Choosing the right heel for that GREAT outfit...

It is a well known fact that the right pair of high heels can really pull an outfit together, and the wrong pair can make your outfit look, well, wrong. There are several things to consider when you are choosing the perfect pair of shoes, and this article will take a look at these factors, and give you tips to help ensure that you, your outfit, and your heels, look fabulous.

There are many different types of high heels, including pumps, platforms, sandals, and high heeled boots, all of them sexy, and all of them designed to produce a different effect. Pumps are the most classic high heel shoes, and women have been wearing them for years to make themselves look taller, and to make their legs look longer and leaner as well. Pumps work well for professional events, as well as events like weddings, and family reunions where a less ostentatious style is best.

Platform shoes are perfect for women who want to feel taller and make their legs look longer. The higher the platform, though, the more difficult it will be to walk in the shoes, at least initially, so allow yourself some extra time to break them in, so to speak. Platforms are best for fun, trendy outfits, like mini dresses, short skirts, and even jeans.

Sandals with heels are very, very, sexy, and very versatile as well. Most sandals, including flip flops, which fall under the category of high heeled shoes, have small, delicate heels, called kitten heels, which gives them a look that can be dressed up or dressed down, depending on your preferences.

A unique high heel look can be achieved by wearing high heel boots. Whether thigh high or stiletto, the right pair of high heel boots looks perfect under medium length or short skirts, jeans, or dress pants.

When you are choosing high heel shoes, it is a good idea to keep the occasion for which they will be worn in mind. If the event or occasion requires a lot of walking or running or dancing, a lower heeled high heel is probably best. While you are at it, do not forget to experiment with your color choices. Basic black always works, but do not underestimate the sex appeal of a red, or other brightly hued shoe, either.

Above all, remember that a sexy high heel only works if you know how to work it. Be confident, have fun, and make sure to choose shoes that are comfortable as well as aesthetically pleasing, and you will look your best in whichever pair of high heeled shoes you choose.
