Let’s put the facts straight ! Most of us have suffered wearing heels in our early days . Yes, we had to face some embarrassing situations like slipping , falling and our shoes coming off while walking  . Today , we’re going to learn how to practise walking in heels . No, it isn’t a cake walk .

 

1. START SMALL
Always start small . Initially , invest in wedges / kitten heels . Wear it only on alternate days for about a month. You will automatically notice the difference as you walk around .
Once you cross the “training” period , you will notice that you walk more comfortably with a lot of confidence .
 
2. PRACTICE
Practice at home . If you work from home or are a student , try wearing your brand new pair of heels at home . Walk around the house , sit , run , squat and do all the crazy things . Trust me , it helps!
 
3.THE “F” WORD
Irrespective of the brand / price , the “Fit” of the shoes matter.  Even if the shoes are slightly loose , you’re in trouble. Yes , there are gel pads and insoles available for your rescue  .
But nothing beats a shoe that fits like a glove!
 
4. ADJUST YOUR PACE
If you’re beginner , make sure you adjust your pace depending on the type of streets you’re walking in . If it’s a bumpy road , walk slow . If the floor’s wet , put more pressure with each step or you might slip.

5.QUALITY

Don’t blame yourself if you aren’t able to walk in a new pair of heels . Remember to invest in quality than in in quantity . A sturdy pair of shoes is all you need to walk around with confidence .
If you picked up some shoes that are flimsy with pencil heels , well..good luck with that!

6. SIZE ISSUES
As time goes by , shoes expand  . The more often you wear it , the more it will expand .
Keep insoles and gel pads at disposal .

7. BIG FOOT
If you have a wide / big foot , try sandals with heels instead of pumps .
More open space is all you need to walk comfortably .

8. DAY TO DAY LIFE

Can heels be worn everyday?
It depends on your lifestyle.

9. INVESTMENTS

If you’re starting out , make sure to invest in black & nude heels . They go well with all the outfits.
Psst..Nude heels can make your legs look  ridiculously long  {Legs for days!}

10. NO PAIN , NO GAIN 

This is an apt quote for heels .
Are all heels extremely comfortable?
No !
Then , why do you wear them?
Because they elongate your legs and make you look good!
How can you resist a good pair of heels, no?
