7 Essential Shoes for the Dynamic Type 3 Woman

Eye-catching shoes to complete your Type 3 outfit every day!

What does your shoe collection look like?

As a practical, Type 3 woman, you might only have a few pairs. Or maybe you have a substantial amount in your closet, full of rich and dynamic shades.

Whatever the case may be, I know how helpful it can be to have great shoes that complete my outfit when I get ready for the day. I need something that I know will look incredible and be quick and easy to pick out.

Here are 7 essential shoes that I think every Type 3 woman needs!

1: The Light Neutral Pump

Nude, wheat, or dirty gold. Any of these three neutrals in a pump is a must-have for your Type 3 wardrobe. Wear them with your favorite dress (they will go with all of them) or dress up your favorite pair of jeans. There are endless options with a neutral pump like this!

Scared of the “high heel”? Try going with a mid-heel or a kitten heel. You can move much more swiftly in a small heel anyway!

2: The Leopard Shoe

When you see leopard print, think of it as an exciting neutral. It will go with nearly everything in your wardrobe and will take your level of dress up a notch.

I like pairing my leopard flats with jeans and a nice solid sweater or blouse. But shoes like this can even be dressy enough for a dress or skirt.

3: Riding Boots

Riding boots are super versatile and fantastic to wear with skinny jeans, leggings, and even a dress. My favorite color of riding boots is cognac, but dark brown is also great and will go with a lot.

I like a riding boot with a low heel for moving swiftly and getting stuff done. This type of boot is also great for cooler weather.

4: Ankle Boots

Ankle boots are super popular right now, and that’s because they are simply fantastic! I have several pairs of ankle boots and wear them with dresses, jeans, and leggings. I also love that they can be worn pretty much all year long.

Look for embellishments that make your ankle boot more dynamic like fringe, zippers, or buckles.

5: Textured Sneakers or Rich Athletic Shoes

As a Type 3, you’re probably on the go a lot, and for that reason, you need shoes that fit your lifestyle! I love the Type 3 athletic shoes that I wear all the time. I’m on my feet a lot with my twin girls and enjoy the support and style of a good sneaker!

6: Rich Colored Shoe

A great way to rock your Type 3 style is in footwear that isn’t predictable. Bringing rich color into your footwear can be a lot of fun and can take your look from being great to being a WOW!

If you are hesitant, start with a darker color that may go with more like burgundy, dark green, or peacock blue.

7: Strapped Sandals

Sandals with straps will bring in the different angles and texture we are looking for as a Type 3. You can do high heels, wedge heels, or flats. The more straps, the better!
