4 Ways to Match High Heels with your Clothes
Block heels
Done quite chunky, block heels are the perfect transition back to the mighty heel. An ultimate marriage of comfort, class and sheer wearability, chunky clogs are in this season although they can be a little tricky to pair.
Due to their nature, clogs will attract attention more than anything else in your attire so be sure to keep the rest of the ensemble light. Steering clear of full-length pants, dresses or skirts will help you avoid looking heavy or clumsy with this choice of footwear.
Pants that are one coloured and a little higher up on the hemming will really bring out the magic of the block heels.
Kitten heels
Another smooth slide from the reigning comfort of home slides to street fashion is the effervescent kitten heel. For every Marilyn Monroe comfortable in the highest of high heels, is an Audrey Hepburn perfectly happy in one-to-two-inch kittens.
Kittens are versatile and come in trendy styles like mules, pumps, sandals and even boots. Kitten heels make for comfortable and stylish workwear and go with pantsuits and dresses equally well, transitioning well from morning to evening.
Conservative fashion loyalists swear by the pump kittens, but other styles like sling backs, mules and sandals work just as well for both office and evening affairs.
Wedges
Platform heels have zoomed back into our post pandemic lives straight from the '90s and we could not be happier. Safer than stilettos and more visually dramatic than kittens, platforms give you height and come in sandal and even lace up sneaker forms. Pair wedged peep toes with summer dresses to give your attire a youthful sheen or wear them with ciggy pants in sandal form for a more professional set-up.
Lace up sneakers can be worn with skirts and tops as well, to give it an all-over casual feel. The wedges only keep things comfortable for your arches, it is your choice of shoe that does the actual talking.
Stilettos
Go gutsy or go out with this towering number on your toes. Stilettos are fun, and they scream of happier pasts and optimistic futures. Style demands the ultimate sacrifice of comfort and the style aficionados happily oblige.
Whether to make a powerful statement in the boardroom or to stake out your limelight on the dance floor, stilettoes occupy top space in a shoe lover's closet.
Wear them with saris for weddings, with evening dresses, or simply swap them out for sneakers or pumps on jeans for when you're feeling that little bit extra. Stilettos are commonly taken out on choice occasions but there's no rule it cannot come out on a regular, happy day.
