10 Random Shoe Tips That Every Shoe Diva Should Know

Tip #1: Light colored shoes have a slimming effect.


Tip #2: Dressy shoes can be versatile. Wear them with a pair of jeans to dress up your look but still be comfortable.

Tip #3: Metallic shoes (i.e. gold, silver, white gold, platinum) will dress up a casual outfit and enhance the look.

Tip #4: If you get tired of the original color of the shoe, dye it a darker color, and voila, you have a new shoe.

Tip #5: Tall boots can be worn with long skirts, mini skirts, and skinny jeans, but be sure to tuck the jeans into your boots.

Tip #6: Transition your high heeled open toe sandals to the fall and winter by wearing them with hosiery or the new trendy fall socks.

Tip #7: Pointy toe shoes are ideal for women with larger feet. It makes your feet look smaller, because the shape of the shoe takes away from the width of your feet.

Tip #8: If you have thick ankles, do not wear shoes that have a strap that crosses your ankle. Sling backs or closed back shoes are more complementary.

Tip #9: When breaking in a new pair of shoes, wear them around your home doing chores and standing or freeze a sandwich bag with water in your shoes then defrost for 20 minutes.

Tip #10: A chunky platform or wedge style shoe vs. a strappy shoe will make your foot look smaller.
