Autumn wedge boots: suede, leather, rubber for autumn
Before choosing autumn wedge boots for 2021, let's figure out exactly what they should look like. Unfortunately, for many girls the concepts of “wedge” and “platform” are synonymous. In fact, a wedge is a type of platform shoe. The platform is a high sole, the main task of which is to increase height and visually lengthen the legs. The platform can be flat; we see it in fashionable sneakers. Sometimes the platform is located only under the toe part of heeled shoes. A wedge is a shoe in which a solid sole has a curved upper part, and the height increases from toe to heel. These boots will not only add inches to your height, but will also lift your buttocks, making your figure more appetizing, and will also provide a more feminine gait and royal posture, no worse than high-heeled boots.
When choosing wedge boots for fall 2021, you should pay special attention to the material. Leather boots are an ideal option; they are not afraid of puddles and dirt, they are easy to wash, and such shoes look solid and stylish. Less practical are suede boots with wedges, but there is a solution. Special care products for suede shoes can give your boots water-repellent properties. A pair of suede pairs perfectly with a fur vest, a cashmere coat or a classic trench coat. There are also rubber boots with wedges on sale. Rubber shoes have long ceased to be something specific and are readily recognized by stylists as fashionable and stylish. Rubber boots on an elegant high platform look chic with raincoats, leather jackets, cropped down jackets and trendy bomber jackets.
What clothes go best with high platform shoes? These boots look great with flared knee-length skirts, skinny pants and short straight skirts. You should be especially careful when choosing a high solid sole for a pencil skirt; if you have a narrow pelvis and thin legs, you will have to abandon this combination. Platform stocking boots look chic; this season they are above-the-knee models, the edge of which is hidden under the hem of the skirt. Over the knee boots are trending and are best worn with skinny trousers. If you wear a short dress or skirt with your boots, cover them with a coat so that only your legs in tights or leggings remain visible. This outfit means that when you arrive at your destination and take off your outerwear, you will change into less bulky shoes.
Spectacular combinations
