You are in formal attire and you might want to be on comfortable footwear, you do not want to have to talk to a client or your boss and at the same time worrying you are putting on the wrong footwear.

Do not wear heels that might be too high as that can be really intimidating, if you are no fans of heels, then wear a nice wedge, wedges come in different height, get a well-polished wedge in your desired height make sure the color suits your outfit and you are good to go.

2. Short Dress/Skirt (Gladiators, Sneakers)
