What Shoes To Wear To A Summer Wedding
You’re going to spend a lot of your time on your feet so you want to make sure you’re wearing something comfy that you won’t regret wearing through the day. If you don’t wear heels very often, keep in mind these tips and tricks when shopping for heels:
- Make sure you’ve got a padded insole – the sole of your foot is where the aching will start so any extra padding will help reduce this.
- Block heels are key for comfort and easy to walk in – especially if you’re new to wearing heels opt for something with a mid block heel.
- Don’t be scared of colour – you can always rely on neutrals to match with your outfit but don’t be scared about adding a pop of colour. Bold, bright colours can brighten up a simple design and also highlight bright hues already in your outfit.
