When it comes to looking stylish, nothing beats a gorgeous pair of high heels. Heels make your legs look longer, your body look slimmer, and your whole outfit just a little more polished. Unfortunately, for many women, they also make your feet hurt something awful!We’ve all been through it -those moments where our shoes go from high heels to heel no! As much as we love our stilettos, we don’t love how they leave us limping, blistered, and sore. There’s got to be a better way, right?Here are several neat ways to make your heels more comfortable
BUY THE RIGHT SIZE.
Feet can grow
larger as we get older and pregnancy can result in longer or wider feet, too).
TSo make sure you know your foot size or you get your feet measured wherever you buy your shoes.
Make sure there's a thumb's width between your longest toe and the front of the
shoe, to give your toes room to move. For heels, this means you may need to go
up a size to get a comfortable fit.
GO FOR
ROUND TOES.
Lucky for us, round-toed shoes are back in
style this season! Where pointy toes can wrench your big toe inward, causing
joint pain, crunched toes, and even the beginnings of bunions, round toes allow
your toes to lie flat and spread out naturally. That makes for much more
comfort. And if you can't swear off your pointy toes completely? Have some
round-toed shoes to alternate with the pointy ones.
DON’T GO TOO HIGH.
A heel that’s
of one to two inches is a good choice for comfort and foot health. Avoid three-
or four-inch heels, which put undue pressure on the ball and bones in the front
of your foot.
MAKE SURE THE WIDTH IS RIGHT.
Sometimes the toe isn't the
problem, it's the width. Many fashion shoes come in a standard medium width.
But if you have wide feet so when you find a pair of shoes you love, see if
they come in a wide width; if not, a shoemaker can usually stretch the shoes to
widen at the toes, enhancing the comfort of the shoe.
ALTERNATE.
Wearing heels for many days in a row can make
your feet feel ravaged. To maintain some comfort, switch between heels and a
flat pair of shoes. Although heels elongate your legs when you're wearing a
skirt, they are less important when you are wearing trousers, so give your feet
a rest on those days.
Hope the tips will help you.
