1. Tonal or contrast in color?

Do you want to create contrast in your outfit? Pair pants and shoes in a different color. Think multicolored pants with white sneakers or black pants with shoes in a (bright) color. Do you want to create a streamlined look? Combine pants and shoes in a tonal color tone. Success guaranteed.

1. Tonal or contrast in color?

Folded cuffs create ‘air’ at the bottom of the legs that’s emphasized and balanced by open shoes like pumps. Do you want to wear pants or jeans with folded cuffs in combination with sneakers? Wear the top tucked into the pants for balance. Extra tip! Do you want to pair folded cuffs with ankle boots? Choose pants and ankle boots in a tonal color. Do you prefer to wear your pants full-length? Wear the legs over ankle boots or high-top shoes - preferably in the same color - for an optical leg-lengthening effect. Wearing pants tucked into ankle boots? Then a tonal combination is a big yes.

3. Tailored pants

Tailored pants are one of the most versatile styles within a wardrobe, because you can wear this basis item both for a business look and a casual look. Opt for a business look with pumps and ankle boots in the same color tone or in a slightly darker color for a subtle color contrast and to deepen the color. Tailored pants in a casual way??All-time favorite is to wear tailored pants with (white) sneakers - whether it’s a wide-leg silhouette or a slim-fit silhouette.

3. Tailored pants

When you put together an outfit and you can’t see the socks or you prefer to showcase the socks as part of your outfit it’s nice to choose socks with a print, lurex socks or open-worked socks for an extra fashionable feel. Are the socks showcased within a look, but don’t want them to stand - for example in a business look? Choose socks that match the tonal color way of your pants for a serene look.

Platform heels and wedges guarantee optical longer legs, that are created by the height of the sole. Platform soles and wedges are both elegant and feminine and guarantee optimal walking comfort. Wedges also effortlessly combine with tailored pants, jeans, wide-legs pants and flared styles.
