Walking in heels!

May 11th, 2008 8:00 am MDT

So, You Really Want to Walk in These Heels?
Sergio Rossi’s creative director, Edmundo Castillo, swears you can — comfortably — if you follow his advice...
1. “Change heel heights several times a day. Feet and legs shouldn’t be allowed to mold themselves to any one shoe shape." 2. “Shoes are an emotional accessory; hurt your feet, hurt your feelings.” 3. “Befriend a salesperson who will tell you if a shoe will actually feel as good as it looks.” 4. “If you feel all the weight in the front of your foot, this heel’s your arch enemy — literally.” 5. “Your foot needs to ‘sit’ in a shoe. If you can wedge two fingers between your sole and the shoe — bye-bye!” 6. “Platforms should be no more than one-and-a-half inches high — or you’re dangling off a cliff.” 7. “Think Cinderella: A heeled shoe must fit perfectly. Faking it with the wrong size will get ugly.” 8. “Don’t shoe shop with swollen feet — e.g., when it’s hot or right after exercise.” 9. “To elongate your legs, ankle straps should sit above the ankle bone.” 10. “Still wobbling when you walk in your heels? Practice!”

    Re: Walking in heels! Lauren Jayne McCarthy May 28th, 2008 11:36 pm MDT I would agree about avoiding many common mistakes on what heels to buy.  1st, i never buy any heels without trying them on, 1st they might look good on the shelf but you have to try them on to see if they actually look good on You.  lso its important they are actually comforatble an fit properly, after all I have to walk in them.  I never buy any heels ovr 4 inches tall, usually not over 3 and 1/2 inches. (which the one on this pciture are).  I can walk and stand for hours in them and not kill my feet.  Buy heels to match the outfit, wearing shoes or any other item  that dosn't match your outfit dosn't work very well.
