You're probably reading this because you need an adult-like shoe to wear to your new job. I know it's a rude wake-up call when you've been rocking slides and sneakers all summer, but business casual shoes have become more realistic in recent years.

So don't go overboard with the shoe-buying yet, you probably have a similar shoe to the ones below in your closet. Here are four types of shoes you can wear to the office this summer.


1. Simple Flats.

Women's Grandeur Huarache Flat- $39.99- Famous Footwear

Flats are great for busy mornings when you need a quick shoe to hurry out the door. What we love about these shoes is the wicker-pattern throughout that makes them unique. This shoe also has grip soles, which are ideal for rainy days. You can choose to wear socks with these or rock them without, your choice.

2. The Kitten Heel Sandal.

East 5th's Oyster Women's Flat Sandals- $19- JCPenney

Although you're giving heel and toe with this shoe, you're also getting a little bit of height, which is a professional shoe trait. The sturdy band that holds the toe thong also covers the skin of the foot. A shoe like this is best worn in a business casual environment with pants, capris or a long dress.

3. The Strappy Heel.


Taylor Natural Suede Ankle Strap Heels- $31- LuLu's

You can wear a strappy sandal like this with almost any outfit, from wide-leg pants to jumpsuits. Strappy sandals in skin tone colors add length to your legs, making them appear longer and slimmer. These strappy heels, in particular, are made with vegan leather, so you are saving the animals and looking cute all at once.


4. The Wedge with an Edge.

So Perch Women's Wedges-$34.99- Kohl's

This high heeled wedge is perfect for a formal work event. The shoe is vented at the top, which serves as an outlet for any extra moisture. They are padded on the inside for extra comfort, and the ankle straps will keep your foot nice and secure. If your dress code requires sandals with straps, this is an adorable way to adhere to that rule.


Hopefully, you can go shopping in your closet now. What are your favorite work shoes? Let us know below!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead.

You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
