In the summer I also wear sandals with small platforms which works well. I think wearing your platform wedges would be just fine!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-flares#post-1085314 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 19:58:00 +0000 Jeanie 1085314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tried these on at Dansko once. &nbsp;They were super comfortable and made me feel like a tall person.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.dansko.com/Womens/Footwear/View%20All/Franka/Brandy%20Antique%20Full%20Grain/">http://www.dansko.com/Womens/F.....l%20Grain/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-flares#post-1085307 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 19:55:55 +0000 rae 1085307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, I agree, especially with my Sasquatch feet. But if hidden under flares... I have to remember to try on at lunchtime. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-flares#post-1085302 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 19:54:27 +0000 cciele 1085302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooo, the Litas! There is something about those shoes -- they are a bit clown-like but purposefully exaggerated so look kinda cool.&nbsp;I tried on a pair awhile back, can't remember what I thought at the time. May have to revisit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-flares#post-1085291 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 19:49:21 +0000 rae 1085291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Am contemplating something like this, too. Not 100% my style, but at about a 2.25" pitch much more comfy and still provides height.

I have a feeling more platform options&nbsp;should be around to go with the upsurge in flared legs, too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-flares#post-1085191 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 18:48:52 +0000 Angie 1085191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, to your question.</p> <p>&nbsp;I love pointy toe heels with flares. Or boots with a 1.5 to 2&nbsp;inch heel. (That's why bootcuts were created).&nbsp;I don't like to wear flats with flares either. Flats go hand in hand with structure - which means tapered legs or bare legs.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shoes-for-flares#post-1085184 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 18:41:05 +0000 cciele 1085184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool to see that flares are coming back! I do love a nice-fitting pair of flares, but worn with heels because they look stumpifying otherwise at my 5'3" height. </p> <p>In particular,&nbsp;I like the look of 4" heels with flares, but for that&nbsp;I need to wear platforms (I can't really wear heels over 2").&nbsp;</p> <p>I seem to recall reading here that wedge platforms are out, or near on their way. How can I get the height I need to pull of flares? Or can I just wear my platform wedges, since they are basically completely covered by the pants hem anyhow? :)</p> <p>Thanks for your advice! </p>
