Beautiful slip-on shoes are a standard in any woman’s wardrobe, and that’s for all the right reasons. Whether it’s for work or a night out, heels are not your only option to complete a casual-chic outfit. Trust me, your feet will thank you if you opt for a gorgeous pair of quintessential flats instead.
Ballet flats are my go-to shoes for any outfit as they are both comfortable and cute. I also love mules with a barely-there heel. They are a breeze to walk in and a perfect combination of casual and sophisticated. Pointed toe flats are another stylish classic, and a real wardrobe hero for the professional woman.
You can dress slip-on shoes up with a suit or dress, or you can pair them with jeans and a T-shirt for a more casual and laid-back outfit. They are easy to wear and can be paired with just about everything. But the best thing about wearing flats, of course, is that you can stylishly wear them all day long.
Say goodbye to blisters, bunions, stress fractures and traumatised toes. Fast-paced living, comfort and style can go together, and that’s what Millwoods is all about. If you’re looking for inspiration on what to wear with your comfortable and stylish slip-on shoes, try these casual-chic outfit ideas.
- Printed slip-ons with black and white
Black and white remains eternal chic. When you pair printed slip-on shoes with an all-black or all-white outfit, or a combination of black and white, you’ll look naturally elegant. They complement the inherent minimalism of black and white and with the right accessories, you can create the look that suits you best. Our Linden Loafers, available in a range of prints and colours, are a perfect match for stylish black and white. Trynie Owen left us a 5-star review after she purchased a pair and said: “They’re like walking on clouds.”
- Slip-on shoes paired with a maxi skirt
Maxi skirts have always been on my radar as I just love their simplicity and flowy vibe. The look dates to the ’70s but it’s not going out of style anytime soon. A maxi is feminine, versatile and oh so comfy. Maxi skirts and dresses are like a blank canvas, and you can wear them to work, a wedding, or for a quick dash to the grocery store. A beautiful maxi skirt can make you look casual but also office ready. Slip-on shoes complement them because of their simple design, and mules can dress up any outfit. They work exceptionally well with a maxi skirt if you’re going for a less casual look.
- That awesome ’90s vibe
The 90s brought us Sex and the City, scrunchies, studded belts, cargo pants and oversized pantsuits as worn by Lady Di, Jennifer Aniston, Fergie and the Spice Girls. It was when the last generation without cell phones was young, and some call it the golden decade of fashion! The iconic looks of the '90s influenced many of today's most in-demand trends. More suitable for the weekend than for work, but if you wear a cute pair of slip-on shoes with overalls and a crop top, you’re absolutely fashion forward.
- Blue Jeans and a Blazer
Pairing a blazer with tailored jeans and stylish slip-on shoes is a great way to pull off the smart casual look. Single-breasted blazers work best with a pair of jeans, but a double-breasted blazer can be a fabulous statement piece. Depending on the occasion, a plain T-shirt, button-down dress shirt, turtleneck or light sweater all work well with this look. Our Banksia Ballet Flats are a perfect match to complete this look. As Janelle Fitzpatrick said in her review, “They look fabulous and make me feel happy whenever I pop them on.”
- When you mean Business
In a corporate environment, you’ll want to strike the perfect balance of professionalism and style. From smart suits to pencil skirts and sophisticated separates, when dressing for the office and client meetings it’s most important to feel comfortable as you’ll be wearing these clothes and shoes all day. For a well put together business attire, changing pumps to stylish flats makes perfect sense. Go for black or a neutral colour for a more classic look or hustle in style and add some fun with hot pink, brown zebra or leopard print.
