Heels

I always wear heels and the higher the better. You do get used to them. Honestly, you have to practice. I especially had to practice walking up and down stairs. I get my heels from all over so there isn't any particular place I can recommend. Enjoy wearing them. They make your legs look like they go on forever.0

ITA with previous posters, start small and work up. You'll be in six inchers in no time I buy a lot on ebay, but when you first start dabbling in stillettos and such, go to a store and try them on. That way you're sure everything is right.
Heels rock!0 -
Yes, you get used to it. I like mine sky high, my style is anything tall and cute.
the last pair I bought were 6.5" Steve Madden gold glitter mary jane pumps from TJ Maxx0 -
I am most comfortable in heels above any other shoe, Pretty much any style0

I wear heels at work. Not normally more than 2-3 inches--anything more than that I found to be inappropriate.
I have to wear those sticky-gel things in the heel because I have a narrow foot. They're painful because of that, but you get used to walking in them--it's just a different gait.
I used to try to wear nice shoes when I started dating my boyfriend, but he was always mad at me :P. Every since then 99% of off-time is athletic shoes.
I love DSW or Marshalls.0 -
I have a friend who says I look like a duck when walking in my 5 inchers. It's true. Those suckers hurt after a while so I prefer mine to be about 4 inches.
Stilettos scare the hell out of me so I usually stay away from the really thin ones.
Other than that, I love heels!!!0 -
I can't wear heels. They don't like me. I wasted my money on them. I trip inside the house and outside. They hurt after awhile and I end up putting band-aid's on. My sister and my female cousin's can but not me.0

A good platform wedge is the best find for someone that doesn't know how to walk in heels but wants the added height.0

I've only been wearing heels for a few years and like you it was hard to get used to at first. I started small and worked my way up. Wedges are great but my favorite is probably 5 in platforms boot style, they are almost as comfortable to me as sneakers. Added benefits include great workout for the legs and rear and they make your legs look longer, always a bonus when you're short and surrounded by tall guys.0

Im so rubbish at walking in heels. Now Im trying wedges and it seems to be a more successful venture at the minute. Well until the start to hurt and I have to take them off! :laugh: xx0

OMG they are beautiful!! However there is no way in the world I could walk in them. They are lovely though x0 -
Love heels..I wear them everyday. Shoedazzle.com is where I buy most of mine but if I walk by a store and get reeled in by a pretty pair what am I to do?
I think I have always worn heels and don't remember learning to walk in them but get a kick out of watching my friend who never wears them trip all over the place when she tries. :laugh:
Do you find they're of decent quality? I've thought about getting a pair or two but I wasn't sure about them.0 -
I have gotten the two pairs I have in different places not particular place:laugh: However I Mine are high and what I have done is practice a few times wearing them around the house for a little while before the event is here **husband does not mind** Oh and liquor helps once you start getting tired of them0

Life is too short to be fat or wear sensible shoes!
It has nothing to do with the brand or price. It is all about the attitude. I get asked "are those at all comfortable?" all the time. I simply answer... comfort is not the issue if you strap heels on.0 -
YUP the type of heel I likes!My favorite Heels.

I've worn HIGH heels for 20+ years- LOVE them! (Geez, I'm showing my age!)
Start out wearing them around your house- cleaning or just watching tv, a few hours at a time.
Better to wobble at home than at the restaurant/club. Then when you are comfortable you can wear them out0 -
I never could get the hang of it, so I just gave up! lol

haha nice(;0 -
I buy the more expensive heels because they dont wear down as much and are so much more easy on your feet.0
-
I love heels but after years of wearing them daily when I was younger, my feet are in bad shape now so I can only wear them every so often. I usually save them for special occasions. Wedges are definately easier to walk in if you are not use to a skinny heal0
-
as others said practice
& start with wedges they are much easier
thirdly, when you step down don't do a light delicate step down (i see lots of girls do this quick light step thing and it makes their heel slip sideways and they wobble), step down hard on your heel first and roll the rest of your foot down
(stepping down on the heel first instead of a straight step down gives you control over the heel)0 -
I wear heels 'ery single day!! minimum 3"... not all day but for sure every day! :glasses:0
-
Look up. Focus on something straight ahead. Walk tall. Lead with hips and boobs. Don't look down!
Edinburgh has cobbled streets and lots of pubs.....but heels rock!
Actually I would like to point out I now live on a farm with very few opportunities to go out and wear heels, but I do remember....Sexy sexy ...nostalgic?
Have fun! Oh and if you fall you need some mates to pull you back up! Haha0 -
I have not worn high heels in a while, and went to more of a lower heel. Now my mother and sisters they can wear some heels!!! I don't see how they walk around so graceful in them. After an hour, I would need to pull them off. They do look great. Maybe I might gradually add on an inch as I drop weight.0

Ps I remember a friends saying how gorgeous her shoes were..... Then saying that she couldn't walk up stairs or dance! Make sure they are comfy!0
-
if you're just starting out wearing heels, i recommend you find a pair you think is remotely comfortable, from payless! get used to them that way.
that's what i did. i wasn't about to waste a lot of money either breaking the shoes or my neck ;-)
good luck!!!0 -
I wear them sometimes. I don't like to wear them for too long. Especially if I need to walk.
The comfiest ones I have found are lower nine west ones. And the high end Kenneth Cole ones (not Reaction, these are hit or miss). They have so much padding, they are super comfy.
Also, if you are wearing a thinner heel, balance is really critical. In fact, before you put it on, place it on a flat surface and press into the heel, does it feel stable and balanced? If it does the odds are good it will be balanced for you. If it is wpbbly with your hand...you'll be wobbling too.
It does get easier with practice. Start with kitten heels and work your way up.0 -
