Always Accede Comfort
Whether you’re a 2-inch-heel babe or a 4-inch-heel girl, apperceive your limits, says Marek Hartwig, a Chicago-based conjugal stylist.

When it comes to color, white, ivory and added aerial neutrals or alike metallics like argent and gold tend to be a safe bet.

Something added claimed like cowboy boots is aces if you’re accepting a western-themed wedding, but alfresco those margins they’re out of place, says Hartwig. And alike if you’re an ardent runner, it’s best to delay to blooper into your admired sneakers until afterwards the ceremony.
