Tips For Wearing Wedge Boots

Monday, September 12th, 2011

If you like your boots with an extra height, then a pair of wedge boots is the perfect fit for you. The wedge boot, much like its close relative the ankle boot, is a chic and classy footwear that should be a staple in any woman’s shoe collection.

Wedge boots are normally worn during the winter season to stay fashionable despite the cold weather and the icy snow. However, you can always rock a pair of wedge boots, winter or not. Unlike other types of boots, wedge boots are more comfortable and thus, easier to walk in. Just don’t forget to consider the following guidelines when wearing boots with a little bit of oomph:

1. Never wear wedge boots with a pair of boot cut jeans. It’s an old look you do not want to revive.

2. If you choose to wear knee high wedge boots, avoid flared skirts because this can give you a bulky look. Instead, wear it with a pair of dark colored leggings and something loose for your top, like a tunic. If you feel that knee high wedge boots are too heavy for you, then try wedge ankle boots instead.

3. If you are gunning for the casual and edgy but not too over-the-top look, don a pair of black suede or leather wedge boots together with your straight cut jeans. For the top, an oversized sweater topped with leather jacket will complete the look.

4. Another great way to wear wedge boots is to wear it with patterned black tights and a mini skirt. Accessorize with wooly hats and scarves.

5. A pair of cuffed or laced up wedge boots is also a good way to glam up an otherwise ordinary outfit. Going to do some grocery shopping? Shop in style with a pair of bright colored wedge boots.
