THE SCENE:
Spontaneous gratis shop w/a random gal @ Belle Square.
…This gorgeous gal had a big, fancy, date one particular evening. Now I don’t know her, but I watched her shopping for a new outfit at a fabulous boutique. She got it all together and then went to another store for shoes. When she came back, the sales gal who helped her said, “Those shoes aren’t sexy enough for your date, honey.” (They were nice enough) – matte black leather, versatile, everyday-ish pumps for the office. The language of their look? Safe, traditional, one dimensional.
The stress was just oozing.
“They aren’t?” I don’t know what sexy looks like for me”.
Her son was w/a babysitter, she was out of time and….panicked! It was a “critical” date and I knew I could quickly help ease her mind. ….Didn’t know how she’d react, but I offered to take her shoe shopping to eliminate the stress. In 30 minutes we quickly defined her “shoe sexy” (which was still pretty classic) and bought just the right pair! In the end she returned the conservative pumps. This sleek toe box looked great peekin’ out of her dark denim boot cut jeans -which were topped off with a sassy & silky little red blouse. With a big smile she left feelin’ excited & ready for her date – confident about her “new version of sexy”!…..
Oh…The curiosity’s killin’ me!
TIP:
If you have a conservative shoe style, you can stay true to your shoe personality AND also quickly take your look up a notch by choosing patent leather, metallic, or a rockin’ a splash of color! In this case, her comfort level was still a closed-toe, but we did add a little heel and some patent….and she was off!
