Over the years, one of the knocks friends and family tended to offer me, you have no causal clothes.

I would say they are mostly right, however in high school I did my internships in business offices and tended to buy Town and Country suits from the local military installation (Fort Meade/NSA) and not jeans.

I never stopped buying business suits after high school and opted for this style while doing my undergraduate work.

That said, I did have causal styles in high school. One of my favorites is shown below.

• White Painter's Pants
• KORK-EASE Ava 2.0 Women's Wedge Sandal
• Long Tube Top
• Womens Plaid Long Sleeve Shirt
• Red Crew Socks

All of this to explain why in July 2013 I purchased the Steve Madden WANTING Wedge Sandal shown in the illustration on the right. I thought I could try to replicate a casual style I once thought suited me.

The problem? Once I started high school, I began wearing shoes with heels or platforms and never looked back. That said, I found the 5¼ inch heels on the Steve Madden WANTING Wedge Sandal to be more than I was used too. Hence, I never tried to find styles in my closet that worked with the shoe.

Recently, I discovered the reason I could not walk in the shoes was probably due to my weight, because I can now walk in the shoes with ease.

So what is the problem now? I found very little in my closet that works with the sandal. See the photos below.

I think the straight leg blue jeans work better with the shoe on me, though not as dressy as I would like.

I have worn the Madewell Black Velvet Jeans for a couple of years and prefer the look in the following series of photos when wearing the dressier jeans.

Still working on the camera lights to hide everything I do not want to see and believe it or not my diet.
