Do I have to wear heels with my HOCO dress?

There is no fashion rule that says that you must wear heels to the 2023 Homecoming dance. Because Homecoming is not as formal as the Prom, it is not uncommon to see an alternative or casual shoe style like chunky sneakers or lug boots so feel free to draw on your personal style so that your head-to-toe homecoming attire reflects you. In fact, what homecoming dress style or dress alternative you choose to wear, can help determine what shoes you wear. First, consider the length of your HOCO attire. Will your feet be visible? For long, flowy dresses or chic jumpsuits, you can definitely wear a dressy flat or low kitten heel since the length of your attire will cover up part of your footwear. If you choose to go with a skater or a shorter, party-length dress for homecoming, you may want to opt for a heel that will be more visible and elongates your silhouette. Next, think about your comfort level. If you feel like you’ll be stumbling by wearing a high heel, choose a low or thicker sturdier heel, like a wedge or block heel, to give you a steady step. Also, consider what look or vibe you’re trying to achieve—are you trying to have your footwear take the spotlight, or is the focus on your dress? If you’re looking to have your footwear play a bigger role in your look, a flashy heel with sparkly accents or shiny embellishments is a solid choice. Whatever footwear you choose to go with for 2023 Homecoming, make sure it’s something you’d feel comfortable enough to wear for hours and that it reflects your personality.

How do I pick my perfect homecoming shoes?

When picking your perfect homecoming shoes to complete your outfit, you’ll want to consider a couple of things. First, get your fit just right! This means picking a shoe that doesn’t fit too tight because this can lead to blisters and soreness. On the other hand, avoid picking a shoe that is too loose which might cause your feet to slide around, and overwork muscles that are trying to keep your shoe secure. You need to also look at how your shoe will match your dress style so consider color, fabric type, and length. For example, if you’ll be wearing a formal print dress, like a sequin scroll print or embroidered lace dress, styling with a nude or black pump will match seamlessly as opposed to an embellished heel that draws attention away from your dress. Rhinestone or glitter heels can be styled with solid-colored dresses or with velvet, glitter, and crepe dresses without taking too much away from your dress. The length of your homecoming dress can help you determine what shoes you should wear too. For example, a dressy flat or low heel shoe might pair better with a long dress because it may not be the main feature of your homecoming look. Whereas an embellished heel, like rhinestone block heels, glitter heels, or metallic stilettos, could be better shown off with party-length, short, high-low, or skater dresses for homecoming. You can also match or complement your homecoming jewelry. When shopping for your perfect homecoming shoe, take your comfort and personal style into consideration along with these tips to nail your HOCO look.
