Many people believe that the color red should only be used at very specific times and that only women with high personality can wear it. However, the color goes far beyond that and is great for adding a special touch to any look, especially when that touch comes in a red shoe.
For image consultant Leticia Pontes, red is an exciting and stimulating color. "The woman who chooses a red shoe in her look tends to suggest a dramatic, self-assured, brave and active personality," he says.
Who also believes in the potentialities of red color is Mayra Freire, image consultant.
The red shoe has the power to turn a dull look into a stylish production. It is a very striking piece and will probably draw a lot of attention, taking your wardrobe out of sameness and adding more personality to your image?
Therefore, the red shoe can leave any basic look with a more stylish face and the woman who wears it, wins a lot in personality. "The red shoe adds some drama to the look, arousing strong feelings and opinions, which can be further enhanced depending on the elements that make up the shoe," Leticia reinforces.

The advantages of the red shoe
In addition to the red color potentials described above, the red shoe brings many advantages to the wearer. Aesthetically the red shoe creates a focal point in the feet, ideal for those who have some body part that wants to disguise or is slightly overweight, for example. By drawing attention to the feet, we deviate the perception of these points ?, explains Mayra.
According to Leticia, when coordinated with another piece that is also flashy the look is even more interesting and shows the creativity of those who wear it. • Combining a red shoe with black or white is easy as they are colors that most people are used to wearing. The advantage of red is that it prompts us to test other combinations, being a true exercise in creativity.
When to wear the red shoe?
Because it is so characteristic, there are some doubts about when to wear the red shoe. Below is a list of occasions you can opt for this shoe:
- Express confidence and disinhibition: When a woman wants to express these characteristics, it is a good time to wear the red shoe. "The woman who chooses the red shoe is very creative and outgoing, so adding it to the look can be a great exercise for women who want to express more confidence and disinhibition," Leticia reinforces.
- Get attention: The red shoe is an eye-catching accessory, so if you want to go unnoticed, it's not the right shoe for that. "If your personality is well represented with a red shoe, wear it without fear, but remember that the red shoe will draw attention and show a strong and expansive attitude," reinforces Mayra.
- Do not use on serious and sober occasions: In a work environment that requires a certain degree of formality, more discreet clothing fits better. For Mayra, it is always good to evaluate if there is a need to use flashy pieces.
- Do not use when giving lectures: Whenever you need people to pay attention to what you are talking about, it is best to focus on your face rather than your foot, so the red shoe is not indicated, as Leticia explains.

Look night
The red shoe is also a great accessory to wear at night. To create perfect looks for the night, use it with contrasting pieces and sparkles. "For a devastating look, I suggest black leather pants, silver sequined blouse and we finish with the red shoe," suggests Mayra.
“For the night, I would match the shoe with a print dress that had red in its makeup.Simple, comfortable and with a lot of personality ?, is the suggestion of Leticia. Half-heeled pumps with thick heels are perfect for any evening occasion.
Party look
Party looks like wedding and prom are even more interesting with red shoes. For more formal occasions the look needs to be tidier and more elegant. In this case try to combine the red shoe with neutral colored pieces like beige, gray, black, navy and brown ?, opines Mayra. For her, when used in this way, the look is sophisticated and with personality.
Leticia's suggestion is to combine the shoe with gray and navy blue. "For the boldest, green and light blue are great choices, and red for the sexiest," he adds. Scarpin is the perfect shoe for these occasions, but it is also worth betting on heeled sandals.
