Cyclicality of fashion is a phenomenon long known and even expected. Every year more and more fashionable women are inspired by the history and costumes of the past, creating unusual and vivid images based on them.
So, modern fashionable bows easily fit shoes-Oxford, fashionable in the 60-70 years of the last century.
In this article, we'll talk about women's Oxford boots, as well as clothes with which they can be combined.
Oxford boots for women
Traditionally, Oxfords were men's shoes, but having moved to a women's wardrobe, these stylish shoes got so well accustomed to it that in the near future women of fashion are unlikely to refuse them. By the way, originally female Oxfords were called "okfordetty", however, today such a name is almost never found.
Classical Oxfords have several characteristic features, among which the most obvious is a closed lacing in the front. It is this detail that today unites under the name "Oxford" a variety of different models of shoes.
Examples of classic Oxford shoes in the photo will help you to more clearly distinguish their features and differences.

Of course, traditional shoes Oxford for girls was not enough. After all, it's rare that a woman of fashion will agree to limit herself to restrained colors or austere decor in a masculine style. Today you can find models of the most incredible colors, with unusual prints or made from original materials (from lace to metallized leather). Designers are happy to change not only the color of Oxford, but also their texture, shape, heel height . Cutouts and contrasting inserts also make this shoe more bold and original.

Girls of small stature will certainly like Oxford on a wedge. Such models easily compensate for missing several centimeters of growth, while not looking heavy or rough.

With what to wear Oxford boots?
Perhaps the only rule of wearing Oxford - open ankles. Wearing them with skirts in the floor or wide trousers-flared is extremely undesirable, because in this case Oxford often look unattractive.
In addition, wearing a Oxford with evening dresses requires a special talent, which is endowed with not all. If you doubt your abilities, it's better not to take risks and choose more feminine and elegant shoes for the celebration. The exception is unusual dresses of architectural cut and clothes in a futuristic style - but you must agree that such clothes also need to be able to wear with dignity.
In general, Oxfords are quite practical and easily combined with almost all everyday, romantic and business clothes. So, they are perfectly combined with jeans, especially with narrow or shortened models.
A good companion for Oxford will be short skirts, dresses and shorts.
Almost any business suit will happily "accept" Oxford in its company.
In any case, do not forget about the harmony of the image - with tight trousers or skirts wear bulky blouses, tops or jumpers, and with a free "bottom" - a tight-fitting "top".
Girls of small stature are better to pick the same color Oxford and tights (stocking). So you can visually "stretch" the legs, making them longer. But to wear light tights with dark shoes is not necessary - often it looks ugly, but also noticeably flatter legs.
