How your shoes reflect your personality

Posted on 10 August 2017

Did you know you can get to know someone without even talking to them? Just by shoe-gazing or simply taking a look at their shoes! Shoes can be used as a cue to someone's personality or even his/her mood on that day. A study published in the Journal of Research in Personality in 2012 showed that 90 percent of people's personality is reflected in their choice of shoes. So, get ready to have more shoe-contact after reading this one! \n A woman can have a wide range of shoes, but like most fashion and beauty items, which shoes you wear can say a lot about who you are as a person and more likely to reflect your daily mood. For example, how you would feel much different wearing heels than wearing sneakers or vice versa. Here is a fun look at what your shoes might tell about your personality:

Heels

If there is one word to sum up your personality in one, it must be confident. Heels are more than just shoes to make you stand out of the crowd. Yet, different types of heels can communicate different things about someone's personality and here are some of them:

Pumps

Lady boss coming through! Admit it, you like to be the controlling one and you fight for a leadership role. Others like to rely on you and you will never disspoint them as you take care of business like it is a do or die. Because of your strong personality and competitiveness, you can be pretty intimidating to those who can't keep up with your pace. Your self-confidence in terms of appearance is very high and you absolutely cannot be bothered to be the center of attention.

Platforms

You are probably a social media savvy, updated with Facebook, Instagram, and other social media “platforms”. You like to update your own page frequently as well. When there is one person to take control of the situation, it would definitely be you. You are quick on your feet, decisive, self-assured, and somehow often be the person in charge. People feel comfortable when the responsibility is in your hands as they know you are that trusted and responsible gal.

Stilletos

You have the spirit of a business woman and take your job very seriously. Even though your work life is very professional, you are still a person that likes to have fun. When it comes to career, you are extremely hardworking. Giving up on work will never come up in your dictionary. Maintaining work-life balance is what you're good at and your high pointed stilletos are what keep you focused in life.

Kitten heels

You are one true old soul, honey. You are that one lady with a knitted dark red sweater paired with pleated emerald midi skirt and stuck in the 50's era, drowning in your collection of vintage goods. Your friends would ask you to go out, but you would rather stay home, cuddle inside your knitted blanket, and watch ‘Grease'. You like to play with your polaroid camera and you just can't seem to get enough of playing some artist like Sam Cooke on your vinyl record player. Twitter and Facebook are completely out of the time where you live in. Oh, and you dig polka dots and cats, too.

Boots

“Relax, girls!” is what you tell a lot of your friends quite often. You are that laid-back-gal who don't worry about things that much. ”Go with the flow and see where life takes you” is your motto. Your boots make you feel good and confident. It can also be the reason why people just can't seem to walk all over you. When it comes to chasing your ambitions, you are that determined daredevil that goes for it without stopping. You are tough and strong-minded. In a discussion, you have a strong opinion and you arenot afraid to stand up for it. You are reserved, have the preference to do things on your own and rely on yourself only.

Sporty sneakers

You are social, sporty, confident, goal-oriented and organized. The most typical trait, however, is that you are always caught up in your busy schedule. Your day to day schedule is so packed and you're always on the go. But, the great thing after all is you are good at multitasking, like to arrange things, and can always take care of everything. Sleep is the only time you are taking a break. Being comfortable in what you wear is your only reason in choosing shoes rather than only to please someone else's eyes.

Flats

So, you just can't stand cute things, right? If you're at the mall with your friends, they'll probably lose you out of sight because you're distracted by that cute Hello Kitty shop. If someone walks by with a little puppy, you can probably not stand to pet the cute thing. You're a sweet and girly girl to the fullest, love anything pink, anything with poms. Men perceive you as sweet, and you wear whatever you feel comfortable in. Happiness is all that matters to you and your outgoing personality has you laughing until you cry.
