Although proper business clothing is needed to make you look professional at the office – the most important accessory in your wardrobe is actually your shoes.

A great pair of shoes can help you stand out, making a plain business suit look amazingly chic.

To make a great statement for the fall and winter season, select basic colored clothing – like a navy blue suit or simple black dress, and dress it up with a great pair of shoes.

There is a giant selection of footwear to choose from, but when purchasing shoes for work, start with a few pair of basic black pumps with a small heel and branch out from there.

If your job has you up on your feet a lot during the day, making sure that the shoes are not only stylish, but also comfortable, is very important. Also look for eye catching styles and colors that will set off the whole outfit and make you stand out. Pairing a colorful scarf with bright shoes is an excellent idea.

Don’t try to get extra time out of a worn out pair of shoes, thinking that no one will notice. Scuff and worn marks on the front and sides can make your whole outfit seem drab. Once your shoes begin to show wear, be sure to replace them with a new pair. This not only boosts your wardrobe, but will make you feel more confident too.

One simple purchase of quality shoes can bring your whole ensemble to a whole new level – helping your style and professionalism at the office be a step ahead.
