How to Look at Shoe Styles when Shopping

Can a Woman have too may pairs of shoes? I think not.  However, you can't afford everything, so here is some advice to help you choose what to put in your closet and what to just lust after in the shop.
Platform Soles
  Platform Soles are an absolute godsend for any woman.  They allow you the sky scraping height o a serious stiletto, but with some much needed added comfort.  Here's how it works:  the extra height given by the platform sole of the shoe is taken off the ridiculous height of the heel. 

Straps
Ankle straps may add security when you're out and about, but they have a horrible habit of turning your lovely ankles into thick, and chunky.  An ankle strap is perfectly great as long as it's at the top of your foot, well under your ankle.  No higher!!!
Boots
High top boots for winter is an essential part of your wardrobe and it's easy to dress up or down.  Make sure the length finishes just below your knee.  Any high could look trashy and any lower will make you look short.

Pumps
Nude colored pumps are an invaluable addition to any wardrobe.  They can be worn with any outfit to any occasion and have serious leg lengthening capabilities.  A pair of black pumps are also a wardrobe staples, look for patent ones rather than matte black leather.  The shiny leather is ultra glamorous and very practical.

Wedges
Wedges are the answer to every woman's prayers.  They give you the height and the glamour of high heels, but with stability of a little kitten heel.  If you have wobbly ankles and are really nervous about wearing heels, Wedges would be the heel for you to have in your closet.




So, ladies when choosing you next pair of shoes remember what I've said here....Great Shoe Shopping

ForThe Girls in Your Office.. One of my saying that I saw and I try to live by:  If I am reinventing my business life, I will also reinvent how I dress for it....and it does not always have to cost a fortune to look good. What you wear speaks volumes about you to your current and prospective employers. Dressing 101 Ill-fitting or too-tight clothes and casual ensembles make you look lazy or sloppy. "If you are wearing a blouse, absolutely no cleavage, and if there is any gap between the buttons, put on a shell underneath. A few basic office fashions for women: a black suit, black dress, a gray skirt and a few solid colored shirts. Appropriate casual dress includes "blazers, sports jackets, collared shirts, pressed trousers, casual skirts(nothing above the knee) and smart casual trousers, and  sweaters.
