because. tights of the desired shade can always be found on sale.

Beige ballet shoes or shoes with very low heels will complement the romantic girlish look. At the same time, they are comfortable and practical - you can go shopping in them or wear them on vacation.

If you are not tied to a dress code and want to lengthen your legs as much as possible, take a closer look at beige platform shoes. Matched exactly to your skin tone, these shoes will take you to dizzying heights!

A few win-win options created by designers:
