A shoe is never "just" a shoe. Sometimes all it takes is a different pair to refresh the same old dress. Or the other way around: a well-thought-out look can be dulled if the footwear doesn't match.
In the end, shoes speak volumes about you: about how you walk, about your way of being in the world. And while fashion pushes us to change every season, there's one thing that never goes out of style: well-made footwear, the kind that lasts for years and saves you time and time again.
Most popular types of women's shoes
Every shoe has its role. There are everyday all-rounders, those that effortlessly add a more sophisticated touch, and those we save for when it's time to "dress up." Learning to distinguish them isn't just a matter of style, it's also a matter of practicality: knowing what you really need and what will end up forgotten at the back of your closet.
Women's casual shoes
Sneakers and casual shoes
Sneakers have earned a permanent place in every wardrobe. They're not just for sports; now you can wear them with jeans, flowing dresses, or even a light suit. At Beatriz Furest, we make them in leather, with a design that doesn't go out of style in six months. That's the secret: buy a pair and not have to repeat the purchase every season .
Nautical shoes: practical elegance
They have a nautical yet classic feel. They're comfortable, but not too sporty. Boat shoes work great with straight-leg pants or a midi skirt. They're the kind of pair that makes you feel well-dressed without looking too over-thought.
Oxford flats: sobriety with style
They have a masculine heritage and a very defined character. Oxfords are perfect for a workday, but also for a long walk in the city. They're serious, yes, but not boring: a basic that survives any passing trend.
Women's dress shoes
Timeless that elevate any look
Dress shoes don't need embellishment. Quality leather and clean lines are all you need. The kind of shoes you wear with jeans and suddenly feel like you're wearing a carefully thought-out outfit. Discover our women's dress shoes .
Versatile for day and night
The beauty of a well-made shoe is that it's equally suitable for the office as it is for dinner. The key is that it doesn't destroy your foot and doesn't become outdated after a second year. You achieve this with good materials and a design that doesn't rely on fast-paced trends.
Women's shoes for fall-winter
Boots: functionality and style
Nothing screams fall-winter more than a pair of boots. Tall, mid-calf, leather... whatever you want. They're warm, protective, and elongate your silhouette. They dress you up even when you're wearing the simplest of outfits.
Boots: the mid-season wild card
Neither as formal as a knee-high boot nor as relaxed as sneakers. Ankle boots are the best fit: they work with dresses, pants, and skirts. And they're a lifesaver when the weather is that uncomfortable "neither too cold nor too hot."
