Matching bags and shoes

There are golden rules in fashion. Never ever question fashion as a religion. We pick and choose what to keep. Sometimes we convince ourselves we aren’t adhering to the laws, but really, we are. And the case of matching bags and shoes is the classic example.
Many old ladies will be seen with a pastel pink bag and pastel pink shoes – you may think oh dear lord – but it’s time to say right on. We do the exact same thing! We match. We just have a different idea about matching.
No longer is matching about precision. You wouldn’t want to wear tasseled shoes and a tasseled bag because that would be overdrive. But, you would wear a beige tasseled bag with leopard flats because they work together.
Keeping a look fresh and stylish is about variation, but you still need to ‘match’. Make sure you mix-match starting with your bag and shoes to start getting the easy rules spot on.

Saying farewell

In life, we say hellos and goodbyes all the time. Some greetings and farewells are easy and meaningless. Others are tear- fuelled and difficult.
Knowing when to shoo away a pair of shoes is one of the hard bye-byes we say!
I would not call myself a hoarder in general. But with shoes, it is a whole new story. For some reason I always justify keeping that old, unstylish pair because, one day they might look good with something… I make excuses and tell myself that even though the embellishment on one of shoes is gone, it is fine and I may actually wear it one day.
I guess we all need a little courage sometimes so that we know how to say goodbye to a pair of shoes. If you’ve worn a shoe well, it should be easier. Thank the shoe for all the good times and service over the years, but it’s time to move on.
If you haven’t worn a shoe well, and you never wear it ever ask yourself: is the shoe ugly? Does it match anything? Could it realistically be handy to hold onto? Once you’ve answered these questions you’ll know what to do. I got rid of 2 pairs.
Bye-bye shoes
Shari xx
