Essential Tips For Wearing Wedge Shoes

Wedges are tall heels that are glamorous and comfortable as well. The thicker wider soles with the wedge running through the back to the front are a blessing to the feet and good for balance too. Wedge heels are the perfect summer wear and can also be worn year-round. There are so many types of wedges that you can wear with different outfits and for different occasions. They can be worn with playful casual outfits to sophisticated formal dresses and they always add a bit of style to any outfit you wear. Have a look at some essential tips for wearing wedge shoes so you can get the most out of them. 

A) Wedge Shoes- Selection Parameters

Wedges come in different varieties including heels, sandals, trainers, and boots. To pick the right wedge shoe for you, look at the following parameters.

1. Heel Height

Wedge shoes are available in different heights ranging from almost flat to 4 inches and above. Low-height wedge heels are great for casual wear. Mid-height heels work well with office wear while taller heels look ideal with formal outfits.

2. Wedge Heels Design

If you want a wedge shoe to go with different outfits then go for a simple and minimalist design preferably in neutral shades. Peep toe, pumps, and leather wedge heels are some of the examples. For a signature piece, go for a bespoke design with a unique color choice.

3. Comfort Factor

Wedge shoes are comfortable footwear and easy on the feet. If you have to stand or walk for a considerable period of time, then opt for lower-height wedge heels. For a secure grip, wedge shoes with straps are more viable than the slip-on variety.

4. Wedge Heels Shape

Your body type also influences your choice of wedge shoes. For thicker legs and ankles, chunky wedges women are better and for slim ankles and legs, slimmer heels look optimal. Wearing the opposite type of heels distorts the appearance of your legs/ankles making them thicker/skinnier in the process. Also, chunky wedges look great with maxi skirts and capris that make your ankles appear slimmer.

5. Wedge Shoes Color

Go for a neutral shade of wedges to wear with a range of outfits. If you are planning to buy a wedge for a select event or a specific occasion, then opt for a vibrant or bright color that matches the dress and draws attention to your footwear.
