Blue beauties: 3 casual looks with blue shoes

Blue shoes work well with fresh summer looks and light colors as well as sporty outfits. They look particularly good with jeans, but you should always opt for a shade of blue that is very different from the color of the denim – wear light jeans with dark blue shoes, or vice versa. Here are three outfits with blue shoes for casual wear:

1. On vacation

Wear blue shoes made of light linen, or sandals or shoes made of raffia for a stroll along the promenade or a visit in the beach cafe.

  • Our favorite look for her: navy blue espadrilles with a high raffia wedge heel, and a yellow ankle tie, a white pleated skirt with blue polka dots and a red halter top. Accessorize with a pair of large sunglasses and a floppy straw hat.
  • Our favorite look for him: flat navy espadrilles with a natural rubber sole and a pair of white linen pants folded up to ankle-length, and a dark blue polo shirt with signature logo on the chest. Accessorize with a leather bracelet and aviators.

2. Shopping

When you’re out shopping, the most important thing is that your shoes are comfortable and don’t make your feet sweat. Blue flats go particularly well with casual jeans.

  • Our favorite look for her: dark-blue low-top sneakers with a pair of light-blue skinny jeans, a white short-sleeved sweater and a patterned scarf. A beige shopper completes the look.
  • Our favorite look for him: navy blue fabric slip-on shoes with a white sole work well with a pair of baggy jeans and a light-blue casual shirt.

3. Touring the city

If you’re going to be walking on pavement all day, you need a shoe that fits perfectly and has a cushioned sole to prevent blisters and pain. Leather sneakers with an ergonomically shaped footbed are a great option.

  • Our favorite look for her: a pair of blue lace-up shoes made of suede, a pair of light-blue boyfriend jeans and a printed shirt. A little white rucksack with space for your smartphone, purse, and city guide completes the look.
  • Our favorite look for him: White-and-blue retro sneakers with a logo on the side look great with beige shorts and a light-blue V-neck shirt.

Needless to say, blue shoes can also be used to create a more elegant look, for example by combining a pair of strappy pumps with a yellow balloon dress for her, or dark-blue derby-style suede shoes with a pair of gray suit pants for him.

Blue shoes look amazing with other shades of blue, or bright colors such as yellow or red.
