Guide to Outfits with Flat Shoes 2024
Heel lovers, don't run away from this article: it's written for you too, because if you think of shoes without heels you probably only think of flat slippers. end of the day. We will also talk about those, I admit, but in a very fashionable way: they are also among the trends of this season.
Spring-summer 2024, in fact, is a season that will make you take it easy: alongside very high, soaring, important heels like those of Elisabetta Franchi sandals, the world of elegance opens up with wide, low heels and, listen up, completely absent ones.
Spring/Summer flat shoes: how to match them
So let's do a little reconnaissance on what will be - and already are - the new trends with some ideas for impeccable outfits even without heels. Don't worry if you fall into the "petit" category: those extra centimeters are not always needed to appear feminine and at ease, you just need to have the right ideas to create a stunning look and, speaking of shoes, in step with the times.
We'll talk about a few things, so before we start, here's a quick menu to access the section you're interested in:
Texan spring summer 2024
Rehabilitated from the boho-chic looks that have been so popular for a few years now, the Texans, recognizable by the prominent toe and the downward trapezoid-shaped heel, fully enter the women's shoe rack, moving further and further away from Texas and cowboys to become an iconic and glamorous subject.
Aniye By but not only, they offer them in two versions, with low or high leg. Let's start with the first ones.
The "baby" Texans, as the brand defines them, look good with flared trousers or jeans, from which the tapered tip emerges which, optically, helps to elongate the silhouette, as well as with midi or midi-cut dresses and skirts.
Extra tip: if your silhouette is balanced/tapered, try baby Texans with sheath knit dresses, completing the look with a leather jacket or a short or cropped denim jacket. Alternatively, or for all other types of silhouette, it is better to opt for a flared or pleated skirt, even better if it has a high waist to best balance the figure and gain those centimeters lost in "elan" with the mid-calf cut of this footwear.
Last inspiration? Leggings, of course!
If you want to feel a bit of the air of the West, the most obvious combination is with jeans, but we are not here to talk about the obvious (even if they are legitimate in terms of use).
The truth is that we Texans like matching clothes, and in two extreme cases: very long or very short! With an extra vice: long dresses are even better if they have significant slits, which reveal the presence of such an exclusive shoe underneath the skirt.
A perfect combo for free time as well as for the evening, for certainly relaxed and non-formal outings. A beautiful long printed dress for the day, as well as a long dress also laminated (speaking of trends) after sunset, and off to your new seasonal outfits.
As for short dresses, the combinations proposed by Aniye By are practically perfect. They play a lot with contrasts: dresses in lace or tulle with Texans for an alienating and original effect will make you the queen of the next party. Alternatively, miniskirts are allowed (even better if they are tight), shorts (even leather-effect), denim mini dresses and in general, flared and tight-fitting: as long as, in short, they are mini!
Sneakers 2024 with and without platform
In fact, they have been present in seasonal offerings for so long that we wouldn't have much to say about them, so let's take this as a refresher: sneakers are super versatile and can easily cover almost all of your daytime and leisure outfits.
Ok with jeans, ok with jacket and trouser suits (ALT: cropped wide leg trousers or classic/skinny at the ankle, the hem of the trousers cleaning the floor is usually not a nice sight...)
They always have a slightly teen allure and lighten up any type of outfit in a casual direction. The multicolor proposals by Pinko , Patrizia Pepe and Elisabetta Franchi Pe24 seem to have a particularly sporty feel, therefore easily matchable with denim garments and very casual clothing in general, including leggings and biker pants.
The situation is different for laminated sneakers (like those by Twinset ) or with laminated details, which are more easily paired with dresses, the classic suits mentioned above, and combinations with tops (shirts, t-shirts) and flared or pleated longuette skirts for a comfortable outfit with a slightly vintage feel.
Ballerinas and slingbacks: the importance of combinations
From a few centimeters to zero centimeters the step is short, but the differences are many: let's say that ballet flats are not exactly a formal shoe, slingbacks are and we also like them a lot.
Let's start with ballerinas, often defined as shoes that are not exactly feminine, yet so feminine: it's all a question of combinations and tricks. For example: avoid those with an ankle strap if you are not very tall, and in that case prefer pointed models that almost seem like an extension of the leg.
Try them with a cut of ankle-length or below-the-knee trousers, as well as with flared or mini-cut midi dresses: if you create balance along the silhouette, emphasizing the point waist or the shape of the leg, you will avoid the "squat" effect that this shoe can make you think of when you see it peeking out from a skinny and long jeans up to its waist.
The same goes for long dresses: we already know that if you're not very tall, the idea of wearing one with ballet flats is light years away from you, but whatever your height, make sure that the dress stops appropriately at mid-calf or at least ankle: The floordoesn'tneed the hem of your dress.
Adorable shoes with a retro feel, slingbacks add a few centimeters but a lot of style to your outfits, to be shown off with ease and nonchalance even on the most formal occasions. The printed ones by Pinko are gorgeous, the laminated proposals are gorgeous and super trendy, but also any other format.
Underline their "throwback" taste with garments that reflect the same mood: waisted shirtdresses, high-waisted flared skirts, but also ankle-length chinos if you're not a fan of skirts. Avoid very long dresses and some types of very short dresses: they would clash too much with the inspiration of this proposal.
Slippers and sliders: the trendy "slippers" of SS24
In leather, in denim, in PVC, with jewel applications and totally simple: we have something for all tastes, but the fact that there are so many forces us to talk about it (and we're happy about it!).
This season's “slippers” leave the comfort zone to be worn around, and they are so cute that you would have no reason to hide them. On holiday as well as in the city, in slide or flip-flop style, there are ones suitable for any time of the day, including the evening.
They go well with all the casual parts of your wardrobe (daytime mini dresses, shorts, denim), but if you want to push yourself to wear them after dark, avoid the more minimal models and fabrics or colors that are not suitable for the evening. Opt for a black, leather or laminated sandal and match them with simple long dresses (and not pretentious of elegance) or refined knitted garments (like the outfits by Akep ) that suggest a relaxed mood but not left to chance.
Avoid, perhaps, tight sheath dresses and mini dresses paired with flip-flop sandals or slides: it's okay to be daring with your imagination, but it would really be too much. Instead, other types of flat or jewel sandals that wrap the foot with greater refinement of the shapes, for a final effect that is decidedly more balanced.
