WALK BETTER IN STILETTOS



Like learning any new skill, mastering the art of walking in high heels takes patience, practice, and a few practical measures. For instance, it is important to make sure that you are wearing the proper shoe size. However, you will be surprised to hear that most women wear shoes that are too small, which further help to damage their feet. It should be known that wearing proper shoe size would help improve your overall.

If you are new to wearing heels, I recommend starting with a lower heel, thicker heel, and a little bit wider toe box. This increases your stability, and then as you become more comfortable, you can start teasing the height of that heel a little bit higher and going for a narrower, classic stiletto heel.


Size Matters   

First, you want to make sure your heels (or any shoe, for that matter) are the proper size. If they are too big, your foot will slide around awkwardly. Too small and your foot will feel cramped, which will make walking a pain. For the best fit, get your foot sized frequently. "Your foot size changes over the years, even as much as one full size, especially after having kids," Have your feet sized once a year, and do it if you have never had it done. . . . Many people think they are a wide or vice versa, and they are not, so definitely do that before you shop.

Pace Yourself

If you have never walked in high heels before, do not start out learning with 5-inch stilettos that is a recipe for pain and maybe even injury. "Try something smaller, like a 2-inch heel or wedge to get used to the feeling. You can always work your way up to your most killer heels while you are Conscious of the Rest of Your Body.


Slow It Down

Heels are not worn in gym class for a reason, so take your time when you are walking in them. "Wearing heels naturally makes your stride shorter, so you’ll need to take more steps than usual. Don’t expect to be able to walk as fast as you normally do in high heels."
