Shoes and accessories can become vital make it or break it items for any outfit. Besides the obvious sparkly shoes that can be had on a dime, there is a world of great shoes waiting to be found in some unexpected places. Black jazz shoes, and dance teachers shoes have international appeal, in that the shoes are basic utilitarian, and very much of the moment. Also, boys shoes look great on girls and basic black oxfords, saddle shoes, plain Keds, Converse, and Toms shoes are trusty go-tos for a well styled outfit.
I’ve found that boys special occasion shoes can be found for a few dollars at second hand shops, with barely any signs of being worn. Because, whoever was the original owner was forced to wear them for their auntie's or uncle's wedding, and that was it! Also, Blundstone boots and black rain boots from KMART and Walmart can be handed down from child to child and can be worn in the most inclement weather, and still look great with any outfit. My daughters wore Blundstones everyday for years, in Toronto.
Tights are the workhorse of leg wear. Black cotton tights can work in most climates, and a finishing touch to any outfit. Tights can be worn with any shoe, look fabulous, and cover panties on the monkey bars and during cartwheels. Knee socks are a great find as well. Knee socks and tights will never go out of style!
seriously, how cute are these boys shoes from www.payless.com, on this little bunny! the outfit was from www.modernchild.net, bunny ears were from the drugstore. love it!
