What to wear with brogues?
Brogues are boots that differ in a fairly traditional cut, but also have a lot of original additions. Lacing, decor in the form of original perforation and a thin sole with a small heel are the main features of such shoes. It is interesting that, according to legend, this shoe model was invented by farmers, and the thing is that decorative holes allowed it to dry out faster. And although initially this shoe model was exclusively male, soon women's images began to complement it. And now many of them are wondering: what to wear with brogues?
Variations on the theme: what brogues are combined with
The style of brogues is very reminiscent of classic men's shoes, so they often give the image a certain rudeness. In order to slightly dilute this rudeness, without completely hiding it, such shoes are often complemented with feminine models of accessories.
It can be elegant hats and clutches, fanny packs and eye-catching jewelry. Dresses and tunics, as well as skirts and leggings, are suitable as clothes for such shoes. Often, these shoes are complemented by jeans and matching trousers, but they must be diluted with a feminine top. What combinations with brogues can be called the most successful?
With a dress
It is with a beautiful dress that brogues look most impressive in a female image. It is interesting that the dress model in this case can be both shortened and elongated.The cut can be trapezoidal or straight, as well as flared or narrowed. It is better to choose the shade of the outfit to match, but so that it does not merge with the color of the shoes.
With shorts
This combination with brogues is ideal for the summer heat. Denim shorts will look good with brogues - sandals with thick soles. It would be nice to complement this combination with tights, but only if the brogues come with a low back.
Brogue boots and their varieties
This is curious, but not all shoes called "brogues" are the same in appearance:
- If there is a minimum of holes on the top of the toe, then such shoe models are called plain brogues. They look good paired with informal attire.
- Holes along the seams of the boots make a quarter from the traditional model. This looks great paired with classic clothing.
- If all the holes are concentrated exclusively on the toe, then the brogues turn into semi-brogues. Romantic images with such shoes look the most harmonious.
And only if the perforation fills the entire surface of the boots, they can be called classic brogues. They look good with absolutely any models of clothing, from casual to classic. Therefore, they will be quite appropriate in an ensemble with a variety of things.
