The Black Pump

Every girl needs a pair of black pumps.  They're classy and can carry you to work, drinks, dinner and parties.  They are the all time must have, perfect pair of shoes.

Try a rounder toe.  If you're going to be walking, standing or wearing these for awhile (say all day at work) this slightly rounder toe will not squash your feet quite so much.

   Try this adorable Steve Madden pump.  It has the rounded toe and a moderately  high heel.  It's also on sale- it's only $55.97.

Add visual interest.  A basic black heel doesn't have to be super basic.  The soft details on these shoes really make them special.

This shoe can easily be a classic black pump even though it isn't plan. The buckle adds interest but the shoe is still very work appropriate and it can still easily transition into nighttime.

The tie detail in this shoe gives it the extra visual interest without taking away from the classic nature of the pump. This shoe is not for every office, it's not conservative enough for someone in the financial field. If you work in a more creative office this is the perfect shoe for you.

And finally the classic. The pointed toe, black stiletto. This is an absolute necessity for every women's wardrobe. I would not recommend it for long walks though.

This is a classic (and reported comfy) shoe that you will get years of use out of. It's the ultimate of shoe basics.

So get a jump start on your new and fabulous shoe wardrobe with one or all of these pairs.
