Wedge sandals

In the warm season, more than ever, you want to walk, cutting through the streets with a royal gait in stunning high-heeled shoes. But the heels may not always be comfortable, and often even cause discomfort, besides, in the summer, it can be simply hot in the shoes.

Sandals are usually called shoes designed for warm weather conditions, since the product does not completely cover the foot, leaving most of it free, which is due to the maximum ventilation of the leg. Sandals are worn on bare feet, without socks or tights, which explains the corresponding name.

The advantage of sandals over other types of shoes is that in addition to their attractive appearance, they have a fairly wide functionality. For example, it does not expose the foot to thermal stress, which would be the case with shoes.

The advantage of the platform is that, with a successful design, the load is distributed over the entire foot, not concentrating in one part of it. This is the most convenient and comfortable option, since the concentration of the load in one area of ​​the leg can cause traumatic pain.

The advantages can be attributed to the fact that the platform is most often made of a dense, but sufficiently elastic material, which is exposed and creates a shock absorption effect, protecting the leg from overload.

1. Sandals and sandals were the first footwear in Ancient Greece. They appeared several centuries before our era.
2. Initially, sandals and sandals were the same and were shoes with dense soles, but without a heel.
3. The first model of heeled sandals appeared thanks to the fashion designer Salvatore Ferragamo, who invented the thick square heel.
4. Sandals with high wooden soles were the traditional shoes of geisha in ancient Japan.
5. There is a model of sandals without a heel and a platform, although they have a bend, implying its presence. In the front area of ​​the product, a weighting part is built in, which allows you to maintain balance.

Although the principle of sandals implies the same type of product, there are still differences and there are quite a few of them. Distinctive features may include the materials from which the sole is made, the style in which the product itself is modeled, or even small details that radically change its appearance.

Cork sandals - the most natural model, providing extraordinary comfort for the foot, since it is the cork sole that has the ability to adjust to the position of the foot.

An unusual novelty - sandals with transparent wedges, is not entirely practical, although it looks very interesting. The fact is that the transparent wedge is made of a special type of plastic, so it can be subject to numerous breakages and cracks.

High Thick Wedge Sandals they also have a platform in the front (toe area), about five centimeters wide, due to which the wedge is quite high. This model looks just incredible and visually lengthens the legs in an amazing way.

Low wedge heel not so comfortable, because it is less stable and attractive in appearance. The load on a thin, low wedge heel is not distributed over the entire foot, but falls only on its individual parts, which is not very good.

The appearance of sandals also largely depends on what material they are made of. For a particular case, a certain model may be suitable, while some other may not be appropriate and not relevant.

For example, patent leather sandals are great for creating a casual look., but they do not quite successfully fit into an evening look, since they are not combined with evening dresses. Lacquered sandals on a massive high platform look a little vulgar, so in combination with an evening dress, the image will turn out to be not beautiful, but simply obscene

Textile sandals are also not suitable for an evening out, because they look somewhat simple and sometimes even sloppy. Such a model is more good for summer walks or a beach holiday, since the textile trim most successfully fits into the framework of this style.

Leather and suede sandals - the most popular models for several seasons, which is not surprising. The nobility of natural luxurious materials makes the shoes truly beautiful and comfortable, without creating any discomfort when walking.

Colored sandals have always been popular, since bright colors and rich shades are most relevant for the summer season - the time of entertainment and adventure. But it is important not only to choose a trendy pair of sandals, but also to make sure that their shade is also among the popular ones.

Black and white sandals - something that does not go out of style and remains popular from season to season.These colors are simple and understandable, therefore they are a priority for many girls. In addition, black and white shoes are the easiest to combine with other shades.

These shades that are universal in terms of compatibility include sandals of brown color and all its shades... Since the brown color, as well as its light shades, are natural, close to the skin tone, it is quite easy to combine them with other colors, you just have to choose a tone that is suitable for brightness.

Sandals of deep, noble shades look very bright and juicysuch as the color of Marsala, deep brown, dark lilac and green, as well as a shade called graphite. Sandals of these colors will help to add an element of sexuality and seduction to the image.

The greatest animalistic colors are popular among printsthat looks beautiful not only in clothes, but also in shoes. Animal print colorways help set off and tone down any dull look.

Floral print is also popular, but not with the image of large bright flowers, but on the contrary, the pattern with the image of numerous neat small inflorescences looks beautiful.

Decorative items include a variety of shiny ornaments. Large colored stones, rhinestones of different sizes, sequins of different shapes and multi-colored bulk sequins - the use of a certain amount of these ornaments will lead to the creation of inimitable, stylish sandals.

Various fabric additions are often used as a decorative element., be it large or small chiffon flowers attached to the front of the product, pretty bows made of the same fabric as the sandals themselves, or wide fabric ties that can be tied up to the knee by weaving them crosswise.

Straps can also be used as a decorative element, thanks to which the product is kept on the leg. Sometimes high sandals made of numerous thin straps look more stylish and unusual than any other product.

Fashion trends are very fleeting and full of amazing novelties, but sometimes it happens that once having lost its former popularity, some thing bursts into popular trends with renewed vigor, gaining a foothold in the first lines of the fashion hit parade for long seasons.

The clearest example of such a gain in popularity with renewed vigor are high cork platform sandals... Not only are they very beautiful, they are also very comfortable, as the outsole of this quality is quite soft and has good cushioning properties.

The same goes for the wicker wedge, which can be made in the form of intertwining braided flagella or braided and fastened in tight rows.

Ordinary leather sandals with numerous straps, as well as similar models made of suede and velvet material, are also fashionable. Looks smart and will help to decorate any look.

For evening dresses, sandals with a soft suede surface or with additional decor are suitable.

Choosing good, quality sandals can be a daunting task., since at present, along with good products, there are many unscrupulous manufacturers who provide the consumer with poor quality goods.

Therefore, when going for a pair of stylish sandals, you should first of all pay attention to their quality.... Whether all the straps are neatly stitched, whether all the fasteners are firmly in place and are in good working order, whether the platform and the wedge itself are neatly framed - all these are of paramount importance.

It is best to purchase a product with a stitched sole., since this will ensure maximum wear resistance. A sole that is simply glued can deteriorate and disperse from exposure to water or any cleaning agents, while a stitched sole can withstand any test.

It is necessary to select a product with a comfortable shoeso that when walking on a high platform for a long time, there is no discomfort. A comfortable foot position is very important when wearing sandals for a long time and when walking for a long time, in particular.

It is worth remembering that shoes should always be matched to the size of your feet., and the leg, in turn, should not slip, but also should not be unnecessarily squeezed. High-quality sandals, matched to size, simply fix the foot well in a comfortable position.

Since sandals are fairly light footwear, suitable for warm weather, they will be combined with things of this purpose, creating a motley stylish look for all occasions.

The first thing that comes to mind is light dresses of different lengths from flowing and natural fabrics. Models of dresses can be absolutely any, with or without sleeves, on thin spaghetti straps or wide straps, and sometimes at all, without any fastenings on the shoulders, holding only on the chest.

The combination of sandals with different skirts and light summer shorts also looks beautiful. But you should be more careful and choose the length of the product based on your own parameters, since a too short and frank outfit will only look dignified on slender girls, and simply putting curvaceous forms on display, not quite paying attention to them.

If the need arises to put on trousers or jeans, sandals will also find their use. Combined with tight-fitting models of trouser clothes, they quite favorably emphasize and visually correct the legs, while adding a couple of centimeters to the height.

• A delicate lace dress with a straight cut in a milky shade looks especially cute with a light cardigan of the same shade. And light sandals of a high model with an open toe and lacing will favorably emphasize slender long legs.

• Stylish combination of skinny white 7/8 pants and a light chiffon sleeveless blouse with a print in the form of small cats, complemented by a bright blue bag and stunning red sandals with a high cork platform.
