Ask CF Question

Hi CF!

I recently bought a beautiful pair of glittery gold peep-toe wedges with a bow (only two inches high). It’s perfect for Christmas events, but I’d like to be able to wear it to work afterward since it’s such a comfortable height and I’d like to get more use out of it. The material is textured rather than actual glitter, so it shouldn’t be inappropriate. I figure my best bet with these shoes is to keep the rest of my outfit plain and simple and let them be the focus, but can you give me any more ideas and suggestions on how I could style glittery wedges for work?

Thanks in advance, looking forward to your tips!

P.S. To give you an idea of my usual work style, it’s quite feminine, ladylike and vintage-y, with occasional hippie-ish details. Think flowy skirts, pencil skirts, blouses, dresses, heels, florals and geometric prints. I rarely wear pants. My office does have a professional dress code but it’s not overly formal, as I work at an environmental management company – the restrictions are geared more at coverage and hemlines (eg. no sleeveless) than at clothing being structured or dark/neutral in colour.

Dear Pop of Glitter,

As a fan of anything and everything gold and glittery (ahem, glitter clothes), I am so happy that you sent in this question! After all, everyone could use a little more sparkle in their lives, right?
