The Best Shoes for Long Skirts and Dresses,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
While there's no doubt that short skirts are sexy, long skirts can be sexy and so much more: romantic, polished,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], classic,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], laid-back, or even powerful. But whatever look you're trying to pull together, pairing the wrong shoes with a long skirt can blow the whole effect.
Fortunately, the shoe rules for long skirts are much simpler than you might think. In fact, it's really just a balancing act.
Longer skirts and dresses cover the majority of your body. To create a look that is flowing rather than broken or unbalanced,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], your footwear will need to accomplish one of the following three things:
1. Visually become a part of the skirt.
Think of tall boots that are covered by the hemline of the skirt
2. Add length or height beneath the hemline of the skirt,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], so that the skirt will seem shorter, or your legs will seem longer.
High heels that show a lot of skin work well for this.
3. Work with the lines of the skirt to create a look that is balanced.
For example, a chunky wedge heel will work with a fuller skirt, but might be too clunky for a long fitted skirt.
