    Practice, practice, practice...watch "America's Next Top Model" I love me a nice high heel, but my knees sometimes pay the price...all worth it though, I am under 5'2":grumble:

    Nope, I could when I was a kid & playing dress up, I could walk in them so effortlessly.
    Now, no, not at all haha. I tried on some heels the other week & almost landed on my face.

    Yes I love heels, I would never wear them when I was above 160, now that I'm nearing my 130's I wear them everywhere except for walking the mall or something hahaha. I'm actually wearing 5 inch heels today :)

    I think my picture answers your question.
  • I don't think I've ever had issues walking in heels, though wedges do give me some trouble. I almost broke my damn neck in a pair of wedges once. D:

    3.5" - 4" is about my max, because I'm really clumsy.

  • Get good quality heels with lots of cushion or put gel inserts in them. Also try a wider heel or wedge for better balance until you get use to the height.

    Yup. I was in a sorority though, so I had a lot of chances to practice.

    I still walk in heels , i'm 53. My mom still walks in heels all of the time, she's 73. I think what ruins the feet are those pointed toe shoes , I've never had a problem with heels.
  • I hate NOT wearing heels lol :P
  • I LOVE STILETTOS!! :heart: :bigsmile: =D

    Wear them almost ALWAYS!!

    My best compliments come to me when I'm wearing heels. They automatically make me feel like ten thousand bucks.

    I must be one of the few people whose body has "forgotten" how to walk in heels. When I was in school I'd wear 4" heeled boots every day without worry, could walk as normal, run etc, yet as an adult I transitioned into "comfy" footwear, got used to flat boots and trainers. Now I can't wear heels the way I used to, they just huuurt! The best I can manage is a 2" heel, which I save only for job interviews :)

    For added height, I will wear platforms! :)

    Or do you just stick to flats or something?
    I'm trying to learn how to walk in high heels, it's so damn hard, my legs are so stiff so I look so awkward. xD

    I think heels are sexy, but I have masculine feet and don't like my legs so I don't go there often. I can SORT OF walk in them, but they kill my feet! I wish I could. I secretly wish I were a girly girl and could wear the dresses and heels and have mega hot style, but I suck at it.

    ^^ I am right there with you, girl.

    I'm tall (5'9) so I never got into wearing really tall heels. I manage about 3 or 4 inch heels. They make my walk that much more noticable :bigsmile: . I can walk ,and dance in heels ok but I do have to buy the gel insoles for them because I have high arches

    I feel like a horse when I'm in heals, because all you here is clump clump clump. Boots and flats all the way.


    This...plus I'm 6' tall! How much taller do I really need to be?

    Love heels!! I am 5'11 and love my 5 to 6 inch heels and yes, I can run in those mofos..haha. I just bought 2 pairs this morning too!! Yeah ME!!!!....lol

    Wish I had your confidence! I am 5'11" as well and feel like a giant in my heels! My awesome girlfriends make me feel sexy in them, so I usually wear them out on girls nights, but I rarely wear them anywhere else.
    Maybe that is something I should be working on.

    Yeah YOU is right! :)

    you should definitely embrace the heels with your height! guys like me need dance partners! :wink:
  • I never wear heels! But I have size 10/11 feet so I think it just looks really unappealing on my feet anyways.
  • The trick to walking in high heels is to take small steps. Good posture, chin up, shoulders soft, bottom tucked. I used to be a runway model and we learned it in modeling school. It's a lot easier if the shoes fit properly. So put on the good posture, put on the awesome shoes, and show your stuff! (Believe me, I'm no kid anymore - I got a beautiful pair of heels for my daughter's wedding and danced in them all night.)

    I don't walk in heels not at all honey I strut..I wear anything between 3.5 to 6 inches..I don't do alot of outside walking in heels just because I don't want to hit a crack or anything but if I know the area will be clear I will wear them outside and strut..Don't wear heels if you aren't comfy.

    Try looking it up on youtube - even if the tutorials don't actually help, they are funny :)

    I can walk in them, I can even tap dance in them (though tap shoes are usually around 2 - 2 1/2 inches) but I prefer my flip-flops any day of the week. I rarely wear them and all my high heels are on the other side of the globe. But I'm kind of a hippie, out-doorsy type, heels don't really fit well with my personality.
