As tempting as it can be to stock your closet with a pile of feathery, sparkly, sky-high heels and fashionable shoes, they’re definitely not “essential.” Yes, they look great on Instagram, for the first impression maybe, but are they really confortable, versatile or been able to spend all day long wearing them?
No!, right?.

We definitely made aware of this during pandemic, so, here are a select number of styles that are actually practical—pandemic or not—and stand the test of time. Think chic white sneakers, chunky lug sole boots, flats, sandals, even transitional loafers. They’re easy to style, comfortable to walk in, and they’ll save you from what-to-wear moments when you’re headed out for your first sanity walk of the day.
