Looking to replace those size six shorts? For some brands, you may have to purchase the exact pair in a size twelve. This has caused outrage among many women (and men). The solution? Stick to those shoes!
Shoes generally do not not change size (minor exceptions aside), and with the right pair, you can transform the most simplest of looks into something daring.
Miranda Lambert recently attended the Academy of Country Music Awards wearing a pair of pink pistol shoes by Texas designer Joyce Echols. The striking stilettos made global news, as Miranda managed to embody both her sudden roots and send a message to her ex Blake Shelton. I absolutely LOVE these shoes, but WARNING, I do not love the price. If you have $849 to spend on craziness, click here! The also come in black if your are looking for a more “understated look”.
Popular fashion stylist Brad Goreski once said, “I believe every woman should have a flat, a really good wedge, and then the showstopper shoe.” I could not agree more. I would make two tweaks. First, I would make each pair plural. 🙂 Second, flats and wedges can definitely be your go to showstopper shoe…especially with the selections this summer.
As I am 5’7, I tend to embrace the flats and low wedges for my work looks and laid back weekend outfits. Both have more stability and can get you through the day. This summer, there are loads of fun styles to choose.

great advice! I was a wardrober for many years- what I learned from the clothing vendors and reps was this- size in clothing depends on the ‘fit model’ that particular brand uses- thus the variations- you are exactly right- one brand might have a size 6 that in another brand might be a 12- don’t go just by size- go by fit. No one knows but you!

That is so interesting. Thank you so much for sharing! People often obsess over the number, but there seem to be so many factors accounting for the difference. Now I can share your insight with others, so they don’t fret. 🙂

and some manufacturers may use – say a size 6 fit model and just make the adjustments up or down- with the rule being 1/4 inch per seam per size, so if there are two side seams and a front and back seam- that means there is just one inch difference total!! so from size to size- there is very little difference!! your blog is great!
