The Simple Nude Shoes

By Marta @fashion_caramel
I'm going to be very direct with you, I need a pair of simple nude shoes in my wardrobe ! And for simple I mean a classic stiletto in a shiny patent leather with no platform or any other trendy feature. A plain and simple pair of nude pumps which I will be able to wear with anything, on any occasion and hopefully for a long time.

Following Christian Louboutin's opinion that every woman needs to have a pair of nude shoes, I decided some months ago that I needed to find mine (yes I know, I'm weak !). I wanted mine in patent leather (vernis) because normal leather will get dirty and ugly after the first wear, and I wanted them in the perfect color to match my skin tone (this is though because my skin color changes every time I get a tan...).
I can only advice you to do the same, if of course these suit your style and if you don't already own YOUR perfect pair of nude pumps. I'm with the king of shoes here, the nude pumps are probably one of the most versatile shoes you can have, and as with other classics like the Equipment blouse or the perfect skinny jeans these will be a safe option when you don't know what to wear.
Here are some affordable designs if you want to start looking for yours...

And some designer styles to dream...

To be honest, I still don't have my perfect pair but be reassured, my hunt is finally over and if everything goes according to plan I'll soon show you my very own nude shoes. I chose one of the option on this post, any guesses on which one I picked ? (tip: it is not the obvious choice !). The answer will be on the blog very soon, be patient.
How about you, have you found yours ?
Have a great week ! xx
