Last week, I showed you what Lauren Conrad considers the six shoes every lady’s closet needs. I agree wholeheartedly with her choices, but I think our gal pal left out a few, so here are six more types of shoes I consider to be essentials 🙂

Dressy Flip Flops: I feel like flip flops have such a bad reputation for being lazy and sloppy. But I am so not a fan of heels in the heat, or flats that get sweaty, so I rely on flip flops in the summer. And there are alternatives to rubber ones. A neutral, but classy pair like these will go with just about everything.

Wellies: Unless you’re one of the lucky ones who lives in one of those climates where you never have to worry about rain (and I guess LC is in Southern California…), rain boots are a must. I can’t think of a pair of shoes I’ve gotten more use out of living in Boston.

Comfy Heels: Yes, every girl needs a striking pair of comfy nine-inchers for nights out on the town, but how often do you want to wear those to work? Or a nice dinner with your family? A low heel, or even some higher ones with good ankle support, are priceless in my book!

Boat Shoes: I love my Sperrys. I can’t remember how I ever lived without them. So preppy, comfortable, and versatile. And hello– waterproof!!

Mary Janes: Another more work- or class-sensible alternative to your average flashy high heels. Plus they are absolutely timeless.

Ugg Boots: I don’t care how ugly or trendy you think these are, I will come right out and say that I. LOVE. UGGS. Have since high school. I don’t wear them with mini skirts or in the summer or while hanging out with Snooki. I wear them when I need something warm and comfy on my feet, and when I need shoes to transport to work in before putting on a less-comfortable alternative.

I’d also normally include TOMS in this list, but unfortunately Zappos doesn’t sell them yet! What other shoes do you need in your closet??
