Matching Outfits...
There is one peculiarity of wedge shoes. Women can make them look formal or casual or trendy, depending upon the dresses they pair them up with. For instance, if wedge sandals of one inch heel are paired with jeans, they give a very cool, casual look. However, if wedge heel shoes with heels of three inches or more are worn with free-flowing one-piece dresses or skirts, along with some good jewelry, they are quite apt to be worn at a party!
There is one secret to wearing these shoes. Women should always pair them up with loose-fitting and free-flowing outfits such as boot cut jeans, wide leg pants, wrap dresses, gypsy-style dresses, loose skirts, etc, as they make all such outfits look very attractive and trendy! However, avoid wearing them with skinny jeans, tight pants and narrow, pencil skirts as wedges add weight to the foot and hence do not suit such styles of dressing.
