As the colder months approach, wearing skirts and dresses becomes somewhat of a challenge. You don’t want to walk out of the house with bare legs, but at the same time, you’re not sure what shoes to wear with tights.
Thankfully, we’ve got your back! We’re bringing you six shoe options that pair perfectly with tights. These shoes will allow you to look stylish and stay warm at the same time.
1. Slingback heels
This may be a controversial idea since slingback heels are open at the back, and there’s an unwritten rule that says you shouldn’t wear tights with open shoes. However, as long as there are no openings at the front of the shoes, you’re good to go.
Slingback heels pair beautifully with tights, especially when you’re looking for a way to elevate your outfit. For a glamorous feel, make sure you’re wearing sheer tights as they complement this style of shoes best.
Bonus tip—tighten the back strap of your shoes to avoid the risk of your feet slipping out in public. I’m sure you know how awkward that feels.
2. Classic pumps
You can easily pair pumps with tights without looking out of place. Keep things simple with neutral colors or make a statement by choosing bright-colored shoes. You can even experiment with patterned tights to make your outfit interesting and noticeable.
It doesn’t matter if you’re getting ready for a date night or a business meeting, classic pumps will never let you down. Now you know you don’t have to pack them away when colder months arrive. Instead, use them to create a fresh, stylish look that will keep you cozy.
3. Mary Janes
Mary Janes are one of those shoes you love or hate—there’s no in-between. If you’re one of the fans, you’ll be happy to discover that these shoes pair perfectly with tights.
Sheer or opaque, all types of tights will look amazing with retro Mary Janes. Pair them with a short skirt or dress, put on a trench coat or blazer and you’re good to go.
With minimal effort, you’ve created a fall-appropriate outfit that’s sure to impress and show off your fashion sense.
4. Neutral sneakers
Your first thought might not be to pair warm tights with sneakers. It doesn’t sound like a match made in heaven, but neutral sneakers make it work effortlessly.
White or black trainers will look great with tights when aiming for a sporty-casual vibe. It’s a perfect outfit for lunch outings or a casual day with friends. This combination of tights and sneakers ensures you stay warm and comfortable all day long.
Thanks to life-saving tights, you can still wear your favorite denim skirt during the colder months of the year.
5. Loafers
Loafers are a fall staple and the best part about them is that they do tights justice. Pair them together and you’ll get an effortlessly chic outfit that all the fashion-forward women adore.
This combination will make you look sophisticated and confident. Things get ten times better if you opt for nude colors which are perfect for fall.
