• Depending on your work situation, the sneaker can be a weekend-only shoe option, or your everyday go-to.

• Your sneaker choice should pull your outfit together.

• Pick a sneaker that has sophisticated details: interesting materials, intricate laces, and color choices

• The “upscale” sneaker has been in style for a few years so you’ll have a ton of options to choose from.

2 . T H E C A S U A L “ O F F I C E ” S H O E

• You would wear this shoe if your office is “business casual”, or you had a nice outing to attend.

• A level above a sneaker, but not quite a formal shoe.

• There are a lot of shoe options that fall into this category:

• Ever-versatile oxford

• The plimsoll

• The lace-up

• The casual wingtip

• The loafer

• Try to keep both a brown pair and a black pair in your closet.

3 . T H E D R E S S S H O E

• Do not fall short in this department!

• The key to picking the right dress shoe, is finding a simple, classic style that can transition from important meeting to wedding with ease.

• My suggestion would be to find a nice cap-toe.

• You can get away with only having a black pair. Keep these shoes polished and cared-for, and they’ll last you for years.
