For the girl with classic style, classic shoes that can be worn for multiple occasions and with multiple outfits are a must. Today, we’ll show you what those look like.

ICYMI, over the past few weeks, we’ve been breaking down the pillars of a classic wardrobe, from classic outfits to classic accessories and even a full guide to classic dresses. Now it’s time to talk classic footwear.

Below is a list of the classic shoes that a classic girl needs to have in her wardrobe.

1. Black or nude heel

Product: Target

Black or nude heels are great for the classic girl because they can go with anything, for any occasion.

For a nice dinner wear them with jeans and a cute blouse. For a more formal event, try them with an elegant dress. They are good for going out with friends or going to work.

I love this pair from Target because they come in both nude and black so there’s no reason not to have both. Eventually, you can throw some colored heels into the mix but, if you’re trying to build a classic wardrobe, black and nude are the way to go.

2. Neutral sandals

Product: DSW

With spring right around the corner, everyone needs a nice sandal in their closet. These classic sandals are great because you can wear them through the entire warm season, again, for multiple occasions.

These sandals are a basic color that can go with any outfit pairing whether it’s jeans, shorts, or a dress. Plus, they look much more expensive than they are!

3. White sneakers

Product: DSW

White sneakers are another classic look that never dies despite the decade. White shoes are essential for looking casual but also cute. (More on this in our post on college girl shoe must-haves!)
