Build a Wardrobe from Scratch: For the Soles

I’m back with a roundup of shoe staples.  Again, I chose an almost all black shoe wardrobe, since black proves to be the most versatile color.

Black pumps

I own and love these rain boots.  I found them after discovering that Hunter wellies are too wide for my feet.

Flat Sandals

Metallic shoes are even more versatile than black; in a sandal, metallic provides just the right amount of glitz without being too flashy.

The total for each category?  $4300 for the Luxe items and $418.88 for the Less items.  Once again, the “Less” items cost approximately one tenth less than the “Luxe” items.  I swear I’m not doing this on purpose!

What do you think of my shoe staple selections?
