7 Shoes to Wear With Satin Skirts That Always Look Chic

Deciding which shoes to wear with satin skirts may not sound tricky, but I found myself working through this precise dilemma recently. In the wake of the sunshine and pleasant 15-degree temperatures we’ve been experiencing, I’ve rediscovered the more lightweight pieces in my capsule wardrobe, this including my selection of pretty satin midi skirts. Admittedly it has been a while since I wore them, so when I initially pulled on a cream fluted style, I found myself unsure what to do with it next. Top-wise I kept things simple—a white shirt in a soft washed cotton to emulate the same fluid texture of the skirt. So far so good. Expensive-looking gold jewellery in the form of my stacked bracelets and my signature gold hoops; easy. Then came shoes, and I was a little bit stumped.

On this particular day, my trusty tan slider sandals, which I always tend to wear with my satin skirts in the summer, weren’t quite warm enough. Pulling on some loafers, they didn’t seem to work for me either (I see many people make this combination look chic but, on me, they just don’t gel). An hour later I had tried on pretty well every footwear item I own with the same skirt, and I can confirm that some shoes do go better with satin skirts than others.
