Hello ladies, I am Suji and welcome to Pink April Diary. Today's video is all about pairing the
0:07
right and chic footwares with your bottoms. This is actually a two-part video series and today's
0:14
video is the video number one where I'm sharing chic footwares to pair with jeans, pants or
0:20
trousers, and shorts. While you can argue that you can literally wear any summer footwares with these
0:27
bottoms, certain shoes will definitely elevate and make your outfits look way better than other
0:34
footwears. So you can consider this video as a cheat sheet, shortcut, or a quick guide to pairing
0:40
the right and the chic footwears that will elevate your summer outfits. So let's get started
0:48
Of course, the first style of bottoms that I'm going to be talking about are denims because they
0:53
are essentially all of our favorites and every one of us wear them now I'm not going to go over
0:59
jeans like straight like jeans and skinny jeans because I already have dedicated videos for them
1:04
which I've linked in the description box below and in the in the cards above so you can check
1:11
them out but I'm going to talk about some other style of jeans in this video first jeans that I'm
1:16
going to talk about are slouchy jeans which are tapered style of jeans so they're not just slouchy
1:22
style any kind of tapered jeans that is wider around your thighs but tapers towards your ankles
1:29
would be considered these style of jeans now they almost look like trousers and they're really
1:33
really comfortable to wear during warmer months but there are certain footwears that naturally
1:39
elevate them and certain footwears that you should not be wearing with them though I'm not going to
1:43
go over what you should not be wearing I will share some of my favorite footwears that will
1:48
look great. Now, if I want to not cuff my jeans, I would prefer to wear kitten heels, which just
1:55
elevates your feet a little bit. They don't have to be really high heels, so they will not be
2:01
uncomfortable to walk around with. Now, these style of heels also look very summery. I'm wearing this
2:06
thong sandal kind of a kitten heel, which I bought last year, and they're so chic. They are just
2:13
strappy enough to create that summer chic vibe and they elevate my entire outfit by creating that
2:20
elongated look and showing more of my ankle area. If you really want to wear flats, now the way to
2:27
get around with it is to cuff your ankles off the jeans. Now this is an easy way you can show a little
2:34
bit of an ankle and if you cannot do that, I would recommend wearing jeans that are cropped in length
2:40
i naturally love wearing loafer mules with these style of jeans because they naturally elevate
2:47
but i did not want to show that one again to you because you probably are sick of it so i decided
2:53
to show you another style of footwear that i love wearing all summer and these are slides now it
2:59
doesn't have to be canvas slides you can wear leather slides as well but slides are really
3:04
breathable comfortable they're flat so they're really comfortable to walk around with and they
3:09
They also add a summer chic look to this denim outfit. Now they naturally kind of show more of your ankle
3:16
and your foot So this way even if you are wearing flats you not going to look short but the key is that if you wearing flats with these style of jeans cuff your jeans my next pair of jeans are wide
3:29
leg jeans which are absolute favorite of mine for summer because they're breathable they're
3:34
comfortable most of the time these jeans are made out of elastic material so they are breathable you
3:39
can sit around walk around without feeling suffocated which really sucks if it is really
3:44
hard outside but they can also be really difficult to pair the right footwear with. Now I personally
3:51
prefer ankle length wide leg jeans. I do not like full floor length wide leg jeans just because
3:57
I have a shorter torso and they tend to make me look shorter. Nonetheless if you prefer to wear
4:03
flats with these style of jeans I would highly recommend going for ankle length or cropped style
4:10
of wide leg jeans because you really cannot fold the cuffs or you cannot fold the ends of these
4:15
style of jeans. They look really bulky. So going for a cropped style would work. And my favorite
4:21
footwear to wear with these are sneakers. Now it doesn't have to be just white sneakers. You can wear
4:27
colored sneakers as well. But making sure that you're wearing the low top kind of flat style of
4:33
and low ankle style of sneakers compared to chunky style of sneakers. If you wear chunky sneakers
4:40
it might create a bulky look. Your jeans are anyways wider at the bottom so they are creating
4:46
that bulk towards the bottom of your ankle and if you add a chunky footwear it's only going to make
4:51
it look chunkier and make you look heavier. Now if you want to wear a certain kind of a heel
4:56
I highly recommend that because it naturally elongates your feet and gives you the illusion
5:03
of longer legs. My favorites are espadrilles just because they look so chic for summer and they
5:10
easily kind of create that French style to your entire denim outfit. It is effortless
5:16
it is comfortable to wear and because of the wedgie style of the espadrille wedges
5:21
they also give you the height that your entire outfit needs. suit pants are my absolute favorite they are really comfortable and you can rock so many
5:34
different styles and they are much more comfortable than jeans in summer weather because they are
5:40
lightweight my favorite flats with these style pants are loafer mules again loafer mules are
5:45
perfect for summer because they still cover your toe area giving you that closed toe and formal
5:52
look that you need but because they have open back they're comfortable breathable and you won't feel
5:57
as sweaty and hot in them compared to just loafers and again because you are have that tapered feet
6:05
or tapered ankle style of bottom the the loafer mules kind of add a little bit of a bulkiness to
6:11
your outfit and create that masculine feminine balance that your outfit needs and it looks
6:17
really chic together. But if you prefer to wear heels, I again recommend wearing block heels
6:23
because block heels are naturally much more comfortable than kitten heels. And if you're
6:28
wearing suit pants to work or any other formal event or any other party that I've already shared
6:34
in another one of our videos block heels would be much more comfortable option Now for my heel I wearing these sling back pumps again another version where you have close toe style of footwear but because it is kind of open at the back it is more airy and breathable
6:53
but at the same time this outfit looks really sophisticated and structured and feminine as well
7:00
The next style of pants are like trouser light pants they can be pleated style or they do not
7:05
have to be pleated style but most likely these style of pants are longer in length and they cover
7:10
your feet entirely. Now these are again one of my recent favorites. I love them because they are so
7:16
relaxed fit and for somebody like me who has a straight figure they can add that curve to my
7:21
outfit. Now unfortunately with these style of footwearers wearing flats is just going to be
7:26
really clunky and messy because your entire bottom area of your pants are going to be literally
7:33
dragging around if you're wearing flats because if you cut off or you know tailor these type of
7:39
hands to fit your ankle they just don't look as chic compared to them being full length so in this
7:45
case wearing block heels or heels that are more square style of heels are much more comfortable
7:51
option and in this style of where you can also get away with wearing open toe footwares which
7:58
which are great anyways and they're much more comfortable for summer weather so in my first look
8:03
you can see that i'm wearing a black block heel which is completely strappy and open toe so it's
8:08
comfortable to walk around but at the same time it is giving me that height that these trousers
8:14
need now this is also a great footwear where you can get away with wearing some chunky heels as well
8:20
when i say chunky heels the heels itself are not chunky but the front part of the heels the open
8:28
toe style of the heels are much more bulkier they have a lot more fabric around the strap so they
8:33
look a little bit more chunky compared to just single strap sandals that you just saw previously
8:39
so this style of footwear would also look great with these style of pants because the pants are
8:45
more relaxed fit and longer but at the same time they're a little bit lightweight if you wear the
8:50
same style of footwear with jeans it might tend to look a little bit bulkier around the bottom
8:57
the next style of pants are my absolute favorite for summer they are linen pants they're comfortable
9:02
breathable you can wear them for literally any kind of occasion now if you want to wear flats
9:08
i again recommend wearing linen pants that fall to your ankle length they don't have to be super
9:14
cropped but just falling on your ankle is perfect because these style of pants are naturally really
9:19
lightweight so they don't really drop or they're not that heavy weight that they you know they look
9:24
like they're just falling on the ground so wearing a little bit of longer length of these style of
9:31
pants would also work now i love wearing slides with them and this is literally my uniform for
9:37
my entire summer when i'm running errands or doing something where i need to walk a lot so i wear
9:42
slides and they look perfect with these style of pants but if you want to elevate this particular
9:48
bottom or the style of linen pants you should try wearing them with espadrull wedges again another
9:54
popular summer footwear for me where it is breathable because of canvas material
9:59
but your feet are so close to so they look a little bit more elevated and sophisticated and you don have to wear really high espadrel wedges there are plenty of wedgie style a castania is one of my favorites where
10:12
you don't really have to go really high heel they also come with low heel options
10:19
let's get to shorts now shorts are a must-have for summer and my first style are denim shorts now
10:26
i love denim shorts because they really look structured and they look more elevated but
10:32
sometimes they can also look really casual and laid back so if you want to elevate your shorts
10:39
but at the same time you want to wear flats i would recommend going with lover meals because
10:44
again you are already showing a lot of your legs and if you go with something strappy it almost
10:50
looks like a vacation look if you're going for that absolutely do that but if you want to look
10:57
a little bit more structured and sophisticated low formules look perfect with these style of shorts
11:02
but if you want to wear some kind of a heel and elongate your legs even further i always feel like
11:08
with shorts your legs look really long but if you want to elevate it further wearing platform heels
11:14
is another great way where you will still stay comfortable because platform heels are literally
11:19
just walking on platforms so you are your feet are not going to get tired by walking long distance
11:25
and they will give your feet that height you need and add a chic touch to your entire outfit
11:30
my next style of shorts are linen shorts these are paperback waist shorts and i absolutely love them
11:36
they are comfortable they're breathable and airy but they can also be really hard to style because
11:42
they almost look like vacation shorts so how do you elevate it if i want to wear flats i would pair
11:48
flat espadrules lace-up sandals with these style of shorts because they still look more summery and
11:55
give you that french vibe but at the same time because of the strap detail of the espadrules flats
12:01
they elevate your outfit i think this is a great vacation look where you still look sophisticated
12:06
and elevated and you still look chic for your vacation and if you want to elevate it further
12:12
this is kind of another look that i shared in my previous video if you're interested to check it
12:16
out some party outfits where you can wear a chunky sandal or a chunky slide heel with this particular
12:23
style of shorts and add a little bit more of a party vibe and a chicness to this entire look
12:28
now again the chunkiness of the sandals the slide sandals itself balances out the short length of
12:35
the shorts and it kind of creates this balance and makes this outfit complete and it looks elevated
12:41
as well. I hope this bottoms and footwear combination video was helpful for you and you
12:48
found some outfit combinations that will work for you as well and for your lifestyle as well
