WordPress is great because it lets you see what terms people are using in search engines to find your blog. And since the “Advice” page seems to be languishing a bit, I thought I’d answer some “questions” people searched for.
One of the easiest to answer was “Is it okay to wear wedges with capris?”
To that I answer a resounding, “YES!” In fact, I find wedges adorable with capris. Capris are usually casual or semi-casual, and wedges are the perfect way to get the height and “fancying up” factor of pumps while being slightly more comfortable and less dressy.
The next is a little harder (especially since WordPress cut off the complete query). “Even though I’m short I like cuffed je” (which I took to mean “jeans”). This one is a bit harder, because jeans without the cuff really do make you look taller, longer, and leaner. However, I have a weakness for shoes with ankle straps, which also shorten the legs, so I guess I really can’t judge on this one. I think my best answer would be: If you embrace and/or don’t care about your shortness, go for the cuffed jeans! Just make sure that they were cuffed already, and not just that you’re cuffing your own, too-long jeans. It makes a big difference. Another solution? Wear the cuffed jeans (or trousers) with wedges or pumps. Just don’t wear platforms! Please! They look good on no one!
And the last one I’ll do for today, “Can you wear corduroy in the spring?” The answer is “Yes” as long as it is a fine-whale corduroy (meaning thin cords, not thick ones) and a lighter color like khaki, sand, grey, or olive. Brown and black are not suggested. If you’re adventurous, you might wear the brighter color cords they had out a while ago (like red or royal blue), but please avoid the pastel ones. Pastels should stay firmly on tops and cute Easter skirts.
Okay, enough proselytizing for today! Time for class!
