How to Select Shoes to Wear With Wide-Leg Pants (Women)



Wide-leg pants are a classic suit component, and complement full figures well. Look for shoes that balance the width of the pants.







Things You'll Need:





Sneakers



Women's Boots



Women's Closed-toed Shoes



Women's Dress Shoes



Women's Sandals









Step
1



Choose pumps that have a wider heel and toe for dressier work environments. This will balance the foot with the apparently wider leg.




Step
2



Pair wide-leg trousers with leather loafers for a casual work look or dressy leisure look. Match the color of your belt to that of your shoes.




Step
3



Match ankle or knee-high boots with heavier pants in the winter. Ensure that the boots fit snugly to avoid indenting the pant legs. Choose a wider heel over a thin or pointed one.




Step
4



Dress down casual cotton pants with wide-toe canvas sneakers, or dress them up with round-toe slip-on sandals with chunky heels.




Step
5



Remember that black is the dressiest shoe color and will complement most outfits, except for pastel ones. Brown will make a rich contrast to navy or tan pants, but is definitely viewed as more casual than black.




Step
6



Shine leather shoes regularly for a more polished appearance, and to extend the life of your shoes.







Tips & Warnings









When your good leather shoes get caught in the rain or land in a puddle, blot the excess moisture and air-dry them. Avoid drying them with any heat sources, as this will parch the leather and damage the shoes.
