The word shoes follow immediately by the word comfort. It is very important to wear shoes according to the place you are visiting and the hours you would be in that place and see your comfort the shoe gives. A shoe no matter how spectacular the style, is worthless if it does not fit. Too high heels that catch in carpets or small heels spoil your confidence and image.
Points to remember of the various rules about buying shoes: -
1) Avoid heavy shoes: a heavy shoe makes thin legs look like toothpicks and exaggerates the bulk of heavy legs.
2) Heel: a medium heel shoe makes you appear taller and nearer the fashion figure. Your legs seem more attractive because the instep of the foot has a graceful light contraction of the calf muscle caused by the raised heel.
3) Colour: a contrasting colour whether bright, light or very dark makes your feet a focal point. This breaks a unified line and tends to make a person seem shorter. If you decide to make your shoes skin coloured(beige) which can blend with any unusual colours.
4) The lighter the shoes and simpler the style, the slimmer and more graceful your legs will seem.
5) When creating a look let your shoes say the same as your garment, like don’t team heavy shoes with a soft dress or a dressy shoe with a serious wool tweed suit. Balance them.
6) Selecting your shoes according to the climate is very essential for example boots are meant for cold weather. Carry an extra pair of shoes to wear in the office on rainy days.
7) Experiment with shoes for different outfits you might come up with a stunning look. The final word for shoe selection would be simplicity.
