Two things: first, don't be afraid to mix prints. They add a lot of visual interest to an outfit. Here I have animal print and houndstooth. When in doubt mix a holder print with a smaller one. Second, is you buy one shoe this season and you want something that will have trend longevity, try an oxford. They are do versatile and can fit into pretty much any style or aesthetic. Preppy, classic, androgynous, quiet luxury, edgy, rock, minimalist, maximslist...and so on. Your going to see a lot of them in stores in different shapes and colours. Mine are a pointy toe beige pair by Jil Sander that I found on consignment. There are a lot of secondhand oxfords out there if you look. Jacket and bag vintage, oxfords secondhand. • . falllook torontostylist StyleOver40 secondhandFind fashionstylist slowfashion FashionOver40 MumStyle genX genXStyle shopSecondhand genXInfluencer WhoWhatWearing genXblogger secondhandDesigner Over40Style 40Plus
