For Special Occasions

Buying Shoes For That Special Occasion

By: Sophie Wilson

What you wear on your feet defines who you are almost as much as the clothes
that you’re wearing. We’ve seen many examples, some in the media and some in
real life, when the wrong choice of footwear completely ruins the ensemble
of what that person is wearing. More than picking special shoes for special
occasions, shopping for shoes is a matter of picking the right shoe for the
right occasion.

Shoe designers will tell you that shoe fashion has evolved to a point that
you can build your wardrobe around your shoes. And while this is true, it
can lead to faux-pas as bad as picking wrong shoes for the set of clothes
that you’re wearing. This may be especially true for ladies shoes, since
they’re often the most fashion forward. Being aware that the right shoe can
make or break your image, this leads to an increase in the pressure when the
time comes to step into the store and buy a pair of shoes for a more
important occasion.

Buying casual shoes is relatively easy. You pick comfort and practicality
over design, while still, of course, keeping an eye for what’s pretty. But
dress shoes are an entirely different animal and can be much trickier to
pick. In a sense, unless you feel that you’ll be on your feet for a very
long time, comfort is often not an issue. However, you should keep in mind
that the best shoe designers do have comfort in mind when making their
shoes, no matter how uncomfortable they look. But these aren’t for
everyone’s budget, so we won’t be especially focusing on them.

We would advise you to pick your clothes before picking your shoes and then
making sure that they match. Just remember that matching isn’t necessarily a
manner of color. Many people think that blue will go with blue and that
black will go with anything, and they limit their choices to that. But
before being a certain color, a shoe is of a certain style, and that’s the
first thing that you need to look at. Once the style matches the style of
the clothes you’ll be wearing, color will become less of an issue and it
will give you more room to play around. Don’t be afraid of playing around
with color, as that will be what gives that extra flair to your outfit and
it may be the difference between a pretty outfit and something that makes
you stand out.
