Planning and building a shoe/boot wardrobe
As I'm slowly overhauling my wardrobe I realized that I do not wear anything but sneakers, which doesn't always go well with some fits. I've been reading about different shoes/boots and been looking at inspo, what I struggle with the most is planning a combination of shoe types and colors that will be versatile but will not fill my wardrobe with shoes of the same color/type/leather, or at least that's what I think I want. I realize this is a slow process, so I want to lay out my options and plan ahead. I'll start with something like snuff suede shoes. Do I go for loafers or ranger mocs? Then chukkas, if I already have a pair of snuff suede shoes, do I go for a darker brown chukka or a tan chukka? What about a dark brown/black chelseas/work boots? Most chances I won't need to dress more formally in the future, maybe I'll dress more preppy but it'll take a lot of time (and cordovan loafers is something I plan to get at some point in the future), so until then I'd like to plan ahead for a more casual wardrobe. If there are shoe types I'd like to avoid for now until I develop a more coherent style it would be tyrolean derbies, tassels and black combat boots. What other shoes/boots types do you recommend?
