Everyone has their own preferences and opinions, but many women have decided to stop trying to love high heels and instead, wear flat shoes. Most people remember the first time they ever wore high heels, because they likely fell over, almost tripped, or wobbled around the room wondering why they were torturing themselves. Some people move away from the wobbly aspect of heels and truly enjoy wearing them, but most would rather have flats that were just as pretty.
Comfort
Podiatrists and doctors agree that high heels aren’t the best choice of shoe for women because the foot isn’t made to have the heels of the feet be so much higher than the ball of the foot. Even so, most people still prefer them or feel they must wear them in order to be more presentable for work.
Flats have become popular because they are more comfortable to wear for long periods of time and look better now than ever before. However, it is still important to consider arch support when deciding on the right dress shoe.
Styles
It is true that flats aren’t as interesting to look at as heels, so you’ll want to consider the various styles available. Consider fashionable colors, texture and lush material to help jazz up the simplicity of the flat shoes. Many manufacturers are placing accents on their flats, such as gems, bows, straps and buckles to add more interest to the shoe without going overboard. Consider looking for chic options rather than quirky or “odd” ones to find the right effect.
Learn To Dress Them Up
Most people prefer to jazz up their outfits when wearing flats, because of the simple style they offer. Ultra-feminine options can really make your shoes pop, so consider layers, flared or bell sleeves, wrap tops and more.
What To Wear
When considering your wardrobe, make sure you have options available in skirts and pants. Most women prefer to wear flats with short skirts, but you may not want to wear skirts all year long.
Because flats can make your legs appear shorter than normal, wearing skirts with a shorter hemline can offer a visual lengthening of the legs.
Pants, especially Capri pants, work well with flats, though you want to make sure the pants aren’t too long or too short.
Flat shoes for women have always been popular with some and now more people are choosing them. They are much more comfortable than heels and you can still look chic.
