Choosing the right footwear

We all are fond of flaunting our clothes and make up but many of us are not really happy about the shoes we wear. Shoes that look fabulous at the showroom at times don’t look that great on our feet. But as they say take it from the one who has learnt the harder way! If you want your feet to look as sexy as the shoes they are wearing then it is essential for you to find the styles that actually flatter your feet. So, here are a few things to be kept in mind that will make your feet look as sexy as the footwear they are in.

The first tip is to hide the flaws of your feet. If you hate the look of your toes, opt for pumps with closed toe or try peep-toe pump that are less revealing and covers the part you hate the most with style. If you have rough heels then it won’t look good in a backless sandal. Try shoes with open toes that cover the back of your feet.

Tip two is to flaunt what is best about your feet. A D’Orsay pump will highlight the graceful curves of higher arches, ankle straps will highlight a well shaped ankle and if you have a perfect set of nails then try slides. But if you are one of those who hate every bit of your feet then try shoes that cover your feet as much as possible.

A major point you must keep in mind while shopping for shoes is the shoe size. Sexy feet need sexy shoes that fit perfectly- neither oversized nor shorter than feet size. Even the sexiest shoe will look horrendous if they are hanging over the edge of the handle. Say for example a foot that has been squeezed into a pump that is too tight will give the impression that your feet are too big for your shoes to fit it. Same for ankle straps. If they are cutting into your skin then avoid wearing them or loosen them a bit. It looks more ugly than graceful if shoes don’t fit well.

Almost every shoe and every foot can benefit by just putting them with their perfect match. The right shoe with the right feet. This may look ugly feet look nice and pretty feet look gorgeous. A hint of sparkly hardware, a crystal or a stud or two on the upper portion of the shoe may make your shoe look more stunning. For those who don’t wear high heels, it’s a pity as the sexiest of shoes are the ones with high heels!

Flats may look good but not as gorgeous and feminine as heels.

So pick the right shoe and make you feet look as gorgeous as the rest of you!

How to create a classic wardrobe!

Having a wardrobe that contains everything needed for every occasion is something every woman dreams about. If you think you can immediately have one by just out to the stores and picking some pieces here and there, you are highly mistaken. Money can’t buy you timeless classic pieces as well as the trendy ones just in one season just because you can spend bucks at your own disposal. Creating a wardrobe that spells magic every time you open it is something that needs a fine knowledge of the colors that never die and are common in different seasons as well. So here are some fashion tips that’ll help you create a wardrobe you’ve always dreamt of.

There are some colors that never go out of style. The importance of having these hues is that they can form a base for you to work around while you add some trendy pieces to your wardrobe. This will save you from reinventing your wardrobe every season. It is essential to find the right kind of piece that suits your body type which again is something you don’t find easily. For example, not all the shirts would suit you well or are created equal but having some makes are important.

Alright here are some ‘must-have’ clothing and accessories that are basics towards having a dream-wardrobe. The most important thing to be kept in mind regarding these is that they should be of high quality and fit you perfectly well. Also avoid wearing some shades only because you are like them. Like no wearing whites if you look best in wine. Yes, you may have to spend a few extra bucks for each of these but it is an investment that last for many seasons to come.

This is what you can for winters and autumn:

• Long sleeved white button shirt – the one with vertical self printed lines or a plain one suits the best. There are some self embroidered ones also available.

• A beautifully tailored jacket - burnt sienna is an evergreen color for winters

• Cashmere sweater in soft shades of either blue, greens or fuchsia

• Woven dress pants are something you can wear every season

• A beautifully crafted tote in a color that is missing from your collection

• Tall leather boots – if you are tall then pick ones with just one and a half inch heel.

• Having a set of pearl earrings and necklace makes up for a perfect accessory for winters

• The knee length, good fit formal dress you can wear for dinner is a must have.

Midnight blues, charcoal, ivory, evergreen and brown are some never-dying fall/winter colors.

Lastly supplement all of this with accessories matching these shades or contrasting them. Remember accessories are a wonderful way to add that extra zing to your apparels and should not be left out.

Pumps, in their most classic form, are lightweight, strapless shoes. Pumps have a seamless front upper that is cut closer to the toes than the top of the foot.

The pump has become almost a generic word for shoe but officially relates to a low-cut shoe that surrounds the foot without fastenings, cut away to reveal the arches and sides of the foot.

Saga of Pumps:
Though the pump has been a staple in women’s shoes for centuries, it was originally worn without a heel by men and servants in the 1500s - then they were called a “pompes.”

Eventually, bows and other additions, as well as heels were added to pumps, making them more feminine than the flat, plain shoes from which they originated. Available in versions with next to no heel, as well as six inch stilettos and beyond, pumps today are ultimately feminine.

Colors of pumps:
A great pair of navy pumps should be indispensable in EVERY woman’s wardrobe. Black is basic but navy is classic. Bright colors are always great to give your darker fall and winter wardrobe a pop.
