STYLING THE CLASSIC BALLET FLAT

Timeless beauty and elegance that will never go out of style. This is what we all hope to achieve when styling ourselves and picking pieces for our wardrobes. Now, how exactly do we reach this seemingly unattainable yet attainable style? It’s quite simple - focus on the classics. 


A favorite classic of mine is the idyllic ballet flat. The perfect shoe to add an elevated sense of elegance to any outfit. Simple yet effective. When it comes to timelessness we must look to our style icons such as Ms. Audrey Hepburn. Audrey effortlessly pulled off the ballet flat, as she did most things. 





Now, the trick is styling these classic shoes during this cold winter season. My first tip is tights! Tights are elegant and chic, and perfectly keep you warm while still looking classy and together. Pair your ballet flats with a black mini skirt and a cream oversized sweater and your favorite winter coat to pull everything together. If you are going for something more casual, pair your black ballet flats with a pair of jeans and a black long-sleeve turtleneck, comfortable yet stylish. You will be achieving timeless beauty and elegance in just a few simple steps. 





Start taking these small steps and incorporating timeless pieces into your wardrobe and you will be dressing like Audrey Hepburn herself in no time.
