Dress shoes are a must-have item for a woman's wardrobe. There are many types of dress shoes and most people spend years searching for the perfect pair for every occasion. That's why we decided to give you some guidelines on which shoes are suitable for your upcoming events.

A good choice for elegant women's shoes that a lady could wear for a longer period of time is a low heel shoe. These elegant shoes are extremely comfortable and can look much more formal if matched with the right dress. This type of heel is best suited for many types of events, but especially:

At a party – be it a birthday party, a company party or just a Friday night out at a bar. When a person goes out on such occasions, they expect to be available for as long as possible, both standing and sitting. A low heel would give you hope that no matter where the event is, you will be able to stay as long as you want and that you will not be in a hurry to go home impatiently to take off your shoes.
In the office – a whole day in the office is certainly tiring, even with flat shoes, but you can try to break up the daily routine with elegant low-heeled shoes. They may turn out to be more comfortable than your flat shoes. Sometimes the work environment itself or the company you work for requires a more formal look from you, so opt for shoes that will be more representative than basic sneakers. Boots, ankle boots, sandals or a closed leather shoe with a low heel will be stylish enough to make an impression while doing your job.

If you are not a fan of low heels, you can always aim higher, literally. The fashion industry has provided us with many variations of heels and you could certainly find a beautiful and comfortable formal shoe with a medium heel. This type of women's shoes is not to be underestimated, as it can make any look formal, even without the mandatory wardrobe staples of every lady, a dress and a skirt. Everyone happens to be invited to an event with a dress code and in such moments, one can have difficulty choosing the right outfit. Then it would be most stylish to bet on elegant women's shoes with a medium heel. If you think that they will not be comfortable enough for you, then go for elegant shoes with a thick heel.

An example of an event that would require a more elegant dress code would be a christening. This is a nice occasion that you may have been looking forward to for months, but not every outfit would be appropriate for this event. For such an occasion, you can opt for a jumpsuit, a suit, or pants with a top, but in this case, it is more than advisable to wear elegant women's shoes with medium heels.
Another reason for a lady to think about her outfit would be a meeting with a man she wants to impress. Regardless of whether we are in a romantic mood or not, sometimes it is nice to feel noticeable, or more precisely, remarkable. In such moments, opt for a medium heel. Not only will it make your figure visibly slimmer, but you will also show the person across from you that you have a taste for fashion. With the right accessories and the perfect elegant women's shoes, you will certainly make more than a good impression.

Elegant high heels can seem like a challenge for a large number of women. They are certainly a riskier solution than women's low and medium heels, but they have some advantages that might interest you. First of all - the height. As intimidating as it may be, it can be your good friend at an event where people around you would make you feel smaller. This happens to almost everyone and sometimes we need aids to feel good in such an environment. Another reason to choose high heels is that they will certainly make you sexier. Elegant women's high heels add femininity and draw attention to you no matter where you are. There is nothing more attractive than an elongated leg that is supported by a beautiful shoe and a woman who steps confidently in her women's elegant shoes. You can be sure that the courage to choose high shoes for your occasion will not go unnoticed. There are other reasons to trust high heels - remember that when you step on a high sole, the muscle in your leg tightens and this automatically makes your leg look thinner than it is. Therefore, if you are planning an important event for you where you care about how you will look, consider high heels and do not give in to the worry that they will not be comfortable for you. Such types of events can be:

A prom, whether it's yours or a loved one's, is certainly the perfect occasion to demonstrate confidence and style through beautiful and elegant high heels. Proms and graduations mark the beginning and end of key periods in a person's life. Often, they are celebrated with a big celebration with the closest ones, and sometimes with a much larger circle of people. These events are planned months in advance, which gives you time to choose the most suitable outfit for the event. Now that you know the advantages of elegant women's high heels, dare to try them for your next such event.
Wedding - we can't deny that this is considered the most important event in a woman's life. No matter where it is, a wedding often requires a formal dress code, also called - "Black tie". It always depends on how close you are to the newlyweds, but your look should be representative enough for such a big event, so bet on a shoe that has this look. Sometimes, a wedding can last for hours and in that case, there is a chance that you will get tired if you are in very high heels. Your decision can be either to get a pair of comfortable shoes that you can change into when you get tired or to bet on high platforms, which if selected, can also be a good option for such a formal event.

Elegant shoes are definitely a must-have for every lady's wardrobe, as their varieties are perfect for different types of formal events. Do you own a pair of them and what type are your favorites - low, medium or high heels?
