How to Wear Boat Shoes and Look on Point
Of course, these tips are just some tried and tested suggestions and not some rules that must be followed. You should always feel free to experiment and come up with your own style.
- Use the right accessories: Since boat shoes are a type of menswear-inspired shoe, they’re not very feminine. So to add girly touches, you must be careful when selecting your accessories. For example, choose floral bags with boat shoes instead of solid-colored ones.
- Avoid socks: Another way to add feminine touches to your boat shoes is by letting your ankle show. This can be achieved by either not wearing socks or socks that don’t show for example the loafer socks. However, if you’re wearing them for someplace wet like the beach or on a rainy day, you’ll obviously opt for not wearing socks.
- Plan your outfit: Since boat shoes are more of a casual style, but this doesn’t mean that you need to feel restricted, as we’ll also be sharing with you some party outfit ideas with boat shoes. But if you’re planning to wear them for a special occasion, ensure you’re well prepared and plan all the details well ahead of time.
- Bottoms to wear : Jeans and denim are always the best shoes for any boat shoes. For the best look, wear them with cropped ones or cuff up your jeans. Other than that, you can also wear them with khakis, skirts, and shorts.
- When to wear : These shoes are best suited for the Summer and Spring. Since they leave most of your feet exposed, they won’t be a good shoe type for chilly Winters.
- Choosing the right colors. With boat shoes, you never need to worry about matching the colors as they are simply made to stand out. But unless you’re wearing white boat shoes, avoid wearing pants in a color that’s darker than your shoes. One awesome combination would be to wear navy blue boat shoes with khaki pants, you should have a look at these Women Shoes with Khaki Pants.
- When to not wear . Always avoid wearing them in winter or for any black-tie event.
