Shoe and Handbag Intervention



Oprah teamed up with 3 professional Fashionistas for a Shoe and Handbag intervention on her show yesterday and here is what you need to know!


Shoe 411

  • Keep Animal Prints Contemporary, they're classic and go with everything


  • A pointed toe slims the foot


  • Darker colors make your foot look slimmer


  • Shoe boots or booties make the leg look longer (just make sure they hit at ankle or below)


  • Match darker clothing to dark shoes to elongate the leg


  • Tall boots make your legs look longer


  • Peep toe shoes hide foot flaws aka ugly toes


The 6 pairs of Shoes everyone needs

  • Little Black Pump


  • Comfortable flat that works for work and weekend


  • Show stopping gorgeous show


  • Cute sleek sneaker


  • Tall Boot- Heel or Flat


  • All weather boot


Handbag 411

  • Multiple bags are a violation


  • Patterns for everyday use are a violation


  • Novelty bags for every day use are a violation


  • Utilitarian Backpacks, again, violation


  • Your bag should contrast your body shape


Hottest Boots of the Season

  • Over the Knee Boot-Make sure to where them in a Flat, a heel cries Pretty Woman


  • Boot with Buckles-adds edge


  • Slouchy Boot


  • Peep toe lace up
