Agree i will never let go my ballet shoes, they super comfortable if you get the good quality one. I have all in different color, It’s my go to for casual outfits
I'm 5'3" and ever since Shea pointed out that ballerina shoes make short people look stubbier, that's how I feel when I wear them 😂 so for me it only Rothy's points as far as flats go.
@@chihuahuamama1443 personally I think loafers are much worse at making you look stubbier. Unless you are tall and have skinny legs/ankles very hard to pull them off and even then it’s a masculine shoe
@@diannesironic5025 I agree, I’m not a huge fan of them either. That’s why I said I only wear Rothy’s points as far as flats 😁 but I did like the look of The Who What Wear pointed flats that Shea showed in this video. If I could find a similar pair from a better brand, I’d wear those too.
I’ve never cared to be trendy. I wear what I like. Still interesting to see what young people are wearing.Because trends just get recycled! History repeats itself
The problem with ballet flats is the round toe. You don’t have to go loafer. It’s a completely different style. Instead go with a pointed-toe flat shoe. There are many right now which are pretty and classy.
I think what is truly "out of style" is allowing other people to tell you how to dress. While I may agree with some of these due to the shoes listed not resonating with me, if I loved the chunky boots, I'd wear them! True style is finding a way to make your preferences work for you! A good "recommendation" video to give people things or options to consider.
Well they're her opinion and what she'll wear but her recommendations are to me just options. I'm not going to any shoe store or shoe department to buy what she's suggesting anytime soon. My other shoes still fit but I'm going to limit wearing any pointy toe shoes for health reasons.
The basic, round toe pump will never be "out", in my personal opinion. Plain, basic pumps will simply blend into any outfit you wear, for office or date, church or club. Loved all the rest. Neutral colors, very little ornamentation, they all work with a range of outfits, and as long as they fit well, will not go out until they wear out beyond repair.
The trend doesn't be in or out for me except they are comfortable, affordable, strong and healthy. The pointy toe reshapes your toe direction. Shoes should match the natural shape of feet not force them to evolve and hurt while and after they do. Pointy toes are a no-no for me and the verdict is out on the round toe but square toes whether they're in or out I'll go back to them.
I’m a ballerina shoe lover and I will never give up my ballerina flats ever, they look elegant,cute and feminine 💕 and it’s a classic piece that will always be part of my life
Every year I go to Paris as my husband’s is a Parisien. Every year I head to Repetto to add a pair of ballet flats to my collection. I wear them with dresses, jeans, leggings, shorts and skirts. Considering the brand has been around for many, many, many years and has a huge chain of stores, I would say those ballet flats are too classic to go out of style any time soon.
I agree Repetto IS a sure winner (though pricey ballet shoes) but they are top quality and will never go out of style. Having said that I am French so perhaps biaised 😉
The main reasons why I keep a pair of “cheap rubbery flip flops” is because I need them for showers when using shared space (hotels, rental houses, etc.), and that I like to have a cheap pair of shoes for the beach/pool. Anyone else??
I will never get rid of my rubber flip flops for the exact reason you mentioned! I always travel with a pair because they're great for the pool, quick trips to the hotel front desk and on a fall visit to Amsterdam, it became unseasonably warm and I was able to wear them around town with jeans while my travel partner was miserable in a pair of ankle boots.
I'm sure she meant not to wear out. Of course you need rubber flip flops for showering/beach. But when people wear them out and about they are pretty bad. Especially when worn with a dress.
@@tuttyfat Yeah totally. I definitely don’t wear them out, but I always keep one pair on-hand. I was just curious if anyone else had the same perspective.
Nae Vegan Shoes has beautiful and feminine loafers. Plus a lot of other classic and trendy styles. Their vegan leather is top quality. Looks & feels like real leather. I absolutely love every pair I've purchased.
Comfort and health of feet > "trends" These trends are just here to make us buy more and more and fill the pockets of brands that convince us we don't have to like something because "it's out of style" such mental gymnastics and people buy into this.
Exactly, I'd rather spend my money on better quality and keeping up with technology more than buying a square toe shoe this fall, not investing in those. But I might wear a nice leather square toe boot I bought 10 years ago that still look new.
You knowwwwww I used to be very self conscious and felt I had clown feet specially cause I'm short... But I guess I'm getting older cause I have this attitude now like fuck it I wanna wear it they're comfortable so what big deal I got big feet suck on that hahaha and I am having a blast
I love pointy toe shoes but sometimes they are not comfortable. Ballet flats are comfortable. Flip flops are for the beach/pool. I think we should wear what makes us comfortable and happy♥️
Ballet flats in the 00s and 2010s completely messed up my feet. I wore the ones with the very thin sole and no support or cushioning. I do have joint hypermobility so that may be a factor.
@@sweetLemonist that just about goes for everything though, doesn't it? Most clothes and shoes look better on attractive people with more desirable body types. It doesn't mean average looking people shouldn't wear them.
I agree with you! I loved wearing the newest styles and colors of shoes. I am 63 years old. I now have several major health problems and now I can only wear shoes that have less than 2 inch heels. And I have never worn pointy toes or square toes. I watched this video because I do like shoes and it interesting to see other folks' opinions.
“These boots do the same thing, they go far up your leg so they eLoNgAtE your legs” LOL…. are you okay? That is the exact opposite of what boots cutting off at mid-calf do.
I don't know how no one is mentioning that the square toe is very 1999 - early 00 😅 At that point in the video I realised trends are really stupid. Everyone should just wear what they like and find most comfortable.
Oh please, all of shoes that she said were out of style are true classics. The in style options were hideous trends except the loafers. She clearly doesn't know anything about shoes.
@@Bakerygo 💯 for example I can't think of anything more classic and timeless than the ballet flat. Loafers are good yes but they can't look as elegant as a ballet flat.
It has to be the right loafer. The loafers she showed are very masculine looking. I think mules can be a more feminine substitute for loafers. They have to be the right mules though.
Lol peep toes and round toes are never out of style, they are classics. Also half of her 'on trend' shoes are just hideous, not gonna be trendy for very long.
No way are ballet flats out of style. Forget it. As for loafers - you do you but they aren’t for everyone. Super preppy. I just do NOT ever even try them on in store. They aren’t even on my radar. It’s a hard pass for me.
Style is what you make it... Wear what makes you feel good and if it looks good on you, rock that ish!! Notice, she gives HER opinion of what's out of style. Everything that she's presented has revolved through the fashion world many times over the years. Especially the square toed shoes, which we wore in the late 80's and early 90's. Point being, keep your ish and wear it because it'll still look good on you.
@@staciangelly I love a square toe, so comfy. I still wear a pair of square toe sandals that I bought over 10 years ago, glad I kept them are they are fashionable again now
I would never give up my ballet shoes. Thats all i wear everytime i go out. I dont care if its trendy or not. When it comes to shoes i chose comfort rather than trendy.
Wedge boots forever! They make my legs and butt look great! If I wanted to get those construction style boots, I’d much rather just go big and get Timberlands.
Loved this - you made me laugh & learn. Note however that I am retired and l have foot issues. I am keeping the ballet flats, my round-toe boots & shoes, my polka dot rain boots (they make me happy), and my one pair of wedge boots. They may not be “in style” but they are “my style.”
Hi, nice review. I like that you specify that for you ballet flats are out of style because it’s your personal opinion. Ballet flats are a classic wardrobe staple for decades and are never out of style in the larger fashion world sense. Ballet flats and loafers are both staples. I have both and wear them as the mood strikes or by what looks best with the outfit 😊
So funny.. all the ones that are "in style" now have been in my closet and on rotation for me for the past 5+years... rule of thumb.. just do you and own it ;)
Haha I feel the same but mostly with the out of style ones. I’m sure they’ll cycle back in eventually. My only “hit” now are the retro sneakers which I’ve been into since middle school 😂
I’m currently working on a Chanel Make up counter, and the shoes we must wear are the flat ballet pumps with a bow, the ones in your video. So really, I can’t agree at all that ballet pumps are or should be out of style.
The gladiators are still in but look different being more wrap around straps. Those brown sandals are so not attractive. They look like the sandals from the Sound of Music. I also disagree with the rubber flip flops. The Havaianas are always a summer staple for years to come. 😉
I have bad feet so I have to stick with certain brands. That being said, it makes me buy more classic shoes. I don't think I'm a trendy person and I'm fine with it.
I’m with you. Some of those sandals might be trendy, but they offer no support. I’d rather be comfortable and treat my feet well than be trendy. Our feet carry us all day, so treat them well.
Very true that flat flat shoes are not really ergonomic or supportive so that's another thing to consider if you want to care for your spine... But like for an evening out that you'll be sitting a lot or a specific party... It's fun to try something different... Even if very rarely... Although some people get joy from their routine and consistency so that means not trends I gues
@@elizabethgamboademoreno7807 I am not opposed to buying new shoes for an event, but Shea talks about mostly everyday shoes, and for those as a teacher I cannot leave my supportive shoes behind.
Eh, I wasn't really a fan of her choices. I like some flats, not necessarily the style that she showed, but yeah. Wedge heals are good, and I'm not feeling the box toe style.
Yep, and some feet do not look good in square toed shoes/ slip ons. Those ones at the last part look like they are worn by high schoolers with knee high socks and plaid skirts 😅
Was literally going to say the same thing. Women have been wearing shoes that shape since at least the 1800's, so I don't see them ever going out of style. Best way to spend my money imo.
I had the Madewell Chelsea boots and returned them because after one wear, the bottom detached. Bought a pair of Blundstones and never looked back. They're pricey but actually hold up in the rain and look great.
I still prefer classic shoes. You know you are out of style when you hate every trend there is out there. I completely disagree with those flat combat boots option. I would look hideous wearing those. Keeping my wedge boots! Thanks for another great video!!
I felt pretty stylish until the ballet flats came out 😳 Ballet flats are my signature shoe! So, I guess I’ll be off trend until they’re back on trend. (And I thought those crazy rain boots went out of style ten years ago 🥸)
For casual summer outfits I prefer the classic Champion Keds sneakers in white. I also have them in navy. They are timeless and elegant, even in canvas material.
It would be nice to see high fashion style shoes meets function especially for people who have bunions. It is always easy to be fashionable without bunions but if you do choices become very limited.
I will never give up my ballerinas specially Chanel or similar!! Trendy shoes or clothes are here today and gone tomorrow but ballerinas can be worn to the supermarket or to a party. OMG so comfortable and always terrific looking specially with jeans or a trench!🥰
Baha oh no! I must be super unfashionable, cause I'm not into any of these styles! So many of them look like men's shoes or flats my grandma used to wear in the 90s! 😅
Agreed. I was sensing the old lady feeling, they're great alternatives for bad knees backs and hips which are usually women in mid late age. Or the men's shoe department cutting in with loafers.
I like the way I walk in them..its just like heyyy I'm a model and then that song starts playing wen I walk down the street "I'm too sexy for my ...." (forgot the words) but umm Wedges will stay in my closet.
I will forever wear flip flops Yes I know they are bad for you feet but they are comfortable for me in summer. I have no arch as it is and I can walk comfortably in flip flops all day
I am a flip flop girl, I used to wear them in winter! When I've been out there's been a few times they have broken on me so now I don't wear them as much. I will always have a love for them though.
@@sjordan7085 Don’t move to Hawaii. Everyone there will look trashy wearing them, in your opinion.🙄 Sorry but this is the most ridiculous statement I’ve read in awhile.
Not sure how “trendy” this actually is, but I prefer the Sperry duck boots over regular rain boots because I feel like those can also be worn rain or shine and they’re more stylish than galoshes.
Please wear what you want. Don't follow fashion trends. They are just there to make you spend your money. I'll tell you what's in. A woman walking with confidence, loving everything she has on. No matter what I don't care if you are wearing shoes from the '90s. If you walk with confidence people are going to tell you you look good. Confidence is key and everything. In everything you do. That fake it till you make it, words of wisdom. Always have a smile. 😏
Your being stylish or your choose of fashions like footwears will never be fade as long as that is your choice to be attractive and know that you are more fashionable with it.
It’s so funny what one calls in style cuz honestly, i would not wear most of these. Personally, Steve madden i wore in my teens to late 20s and nordstorm is boring.
I love the Chelsea style rain boot, I’ve gotten tons of use from them this spring and summer. Everything from actual rain, to yard work, walks by the beach when it’s a little chilly. I’ve worn it with cuffed jeans, leggings, and dresses. It’s a really practical shoe that happens to look cute with a lot of ny outfits
Off all shoes I only find the flip flops replacement better. In everything I preferred the older to the replacement. But I honestly enjoyed the video. Was straight to the point
Personally, I find loafers too preppy looking for my taste and the chunkier heel ones are just not flattering. I think the round toe ballet flat is so much more flattering and gives that "Audrey Hepburn" vibe, which is classic. I also love a pointy toe flat if I want a dressier look and alternative to a high heel. The Sam Edelman slide that she showed as an alternative to a rubber flip flop would not work around water, as it is made of leather! I happen to also like peep toe booties. They are great to wear in the early Spring or Fall, when it's not quite boot weather.
It is funny how many women in these comments agree on ballet flats :D I am on this team, too. They are timeless, elegant and comfortable. Loafers don't give the same feminine vibe.
Ballet flats, or any round toe shoe, makes me feel like a little girl. Nope, give me a pointed or snip toe for all my dress shoes and I feel like a woman! 😉
I agree with everything! I even have most of the “in” shoes you mentioned. I will hold onto my ballet flats because I know they will come back but I have stored them away for now.
I'm still wearing my ballet shoes. I love them and they are timeless. I'm short also. I think most of her picks were too masculine-looking. They may be in style right now. But style is a personal preference. I do like a lot of her tastes , most of the time.
I’ve had nothing but bad luck with every Steve Madden shoe with a heel. They are always super uncomfortable to me. I don’t even consider the brand anymore.
I feel like we should just keep everything we spend alot of money on because it will all ultimately come back in style 🤣 I love flat gladiator sandals, I'm sure they will be back in style soon!
The older you get the more you see old styles come back. Current trends feel too early 90s for me, and I didn’t like the look then and feel the same now 🤦🏻♀️
I just bought a pair on Amazon to wear with a specific dress while at the beach. Now I'm learning they are out of style! Oh well, still gonna wear them!
It seems that the new trends are more feminine and easier to incorporate to everyday leaving/style if not for outings at night! Thank you Ms Shea!! :))
I loved this video and I think some of the shoes 👠 are cute but I’ve never been one to conform to trendy things. My favorite style is what ever I decide at the moment and as long as I feel good then that’s what I’m going with. Thank you for sharing and I love your energy 🌸🌺🌸
Girl you are right about Steve Madden, I had a pair of strappy mules and I owned them from 6th grade til my senior year of college & wore them every week I swear, my shoe size had to change for me to finally give them away!!!
So many of the trendy shoes that you demonstrated are from the late 60’s and 70’s! I remember them well! One thing the pointed toe shoes unless they are made better now will cause corns on your little toe and the one next to it. I really enjoyed your presentation of all the shoes. I’m sure i will see my granddaughter wearing most of them.
I hate the square toe but when my students told me the 90’s were back I went full grunge on jean day, combat boots and all. At least square toe is more foot-friendly than pointy, witch shoes!
I've worn ballet flats for the past 10 years and they'll never go out of style. I wear what I like, not what is in "style." Some of these new style shoes will be out of style by mid 2022. Getting quality shoes that will last you a long while that truly support your foot shape and are comfortable for you is the way to go! As long as you find them cute and want to wear them, that's what I consider in "style"!
I think it all goes with the occasion some of these shoes can mostly be worn on casual occasions. For example if you going to an office, or interview you can't go in such types of shoes.
