Wide Width Shoes Tips:Shoe & Boot Styles EveryWoman Should Own a Pair Of
 |
|
Fitness & Walking Shoes |
| |
When you buy athletic shoes, it's important to consider
not only the overall fit, but also what you will be using
them for. Running and walking shoes should have a rocker
sole that helps your foot roll forward naturally. Plenty
of cushion and good traction are especially important in
running shoes. For women with wide feet, finding wide
width athletic shoes is vital, because narrow shoes affect
the way your feet move. Improperly fitting shoes can spoil
your natural balance and cause foot, leg and joint
problems as your body tries to make up for the unnatural
movement of the foot. Having enough room inside your shoes
for the sides of your feet and toes is a must, especially
when it comes to athletic shoes. You may be able to limp
along in cute shoes that don't fit too well when you're at
work or out on a date, but taking the wrong shoes to
aerobics or the basketball court will not only spoil your
fun, but may cause injury.

Black High Heels in Wide Widths |
| |
Classic black pumps are a wardrobe must for every woman,
and fortunately, you can find them in wide widths from
established shoe companies. Any woman with wide feet can
tell you that shopping in a shoe megastore for wide width
shoes is an impossible dream: what we lose in convenience,
we make up for in quality, as manufacturers of wide width
shoes create high quality classic black pumps. There are a
few musts for classic black pumps: they should be leather,
or possibly suede; the heels should not be too low or too
high—one to two inches is the correct height. Finally, the
style of the show should not be trendy—no strange toe box
shapes or odd cutouts are permissible. The point of the
classic black pump is, like all wardrobe staples, that it
can go anywhere, anytime. When you don't know what to
wear, you'll wear these.

Strappy Evening Heels |
| |
Strappy heels are a must-have for evening wear, when pumps
are too staid for a truly elegant look. You can find them
in toeless models, but the classic evening black heels
usually have a toe box and a thin strap across the ankle.
The strap is more than decorative: it helps support the
ankle and stabilize the foot, preventing slips or twists
from an unsupported narrow heel. Especially for women with
wider feet, high heels can put stress on the feet: make
sure you get the best possible fit in your strappy evening
heels. While many women rage against high heels, strappy
evening black heels make your legs look wonderful: pair
them with a long, slit skirt and sheer hose for legs that
go on forever. Keep the look slender by avoiding heels
that are square or chunky: look for stilettos, kitten
style heels or other slim features.

Neutral Colored Pumps |
| |
A pair of neutral colored heels are useful, but you rarely
hear them called sexy, and why is that? The fact is, that
nude or light brown heels look wonderful with pastel skirt
suits, pale evening clothes, or for dressing up casual
clothes like khaki skirts. Neutral colored heels are good
in the evening with jeans: black heels look either too
teenaged or too bad-girl to really pull off a good look. A
pair of heels in nude or brown look grown-up without
seeming stuffy; dressed up without being too dressy. There
may be times when you want a dressier pair of neutral
colored heels: in that case, buy them in suede or dupioni
silk for a drop-dead gorgeous pair of shoes.

Wide Width Casual Flats |
| |
Maybe you live in sneakers, but if you're dressing up just
a wee bit more, other styles of casual flat shoes can perk
up your wardrobe without wearing out your feet. Loafers,
with or without the pennies are great options for jeans or
khaki pants and skirts; they don't have any ankle support
to speak of, but if you get a good pair, you'll find you
wear them again and again on those occasions when you
aren't getting fancy but still want to look nice.
Moccasins are strictly weekend wear, but they're also fun
shoes that look fine with jeans. Look for moccasins with a
good sole: some brands are thin on the bottom and that can
tire your feet and make your back hurt. Other casual shoes
include mary janes, which are ideal for wide width shoes
because of the square toe box and the comfy, forgiving
shape.

Sandals with Wider Widths |
| |
Flat summer sandals are good for the beach, shopping and
even the casual workplace. Sometimes it's hard to find
cute sandals in wide widths: it seems like sandals
manufacturers believe that wide width shoes must have
extra-wide straps, and that can make them look clunky. But
if you go to the online stores that specialize in wide
width shoes, you'll have better luck finding sexy flat
summer sandals that won't make you look like you're
wearing bicycle tires on your feet. Look for flat summer
sandals in shades of brown—from beige to deep sienna—in
leather or suede. If you want extra ankle support, choose
sandals with straps behind the heel instead of mules or
slides.

Plus Size Boots |
| |
Wide width boots are probably the best footwear buy for
women with wide feet. More boot makers are coming out with
wide width boots in so many styles and colors that it's
becoming a real pleasure to shop for them. Look for them
not only in shoe-only stores, but in plus size women's
stores; Silhouettes has a luscious selection of boots and
shoes. Let's talk about boots: sure, you can get them in
leather or suede, but you can also find them in corduroy,
microseude and even velvet. Wear long boots with skirts
either short or long and short boots with jeans. Boots go
with practically everything, but if you're really dressing
up, wear an elegant evening shoe instead. But remember,
for any place but the opera, there is a boot to take you
where you want to go.

A Unique Pair of Shoes |
| |
Every woman has to own at least one pair of unique shoes
that are just for fun. You know the ones: you don't wear
them all the time, but when you do, it's special. When
they finally wear out, you feel despondent until you
replace them. Fabulous shoes have a way of making dressing
up fun: it may be a pair of pink slides, mules with kitten
heels and just a little bit of marabou, or stilettos in
bright red leather. Do you have a fantasy of the perfect
shoe? Chances are, it exists, and it's waiting for you.
You may thrill to a pair of velvety flip-flops in sea
green, or spend an unconscionable large chunk of your
paycheck on the perfect leather boots—we all love shoes!
Life is short—get the shoes you love, and wear them!

Comfortable House Slippers |
| |
For hanging around the house, nothing beats a pair of
comfortable slippers. But please, oh please don't buy your
slippers at the local superstore and then schlep around in
a ratty old robe! If you're going to slouch on the couch,
do it in style with slippers that are nothing short of
adorable. And don't tell me that your wide feet are to
blame: there are loads of cute slippers out there in your
size. We're talking leopard spotted or paisley ballet
slippers in fluffy fabric; slides made of terry cloth in
aquamarine; thongs in plush velvet or bright bandana
fabrics. Look at silk mules for an elegant slipper to
match your new silk robe. Go ahead—stay home today!

Trendy Ballet Flats |
| |
Ballet flats were reintroduced as daytime footwear a
couple of years ago, and they're still wildly popular.
Thanks to that popularity, they're available in more
fabrics, so you can find a pair of trendy ballet flats for
nearly every outfit. By their nature, ballet flats tend to
be somewhat casual, because they have no heels. But they
are adorable in tweed to match solid career separates, and
they come with little black ribbons purely for ornamental
purposes. You can find them in patent leather or nubuck;
with cutouts or as plain jane as you like; there are even
some summertime models in raffia. And, fashion being what
it is, you will even find shoes called trendy ballet
flats—with heels!
