Dear Sosyalera,

If you’re going to look inside my closet, majority of my bottoms would probably be composed of JEANS. I’m comfy with jeans but I basically have troubles when pairing shoes with it. I’m just tired of using flats and slippers. I do know that when you wear jeans, it’s much better when you’re in heels but I just don’t know which style to choose. What can you probably suggest?

THANKS!

Dear Steppy ,

Jeans are comfort clothing so most of us pair them with our cosy flipflops. This fashion is very casual and laid back. I really admire girls who can manage to look stylish with jeans and don’t just stick with the usual pantalon porma.

Since you’ve decided to wear heels instead of the comfy flats, the next step is to choose for the right pair. If you want to reuse some of your (or your mom’s) stuffs, you might find these classic styles that don’t go out of date.

There’s nothing wrong if you still put on some of your old high heels but I think it won’t hurt if you’re also updated with the latest look on footwear. Gladiators, Platforms and Cutout sandals/shoes are still in trend.

Forget about your knee-length boots because Ankle boots look more appropriate in the Metro.

One good thing about high heels is that you can wear them even in a dress, shorts or formal slacks. And to all girls who are in a budget, allot a portion of your shopping allowance for 1 pair of classic high heels. At least you have something to use on formal occasions or parties and won’t have a hard time borrowing from someone else. We’re not in New York and dressing down is a culture so it’s a clothing to save on.

Lastly, make sure your attire matches your shoes. High heels sandals are recommended if your outfit looks modish and girly – though I think this is common sense na. Haha. As for the ankle boots, a pair looks good whether you’re in a boyish blazer or dress.

Well as for me, sa umpisa ko lang gusto mag high heels. I tend to become lazy with these shoes once my feet feel achy. Kaya don’t be like me.

Love Lots,

Leyn
