There are several things a shoe can do. One of the many things is simply closing the gap between generations. Now, there are many ways that the perfect pair of pumps can pull pleasure from the wise Great-Grandmother and the Pretty-Pretty-Princess toddler. Today's simple point is this:
A pair of "granny flats" are not always mature in nature. Depending on the color, texture, and the paired outfit, a 15 year old can wear them just as nicely as a 50 year old. An example is the beautiful satin, champagne, pointed toe flat! It would be nice if the mother-of-the-groom wore them to the reception, wouldn't it? Very age appropriate. Wait a moment...take another look. See the gathered cloth at the toe? the slight ruffle on the inseam? Could those possibly be paired with dark denim jeans and a tan leopard print? There is a vision of the young career woman on a day off. Oh, yes, these shoes are versatile.
The ultimate shoe for closing the fashion gap is the heeled oxford. Grandmother wore the oxfords to school with her poodle skirt and bobbysocks. The modern teen adds two or three inches to them and puts on a pair of skinny jeans to make it work. Thankfully, the heels on them can be found relatively low and chunky so Grandma can wear them without worrying about s twisted ankle. Of course, should her grand-daughter find herself a tall drink of water to date, the heeled oxford comes in a thin four-inch as well.
Shoes are Ageless!
I have heard many middleaged matrons mention, "Those heels are just too high for me!" Naturally, if hip, ankle, or knee problems arise, it is not safe to sport the six-inch stilettos anymore. The pretty-in-pink daisy canvas shoes shouldn't be seen on anyone over the age of 11, either. There are obvious rules about the rinestone butterfly meets the over-40 beauty and the spike heels sprain the seven year old that cannot be avoided. Were those rules to be left to the blatant discretion of maturity and not to be the focus of today's footwear topic, I would encounter something of a simple sort.
