Empower your chic wardrobe with classic, tough soles – the menswear-inspired shoe. From brogues to loafers, they get a touch of femininity when paired with your female style senses.

Menswear-inspired brogues and loafers are flattering on everyone, thanks to its elongated, rounded tip. Once you’ve found the perfect pair, they could be just as versatile as your favourite black flats. Don’t shy away from doing the girl-meets-boy kind of thing – these masculine shoes are the perfect accompaniment to a flirty ensemble (like a fluttery mini dress or playful midi skirt) if you’re not too fond of the full boyfriend-inspired look. But if you’re into gender-bending styles, consider putting on some perfectly tailored trousers and a crisp shirt or sweater with heeled loafers or wedged lace-ups.
We’ve got 15 styles rounded up in the slideshow above for you to consider. Knock ’em dead!
