Choosing Sexy Mules and How To Wear Them
How to wear Sexy Mules
Everyone loves sexy mules. Perhaps it's the ability to easily slip them
on and off; or maybe it's the range of styles available; or it could simply be
the fact that they seem less confining than other dress shoes - but whatever
the reason, for most women over half the shoes
in their wardrobe are sexy mules.
- While strictly speaking a mule
is just a backless shoe, these tips and rules apply to sexy fashion mules, as
opposed to heavier-soled clogs or comfort, flat-heeled mules.
- When trying on a pair of
mule shoes, you'll want to be sure that the heel of your foot doesn't hang over the back
edge or the sides of the shoe. Not only is this unattractive, it's also
uncomfortable.
- While you don't want to see too much of the soles around your feet, a
slight margin will prevent you from looking as if you crammed your feet
into shoes that don't fit. Be sure to stand and walk in the mules you're
considering, to be absolutely certain that they fit properly.
- A popular way
to wear mule shoes is with long trousers, or longer skirts - but thinner-heeled
mules can also look great with shorter skirts, if you have the legs for
it.
- When it comes to mules, the
chunkier the heel, the more casual the shoe will appear.
- If you have large legs, or
thick ankles, opt for a mule with a chunkier heel when wearing a dress or
skirt. This will make your ankles appear thinner, while pointy heeled
mules will actually make your ankles seem thicker. Mules with a chunky
wedge heel are also a good choice for making your ankles seem slimmer.
- Mules with thin, stiletto heels,
or dainty kitten heels are best for women with thin legs, or bony ankles.
- Dress socks, tights or stockings are great with mules and slacks or longer skirts. With shorter skirts,
sheer hosiery or bare legs is a good look, although the latter will
probably not be perceived as being very professional.
