10 Shoes Every Stylish Woman Needs

[@tracysjonstrand8184]

I enjoy watching your shows as they have made me stop and reavalute myself and my wardrobe. Since putting on that lovely menopausal weight I am steadily losing it now with healthy eating and excercise. I have just turned 61 yrs old,but inside I'm still 35 yrs old. Through listening to you I have realised that for the past nearly 10 years I have been wearing all black completely and tents,no shape and wondering why I felt so down all the time.I have always favoured the tailored look and love shoes any style, but loafers a favourite of mine.I thankyou for your help,and feel that you are very passionate at helping all us women of all sizes feel good about our selves.Thanks.Tracy.

[@TarahMatson-zz2hj]

Marie Anne , I love every single shoe you showed. I have two great weaknesses; shoes and bags! They can take a boring outfit and make it amazing. I also love vintage brooches for some reason. You are so fun and inspiring. I really love your style. It’s classy and fun.

[@MarieAnneLecoeur]

That makes us Shoe Sisters Tarah 😃👠

[@carmencaldera5834]

Marie Anne I became adicct to your channel 😂😂😂😂, I love it...!!! You are the real French style lady!!! 😍😍😍😍😍

[@kalo924]

Love that last pair!

[@biljam972]

I love ankle boots, especially those with large rubber heels! They look good with everything, skirts, dresses, pants, and they are so cute and can be really elegant (I don't think anything like Martens or military kind of boots, but nice, stylish ankle boots).

[@carolhieronymus8816]

I am so glad it found Marie-Anne . Such excellent advice.

[@reenougle]

Chouette! I have every single shoe style in the video except ballet flats -I am short so I like to have at least a little heel. I have Chanel-style shoes and I feel very chic when I wear them. I also love the snakeskin pumps to jazz up any outfit. Living in France for 6 years made my wardrobe very simple and very French. I have a weakness for any Hermès scarf and Chanel No. 5 and 24, Faubourg are my parfums. En effet, j’ai l’esprit d’une vraie française, moi!

[@HeadingEast2025]

Happy to say I have all of these! But must also include a summer favourite, traditional espadrilles in white or black. Super comfortable, easy to pack and fairly cheap in price.

[@bettinagordon2348]

I love my espadrilles in summer and always get comments.

[@barbarabukovssek7062]

Espadrilles may be hit, but just not my choice. Even when used by royals. They just do cheap. Sorry.

[@luciaivalnovich5463]

Marie-Anne, impeccable style and presentation! You are ❤the best!

[@farrahjeanty7579]

I am not a fan of the Oxford shoes and sneakers. However, I do appreciate the beautiful slingback and the ankle boots. The sandals and the loafers are also ideal. What a beautiful closet!:)

[@AltoonaYourPiano]

Those all look amazing on you, especially the boots and the shoes at about 5 minutes in. Your sense of style is always so amazing!

[@mariaka15]

Thank you I love them all .

[@t.y.5565]

Yes, the Chanel style shoes! One of my must haves when I got rid of the cheap looking and started to dress more "chic". The loafers, flats and a basic court shoe/pump are my staples.

[@chickgreek]

Hi Marie-Anne, I used to have at least one pair of all of these, but now due to back problems I cannot wear certain styles anymore. I do have short and tall boots, trainers in multiple colors, flats, and both nude and lizard pumps with low heels (which I also adore). I love your sling backs and had a similar pair, but after almost falling in them I had to give them up so .... but enjoy seeing you wear them in that beautiful color combination! I will live vicariously through your videos ! 😉😘

[@beverlyfletcher4458]

I could not live without a pair of brogues: good to know French women like them as well! Must get a pair of those skin shoes now. Merci, madame.

[@mimishimaineko1173]

Shoes (and purses) are a touchy subject for me--I've collected so many over the years, some that I love and some that I never wear. It's hard to pick the best/essentials, because it would be admitting purchase mistakes made and that, in the end, being practical always wins over glamorous dreaming.

[@bookmagicroe9553]

I love all the shoes, especially the last pair. Alas, I have knee problems and must wear low heels.

[@suzannehall5200]

I really like 9 of these. I am not a sneaker person, I am much happier in flat loafers. I don’t have any knee high boots because in Melbourne there aren’t enough days in the year when it gets cold enough to wear them. You see ankle boots everywhere in winter but I rarely see the longer ones. I love ankle boots! Out of all the ones you showed my favourite is the ballet flats. I am a bit ashamed to say that I have 6 pairs of those. But I do wear them all.

[@lw1151]

Aw! Thank you! I can only get a few, but this really helps narrow things down. ...and i am never sure what shoes go with what outfits... like your classic approach.

[@stupor_mundi]

My favourite are definitely those patent derbies and the black ankle boots, but all of these shoes are amazing. Your 20yr old knee-high boots look new!

[@weamalgassim]

Timeless and classic collection. Thank you for sharing.

[@user-oq3rc5ef5x]

Your shoes are beautiful. I definitely need to add a few more to my collection. Having the variety, if one can afford, definitely can dramatically change the look of an outfit. Another lovely video, thank you😊

[@naylabyxbe3411]

I particularly liked 7&8 and. Loved how you could not hide your passion for shoes.

[@KathleenMayTSurla-zx9ft]

As a woman who is starting her wardrobe collection thank for guiding me and I didn’t know that some of style choices are French inspired I love your recommendation of shoe style and mix and matching of feminine and masculine style.

[@KathleenMayTSurla-zx9ft]

Thankyou

[@oliviasmith6192]

Absolutely Love, French style clothes and shoes as they are timeless and you can wear season to season. Worth investing. Must get the loafers.

[@SFGal2011]

Love the 20 years old Bally hi-heel black leather boots! Mine are 11 years old, in excellent condition, and are keepers! So versatile. Excellent presentation, Marie-Anne!

[@c.antonia3133]

The knee black boots are and will always be my favorites. They are such a statement piece

[@deborahb.277]

I love the tan sandals the best. I live in a warm climate and wear sandals at least 6 months out of the year.

[@maf9265]

Very beautiful selection, Marie-Anne! Which brand are the summer sandals you show first? They look very different from the ones you linked. Thank you!

[@ellabelle1277]

I have a love for red shoes. All different styles, if they are the correct red. I adore the snake print pumps. And yes, a pair of black knee high boots is a must and is in my closet. and also a nice brown pair too!

[@MariaLopez-hc2nm]

Hi MarieAnn! I just knew before you even started which 3 shoes would definitely be featured .and I was Right! The skin colour pumps The knee length boots And the Snake skin shoes... I was spot on!!!

[@Ccdurko]

So many fabulous shoes! I love and have many great sandles, and ballet flats, as well.

[@MarieAnneLecoeur]

[@alcoveoffice]

Love the black Clark ankle boots! Clarks are so comfortable, and these boots are gorgeous!

[@CoffeesChypresBooks]

Thank you for this video - my shoe wardrobe needs updating, and I wasn’t sure where to begin. These 10 shoes are great.

[@mmcolon1]

I love all the shoes and boots with the exception of the masculine shoes. Love the two-tone black and white, sandals, nude pumps and the last pair of animal print pumps. Beautiful.

[@vivianaorellana3973]

I have had almost all of them and I’m from South America. My taste regarding shoes is definitely French style. Merci beaucoup!

chanel style is the best! so beautiful and timeless

[@junebarnick3089]

My favorite pair of black leather, pointed toe boots. Am going to look for Chanel tan & black shoes. As always love your style 😉

[@kc3810]

#11: the platform. I love platforms. Kinda '70's looking but, if they were made in Italy or Spain, they are the bomb. They allow you to be fashionable on cobble stone streets, at the park, catching a bus, etc. I'm too athletic for skinny heels and too short for ballet flats but I love my platforms. Kork-ease are decent and comfortable

[@Crazyshoppeuse]

I've got most of the shoes you're talking about in the video. I love Converse (navy and white colours) and Superga (white linen). My favorite shoes are Weston brown leather slippers (for men) and the Django's from Sézane (leopard stilettos). Thank you for sharing tips and advices. Have a nice day.

[@constanceclark4541]

Over the past 40 years I owned 8 of those classics! French footwear is timeless! Oui! Oui!

[@inktvis6453]

Goed evening Marie-Anne. You look stylist. I agree with all your advice.

[@rm641]

I totally love the nude sandals, the red bailarina and the black/nude shoes from Tory Burch . I need them in my wardrobe. Thanks darling

[@elizabethpetrie7296]

Very interesting - and I'm glad to realize that I have a number of these styles already! I would also suggest a good pair of waterproof/rubber boots (e.g. Hunter) for those of us who live in damper climates . Elegant? Maybe not. But a lot more practical (and chic in their own way) than shoes that get soaked by rain, thus ruining both the shoe and the look.

[@nordlys3432]

I've 2 pairs of Hunter rubber boots: one for summer, one for winter, both for the dog walks with my English Bulldog and my sweet shelter bitchy.

[@carolinegeorgina566]

@@nordlys3432 l think a pair of Hunters in the right place can look very chic 😍

[@nordlys3432]

@@carolinegeorgina566 yes! I wear a Scottish wool Blazer and jeans to the Hunters. Perfect here in the country side and just my autumn style. 😊

[@kc3810]

Agreed. As a dairy maid and landscaper, I make sure my jeans and t-shirt, hat and boots are carefully coordinated. No reason to look like shit when eventually I'll come face-to-face with the public. Farm style chic would make a good youtube channel.

[@bettywhite8407]

Gardening boots work well for me.

[@leisongivangomo5656]

I am so glad you have flats and/or minimal heels in the lineup 👏👏👏 Do you believe that nude flats can be as chic as the heeled version?

[@monicagaitor6751]

I am definitely a SHOES person. I also don't step outside without a bag, clutch purse or wallet. I luv all the foot wear featured here. The Pumps, Loafers and Bali, are my favourites. The tennis shoes also and the sling backs too. Those boots, took everything to another level.. I told you, I luv em all..... Thank you for sharing 👠👡👢🥿👞

[@Barbaramamato]

In addition to my white Superga sneakers, I have a pair of tan leather Ecco sneakers aka lace-up Oxford style. I wear the leather much more often because the soles of the Superga are a bit more gummy on the bottoms. For walking jogging or running, I use running shoes and the higher density sole with the higher stability uppers of a trail shoes or rugged thick leather hiking boots with solid rubber soles for eh-hem hiking.

[@DallyFanai]

All of them are in my collection... How I love your choices Marie Anne❤️❤️❤️

[@sophiehaz7830]

I have all the shoes you mentioned except the flat balerina and black vernie one, Marie-Anne😊 I am petite already and although love flat shoes, I don't wear them unless gym shoes! BTW, i love the beige moccasins❤❤❤

Love the Bali classic boots. The inside zipper goes all the way down- so easy to get on and off. Great channel! Thank you!

[@janisezack1610]

Marie-Anne Lecoeur I recently ordered a nice pair of Chanel cap toe, slingback dupes. I agree with you regarding the versatility of Converse sneakers and love both pairs of your Tory Burch loafers. Actually, I love all of your shoes. Bravo! 👏

[@CatherineMary61]

I have some of these but need to add the Chanel style 😍, brogues, and loafers. I decluttered my shoes and after getting rid of many tired looking shoes realized I don’t have many stylish choices. After the declutter I bought a pair of sling back low heals that I wore the next day with pin striped trousers, blazer, and blouse. It was a nice feminine look to tone down the masculine look of the trousers. Thank you for your guidance! I’m finally embracing being 60 and realizing I can still look stylish!

[@islandchil08]

Salut Marie-Anne! I don’t know if someone else asked this but what is the brand of the knee high black boots you featured in the video? The fact that they lasted 20 years is a testament of its craftsmanship and I have a feeling that I’ll like the aesthetics of the company. Thanks so much for all the quality content you put out!

[@Lindyanne622]

Beautiful styles, some of which I could never wear because they have heels. Foot issues from age 21, foot surgery, orthopedics, hallux rigidus on both feet. Can only wear a flat shoe, of which style is often difficult to find. Consequently, I can only wear higher priced, well made shoes such as Naot or Dansko, sold here in California. I am a total Francophile, having spent many weeks in your beautiful country. Seven trips to Paris alone, making it feel like a second home! Love your channel

Fantastic advice. I love your style so much. The Chanel style is my favourite of your shoes. Classic.

[@raewynannbenten1385]

Great video Marie-Anne. I have all those styles accept for loafers, I’m still looking for a non slip comfy pair of those. My most versatile shoes have been my knee length black boots, they go with everything in autumn and winter. I would add another style to the list, a metallic pair of silver or gold strapped heeled sandals for evening wear in the summer months. Metallics can work like a neutral with lots of different outfits. Just keep them simple, not too many embellishments. Best wishes from Australia 🤗

The cutest shoes I've ever bought are peep-toe Chanel heels in black and white. Another favorite is a pair of taupe suede ankle boots. I've had a dream of ballet flats in a fun floral print--which I will *paint*. Hoping to do that project this summer!

[@janiceleeripley443]

I live on the beautiful tropical island of Bali. My beautiful brogues disintegrated from the heat and moisture. I kept them in my closet just so I could look at them until I cleared out everything during the covid lockdown in 2020. What I found missing from your list are espadrilles, I own 2 pair, flats and wedges. In my past life in San Fransisco I owned every pair of shoes and boots that you showed, except the snake skin pumps. Love your videos. P.S. My Grandmother was of French descent and lived in Paris during the late 50's and 60's. She brought me Chanel #5 and chain belt gifts when I was a child. She made many of her own clothes using Chanel and YSL patterns and had a mannequin customized to her proportions. xoxox J

[@tuttyfat]

Elaine, take your shoes to a good quality shoe repair/clean/cobbler(?). I found a guy that can make ankle straps for ballet shoes or make shoes and everything in between. It's also invaluable to have someone who repairs shoes well. I walk my soles down to nothing and have him replace soles constantly. Better than replacing whole shoes.
