Business Meeting:
I was so delighted when I saw these heels!  I'm on the hunt for new shoe that I can stand all day in but still feel stylish in.  These kitten heels are up to both tasks!

I only like to make one fashion statement at a time, so for my work dress I would keep it simple with a grey dress and gold bangle bracelets.  The red purse punches up the outfit with a shot of color.


Drinks & Music:
Who says kitten heels are only for work?  The color and style of these shoes are very versatile.

These shoes look great peeking out from under a pair of dark bootcut jeans (the most flattering cut for all women IMO).   The graphic tee and red jacket are an awesome combination.

Add some long earrings and a black leather bag and you're ready to rock!

Work Kit - Shoes

Work Kit - Shoes by carryonstyle featuring flat heels

When building your basic work-kit, you probably don't want to spend a lot of money on a lot of different shoes, so we always recommend starting with the well made basic shoes, in brown, black and taupe or cream in whatever heel height you feel comfortable in.

These basics will get you through most office environments then you can start adding different styles and colors, even red.

Red seems to be one of those colors that can cross the line from work-appropriate to vampy in a matter of seconds, so I actually have 2 different red shoes:  one with a 2.5 in heel for work and a 3.5 inch heel for not work.

Tip:  If you've never worn brighter color shoes, you can wear them with slacks, so you are just showing a peep of color.
