As Carrie Bradshaw has taught us, shoes are an important element to every woman’s wardrobe. With the huge selection of shoes available, there is a shoe for every occasion and every style. How does one choose? More importantly, what do your shoes say about you?

 

Below are five different styles of shoes; choose your favorite shoe and make sure it is one you find yourself wearing the most. Once you’ve selected your favorite, scroll down and read what it says about your personality and style.

 

“The Sophisticated”: Ballet Flat

You speak with eloquence and hold yourself with grace. Often worn with blazers, feminine jewelry and pale pastels you aim to be classic and timeless. You are well educated, well spoken and hold your work at a high standard. Often quiet, you also have a sassy side and hold the ability to put your ballet clad foot down when needed to stand up for yourself.

 

 

 

“The Trendsetter”: Decorative Heel Boot

You are up to speed with fashion trends and able to rattle off a list of designer names. You have a keen sense of style and aren’t afraid to take risks both in fashion and in your personal life. You like adventure, seek new opportunities and are highly passionate in your field of study. You are not easily swayed by other people’s influence and have a high level of self confidence.

 

 

“The Daring”: Knee-High Boot

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You like a bold look that turns heads. A mix of sophistication and sexiness, you like to have an aspect of mystery to you. You are daring, often voice your opinion and are a go-getter. Your lipstick stained coffee is always in hand as you storm the streets as a full on #girlboss.

 

 

 

“The Simplistic”: Chelsea Boot

You seek structure and practicality in your everyday life. You like to be clean and prefer your lifestyle and wardrobe to be simple. Best worn with black jeans and a striped shirt, you don’t buy into trends and fashion fads. You wear what you know and have a strong sense of self understanding.

 

 

“The Edgy”: Combat Boot

With roughened leather and hints of studs, you have a rebellious side to you. You like to be portrayed as tough and don’t mind getting dirty. You are a hard worker, who focuses on the goal at hand. Not one to be swayed by your peers, you are fiercely independent and have a strong character.
