We choose high-quality model shoes

In order to choose the right shoes with heels so that it is comfortable to walk, adhere to the following rules:

• To get started, pay attention to the sole. If it looks smooth and shiny, then put this option aside immediately, because in the process of wearing such shoes will slip, which means walking in it will be uncomfortable and even dangerous.
• Real heel height. It is worth noting that the higher the hairpin, the more elegant and slimmer the female figure will look. Pay attention to the platform - its height and shape in high-quality shoes will absolutely correspond to the heel, the difference can be no more than 7 cm.
• The quality of the heel. When choosing high-heeled shoes, be sure to check how well the heel is attached. If it can be moved or staggered by hand, then you should refuse to buy this model, since such a heel will very quickly become loose and break. The heel should not be glued, but nailed, with a metal arch support.
• Material. Shoes should be chosen only from natural material. If you doubt the quality, it is better to ask the seller about this.

Personal feelings

Once you have determined that, in principle, the shoes are really high-quality, meet all of the above parameters, do not rush to run to the checkout. Shoe it and find out your personal feelings, because even in very beautiful and suitable-sized shoes it may not be very comfortable. So, let's start trying on, because you need to choose high-heeled shoes to be comfortable, and not to feel like a mermaid from the famous fairy tale:

• Sustainability. In order to be comfortable walking for a long time, you need to learn how to distribute the center of gravity. To do this, you need the correct gait and good posture, as well as physical preparation and stretching. If these parameters are not available, it is better to abandon the heels for a certain time.

Important! The ratio of weight and height of a woman, as well as the presence of diseases of the spine and joints, plays a role in the stability of gait.

• When choosing, the weight of the shoe also matters, since a high-quality pair will be very different from a fake. Even if the shoe looks massive - its weight should not be large. Put on your shoes and raise your shod leg for 10 seconds. If you succeeded easily, then this model can be bought, if not, continue the search.
• If during fitting you find it difficult to stand up or you feel discomfort in the calf area, then the height of the stud is unacceptable. It is also recommended to lean forward: if there is a feeling of loss of balance, then the toes of the shoes are absolutely not suitable.If the legs begin to break out or in, there will be a risk of damaging the legs when worn.

Important! You can also try to sit down. A sense of balance and convenience will talk about the stability of the model.

• It is important to determine that in the process of walking nothing presses you and does not bother you - you should not think that in the future these feelings will disappear - on the contrary, the discomfort will only intensify.
• The size. When buying stilettos, you should choose a slightly different size than your regular shoes. For example, if the height of the heel is 5–9 cm, shoes need to be bought half the size larger, and at a height of 10–15 cm — one size, and so on. This stock is needed so that the legs while walking are beautiful and slender.
• Any stilettos have a certain heel shape that looks different. For example, thin and thin legs will not look good on very high stilettos. On the contrary - full legs do not like miniature heels. Shoes with a massive wide heel and various decorations are ideal for them.
• It is worth paying attention to the fact that every 2 cm of the heel increases the pressure on the fingers by 25% - do not forget to take this fact into account.

Important! To learn how to walk stilettos beautifully, wear a tight tight skirt and walk in it with heels.

Basic principles for selecting shoes for a dress

It is important that all the details of your outfit are organically combined with each other. And shoes play by no means the last role, because the color, the shape, and the heel - all this can be different, so one model can fit a specific dress, but it will not be combined with another at all.

We make the right decision:

• For dresses made of airy, lightweight fabrics, more open shoes will be required. That is, for outfits made of chiffon or batiste, the best option would be stiletto sandals with thin straps. And pointed shoes with a thin high heel are absolutely unacceptable for dresses made of heavy fabric.
• The denser the dress fabric, the more closed the shoes. For everyday and business dresses made of wool or dense silk, shoes with a closed toe are suitable.
• Heel should also be chosen depending on the density of the fabric. With its growth, the heel should become more stable. Thin stiletto heels are best replaced with high, but more stable cone-shaped heels, “columns” or “shot glasses”.
• With a long dress on the floor, it is better not to wear shoes with a very thin stiletto heel, since there is a chance to catch the hem of the dress with it.
• The shape of the toe is more dependent on fashion. However, even the most fashionable shoes should be correctly combined with the selected outfit.

Important! If you are having difficulty choosing a specific shoe option, you can recall the universal one, suitable for almost any dress (with the exception of white) - black pumps with a small heel.

Selection of shoes to the color of the dress

In addition to style, you need to learn how to choose the color of shoes for the outfit. For a harmonious combination of shoes and dress color, there are such rules:

• Clothing and shoes should be either the same color or similar shades. Combinations in the same tone or with slightly different saturation can be equally successful. For example, what shoes should I put on with a blue dress? Rather blue, but beige will look better with brown.
• The colors of shoes and dresses may be different, but combined. So, brown shoes can be worn under a green dress, however, in this case it is necessary to have an excellent taste, because combining beige shoes with pink and burgundy with a red dress is a bad manners.
• The use of shoes in neutral shades with clothing in white, black or gray. Usually they combine well with any primary colors and shades. You can wear black shoes with a white dress, but then some black element will be required in the dress, it can be beads or earrings, a handbag or a hair clip in your hair.
• If the dress is a neutral color, then, in principle, shoes of any color will suit him.

Important! So that when buying shoes that should ideally fit any particular dress, not to make a mistake with the choice, you should do the fitting in it.
