How to Choose the Best Types of Shoes for Monsoon?

Hello everyone!

Monsoon is very lively and enjoyable season for most of us (not likely what happened in Uttarakhand). Monsoon rains can ruin your beautiful and expensive shoes right away when you step into the muddy road. But that does not mean you will have to wear ugly shoes with your cute dress. Find out here what the best options for you this monsoon are.

Colorful Flip flops: There are lots of colorful and cute rubber flip flops available in the market and even online also. They are washable, no matter where your feet have been, they will be clean again. With casual college wear or day outing, they look very pretty.

Rubber or Plastic Shoes: Now a days shoes are available looking exactly like leather but they are not. They are made of either rubber or plastic, and hence they are great for monsoon. I bought last monsoon rubber shoes with straps from Khadim’s and they are very durable and stylish also.

Crocs: Crocs are very nice for monsoon. The little holes will keep your feet in breathable state. If your feet are covered, it will stay away from the mud and dirt, hence keep them safe. Buy colorful crocs to match with your colorful casuals.

Sandal with Straps: Straps are very important issue in this matter, when both of your sandal/ flip flop and your feet are wet; your shoes will tend to slip out. So, wear sandals with straps.

Ballerina Shoes: Buy ballerina shoes only if they are in rubber or Lycra material. You can also go for peep toe flats; they look very pretty with beautiful casual dresses.

Boots: Wear water proof boots. They will keep your feet safe and dirt free and also add statement to your stylish look.

So, these are the shoes that are great for rainy season, now take a look at the next list that you must ignore.


What not to do?:

  • Do not wear sandal heels, even with straps. Heels will make your steps slippery. You might slip and break your limbs.
  • Never wear leather. They will infect and injure your skin if it comes in contact with water.
  • Do not wear canvas shoes, they will soak water and attract bacteria.
  • Always dry your wet shoes directly under the sun light. This will kill the bacteria that are resting in your shoes
  • Avoid wearing socks, with sport shoes and canvas shoes. Wet socks will give you cold.

Enjoy monsoon with the right shoes for your beautiful feet. Happy rainy season to all!

How to Buy Shoes According to Your Body Shape?

Hello everyone!

Shoes are the most integral part of your appearance; it is also a necessary part. There are many types of shoes like wedges, pump shoes, flats, sandals, pencil heels etc. And no matter how appealing and perfect one’s figure is, not all types of shoes look perfect on her. Just like cutting your hair according to your face shape or choosing lip colors according to your skin tone, we should also buy shoes according to our body shape. For that, we must know our body types. Here are examples of body types explained.

  • Petite and Thin Body ~  Girls with short height and skinny body. If your legs are thin and short, then you fall in this category.
  • Petite and Thick Body ~  Girls with short height and healthy body.
  • Tall and Thin Body ~ Tall girls with slim figure.
  • Tall and Muscular Body ~ Tall girls with muscular body.
  • Medium ~ Normal height with slim figure.
  • Medium and Thick Body ~ Normal height with healthy body.

Now, according to these body types which type of shoes will suit is explained here:


1. Shoes for Petite and Thin Body:

For, this type of body, wedges, platform and heels without straps are very preferable. If wearing short skirts or knee length dress, can also wear ballerina flat shoes. Always buy shoes without straps and pointy toes. No straps will give a smooth line look from heel to the knee which will apparently make your legs appear longer. And round toes will give a volume to the look. You can also wear peep toe shoes.

2. Shoes for Petite and Thick Body:

Heels will be best for this body type. To conceal your short and thick legs, bright color heels will be perfect. Wear fashionable prints shoes, even just-below-the-knee length boots, wedges and platform heels. But, never wear gladiator shoes or flat shoes as they will reveal your thick legs.

3. Shoes for Tall and Thin Body: Tall girls also want to wear heel, and they should also. If you are tall and thin, then ballerina and gladiator flats will work the best, since you got the height already. Also, heels with straps and medium height boots will look very flattering. But, never wear pointy shoes, the will make you appear more skinny and tall. Also, wide heels and platform heels will look odd on your body.

4. Shoes for Tall and Muscular Body: Wedge heels, stilettos and even pointy shoes will look very attractive on your body type. But never wear ballerina or other flats; they will make your appearance looks blunt. Small boots will also look good in this body type.

5. Shoes for Medium Body: If you are blessed with perfect height and perfect slim body then you should not worry about your shoes selection. From wedges to stilettos to flats, all types of shoes will look good on you.

6. Shoes for Medium and Thick body: If you have good height and gained some weight on your body, don’t worry there are many types of shoes that will look flattering on you. Such as, wedges, heels, stilettos. Do not wear ballerina or other flats; they will make you look thicker.

So, figure out why you looked the other day little bit different and put those shoes aside that are not suitable for your body type. Enhance your beauty and assets with the right pair of shoes. And if you want to save your time of searching, buy Stilettos. This is one single type of shoe that will look fabulous with every dress and on all body types.
