Pick Out Right Shoes For All Occasions |

As many women would proclaim: Never underestimate the important role of shoes in creating your overall style and presentation.
Choosing the best pairs of shoes to match you and your outfit can only accentuate your style, while a wrong match could undermine your appeal.
Learn to pick out a variety of versatile and comfortable footwear with these simple guidelines:
- The best time for shoe-shopping is in the middle of the day: Your feet tend to "shrink" in the morning and "swell" in the evening.
- Assess the colours in your wardrobe and your dressing style, and look for shoes that go well with most of them.
- Try out shoes on both feet, as one may be slightly bigger or smaller than the other.
- Your shoes should fit well. Leave a half-inch gap between your big toe and the end of the shoe. There should be sufficient width and enough room to wriggle your toes.
- Be kind to your feet. Many have sacrificed comfort for a beautiful pair of stilettos and in turn suffered much pain, discomposure and embarrassment.
- Invest in leather shoes for comfort and durability.
- For ladies, T-bar shoes have the unfortunate function of making legs look shorter and thicker. To avoid unless you have slim, long legs!
- The colour of your shoes should be of the same shade, or darker than the hemline of your outfit.
Wearing the right pair of shoes complete your outfit. So, be sure to select your shoes well and invest in quality and comfort as a good pair will take you places!
