Brown Wedges Class and Style for the Business Woman

Skechers Women's Shape Ups - Elasticity Fitness Boot While some shoes can be designed to be classy, brown wedges are 'born' classy. The perfect outfit for them? Business suits! Likewise there are thousands of styles of brown wedge sandals for the summer and brown wedge boots for the winter which can work with business suits and shorts or jeans as well. It can seem overwhelming to search for what you need for that perfect outfit, but that's what I"m here for. The bottom line is that there are certain rules about using brown, and what shoes can be worn with certain things - well, imho. That's what a shoe blog is about though right? The writer's opinion (based on years of shoe shopping.)

Brown is one of those colors that speak high-class. In my grandmother's day it would be called swanky. Lately I find myself drawn to everything brown. I've moved all the towels in our bathroom to brown, but since I've recently bought a lot of white wedge shoes, if I think about buying a new pair of shoes, my husband might take away my credit card. However, that won't stop me long!

Nine West Women's Smooch Wedge Well, I already own a couple pairs of brown wedge sandals, so hubby can take away the credit card for now. I love the way they look with white shorts or sundresses - sexy but also classic and sophisticated. My sandals are quite casual, however, I've found quite a few sexy, classy brown wedges for suits and dressier occasions. It's tough to find a dressy brown wedge, but they exist. The great part about a dressy shoe is that it often can be worn with a suit.

When choosing brown wedges for business suits or dresses, you'll find the best brands are designer styles. Doesn't mean you have to spend a ton of money. While you can find a select number of shoes for low price, without a brand name, you won't find a shoe that fits your foot well and, more importantly, a shoe that won't make you want to rip your foot off an hour after you put it on. But there are plenty of brand names, like Bandalino (or shopping at Amazon.com), that won't drain your shoe budget. (I guess I assume that all women have a shoe budget like me =D)

As I mention on many of my posts about wedge shoes, I love shopping for shoes. I also love specific places to buy shoes. I spend more of my time shopping for shoes than I should, but that's good for my readers (whoever you are) because I can tell you the best places to get shoes. I also get the bonus of posting my finds online, which means more shopping \o/. My job is great right? In fact, my life is so great I spend 18 hours a day working. I love putting together great posts with different places and styles of shoes to shop.

I've put together a list of places to buy some gorgeous brown wedge shoes that I think are worthwhile. I've also put some pictures up of some of my favorites. Just take a look above the post and you'll see the handpicked wedge shoes.

So these shoes may not make you go "OMG", but they should make you go "mmhmm*. They're really beautiful classy brown wedge pumps. A small heel, easy to walk in but gorgeous.
