25 Simple Rules For a Life Spent in Heels in 2018

Play with proportion and wear knee-high heeled boots with midi skirts. This trick will elongate your frame, especially when you stick to neutral tones that tend to "flow" into one another.

Kitten heels are one of 2018's most popular silhouettes, so draw attention to the pair you picked by coordinating your accessories around your footwear.

Don't second guess wearing your shiny shoes to the office if you've got a more laidback dress code. You'll look completely professional, and actually, completely confident, when you decide to pair your pencil skirt and modest blouse with something standout.

The resurgence of polka dots doesn't only apply to clothes, but accessories too. Don't forget that a pair of heels, no matter how tall, command attention, so wear the patterns everyone's crazy about on your feet.

Look for buckled details when shopping for neutral colorways. This takes a classic pump to the next level this season, classifying your look as "very 2018."

Your embellished heels — whether they're adorned with pearls, gemstones, or sequins — should add a playful, girlie twist to your look. Shop an elegant mule in a simple color for something that'll go with everything from animal print pants to jeans and a tee.

If you're looking for something that adds just a bit of height to your outfit, trust a bootie to provide you with full coverage and support. When you're rocking a simple outfit like jeans and a blazer, there's no reason to feel as if you're pulling off a balancing act.

Glitter shoes are definitely in, but the options don't end there. Add dimension to your outfit by choosing a pair of satin heels or ones finished with furry details. This is a very easy way to get playful with your look.

Show big love for your favorite designers this season by shopping heels with prominent logos. Whether it's a fabric pump splashed with "Balenciaga" or YSL's branded stiletto, think of these as a team uniform — for your feet.

If you're trying to bring together a handful of boldly colored separates, make sure you own a shoe that can do the hard work for you. Stand tall in floral booties or rainbow stilettos that complement your entire palette all at once.

If you've yet to pick up a new anklet, why not try a wraparound pump with shimmering details that adds an ornamental touch to your outfit?

You wore your power suit before with your black power pump, but in 2018, trade that sophisticated shoe for something elegant and trend-focused.

The easiest way to construct an outfit that focuses on your heels is to pile on neutral, effortless layers and add eye-opening shoes that are one level shy of costume-like.

Try pairing your sophisticated heels with slitted pants that draw attention to your feet and elongate your legs.

Try the unexpected combination of a t-shirt, blazer, cropped sweats, and heels, and you won't believe how chic you look and comfortable you feel all at once.
