10 guidlines to looking fabulous in shoes



Come weight gain/loss, tan/pale, acne or cellulite; my shoes will always fit me and never let me down! The shoes you choose are as important as the way you rock them. They determine how you walk that walk!

10 Shoe guidelines for every shoe lover!
1. Comfort is priority - if you cannot walk in it, you look silly and if its small or too pointy (kick and mboboza)... mmm nasty corns!
2. Do not be scared of colour - if your outfit is too bright though, neutralise it with humbly coloured shoes.
3. Make a statement rock star - gone are the days when sneakers and a cocktail dress or gents suite were fo-fabulous! Make your shoes and style of dress a reflection of your personality! People will always analyse you from the top down...give them reason to.
4. Dress for the occasion - outdoors calls for flats or wedges. Research has it that women who rock too much heels in their 20s; are prone to suffer more foot/heel pain and arthritis later. So keep it real!
5. Maintain the balance - Keep sky high heels for longer hemlines (below knee). Pair your mini with an average heel, to balance out the form. Same goes for male heels.
6. Tailor your hems - flats need pants that fall directly on the ankle or just above. When too low you trample over them and risk looking sloppy. For longer leaner legs, make sure skirts and dresses fall just above the knee or higher.
7. Matching speaks volumes - when wearing a heavily layered outfit, match it with a thick sole. Wear your light dresses up with a thinner-healed shoe. Helps you look in proportion and effortlessly themed.
8. Do not compromise on quality... need I say more
9. Keep feet well pedicured and smelling fresh, you never know when you will have to take the shoes off!
10. Say thank you when complimented on your shoe and share the knowledge!
