Sometimes, we know what to wear to events, but shoes are a headache. We get stuck on what colour of shoe will blend with a dress, what brand will make a statement, or the kind of shoe that suits any event. According to psychology, people first notice your shoe in an outfit. We understand how our choice of shoes can affect our outlook at events, so we must pay utmost attention to our selection of shoes.
Here are five questions to ask when picking out a shoe for an event:
- What kind of event is it?
Is it a wedding party or business lunch? A beach or a walk in the park? For a wedding party, you don’t want to wear strap-on sandals with your dress; you want to pick out beautiful pencil heels to compliment your dress. You want to do a comfortable heel shoe or loafers with your pants or skirts for a business lunch. And if you are satisfied with heels, why not?
If you are taking a walk in the park, you want to wear sneakers to help you walk properly. And for a beach hangout, a pair of flops works perfectly. Don’t go out without researching what and what not to wear.
2. What is the colour of my dress?
Many people don’t know this, but the colour wheel can guide you in colour combinations. Use the complementary colours as a reference point. Instead of doing the usual monochrome look (black and white), you can consider various ideas. For those that love to stand out at events, you can consider wearing a greenshoe on a yellow dress- absolutely stunning. You can consider mixing neutral colors like black, navy blue, white, and black for those who love cool colors.
For the men, consider picking a colour that matches your belts and go ahead to exude confidence. For example, a brown belt on a solid brown shoe as this one: Click here
3. What kind of outfit am I wearing?
You can consider a pair of sneakers for really short dresses if you want to show some legs. You can also consider heels- this depends on your style. Stiletto heels blend well with pencil skirts and pants; get some slay to work.
There’s a kind of confidence that comes from women who wear boots. You can wear your shoes with a pair of straight jeans or bootcut for lovers of boots. For athletes, wear athletic shoes designed for the kind of sport you play.
4. Am I comfortable?
Apart from style and trying to make a statement, comfort should come first in picking a shoe. Ask yourself if you are comfortable wearing that color or wearing that high heel. You don’t want to slip and fall while walking on the red carpet. Before dressing to slay, dress for comfort. Don’t forget to research the kind of shoes that will suit your legs and body type. Then post some pictures on the gram.
