If the shoe fits…
There is something about chunky platformed shoes at the bottom of a dainty legged young lady. I don’t know what it is but I absolutely adore the look. CC (yes, I did just refer to myself in 3rd person!) has been pairing clunky heals with wet-leggings and skinny jeans for a while now, and CC just cant get enough of it!
In this tough economy its hard to find the perfect pair without breaking the bank, but I’ve done some much needed online shopping and after searching even the deepest, darkest stores on the net, I have found oodles of show-stopping shoes to top on those sexy toes!
When stepping out in dramatic sky-high shoes, you must make sure that the outfit works, and you must get the proportions dead on. If the proportions are off then the whole outfit ends up looking like an absolute mess.
The clothes and shoes need to flow. Wearing super chunky platforms with a knee length skirt is just one big “NO NO”. Instead, slide into a pair of skinny jeans. Makes sure the jeans “scrunch” just a bit at the ankles. I also suggest keeping the pants and the shoes somewhat mono-toned. If your wearing black pants or super dark washed jeans then wear shoes in the same tinted family, like espresso, black, gunmetal grey, deep plum, etc…
Then take a top that is a lighter color and top it with a blazer or oversized cardigan that is somewhere in between the colors. A muted color works. Add a pop of color with a big oversized clutch or a square scarf.





Love! I just bought a pair of Dolce Vita “Jasper” ankle boots that I adore with skinny jeans! You have great taste in shoes
