How to rock it in heels

Gone are the days when women were not interested in putting on pencil heels because they were afraid it might affect their womb leading to birth complications. Due to this reason women preferred wedge and block heels rather than the pencil heels.

However a sizeable number of women continue to opt for high heeled shoes claiming such shoes make them look beautiful and elegant. Whiles some ladies admire such shoes they confessed they found it difficult wearing them because of their bulk in addition to sores they get on their feet.

Here are a few tips for those who love to wear pencil heels

1.Women should make sure they are wearing the right size shoe.The number one mistake women make would probably be not having the right shoe size for their foot. Your foot size changes over the years, even as much as one full size, especially after having kids. Have your feet sized once a year, and do it if you’ve never had it done. Have your feet measured when you’re buying shoes, for width and for length as well.

2. Educate yourself on your own personal foot type. Ladies can know their foot size by wetting their foot and stepping onto a piece of construction paper. When you make an impression, it will show you how much your foot is flattening or how high of an arch you have. You can look at a person’s foot type and see why they are having pain.

3. One can also try a thick heel because the thicker the heel, the better. Avoid thin heels, the stilettos. They cause your foot to wobble around. Sometimes, the dress is just going to call for a stiletto, as long as it’s something that’s occasional. If you’re wearing stilettos every day, you might want to consider a chunkier heel style and change it up a bit.

4. Women should always try a shoe with more coverage up top. The more coverage you have on the top of your foot, the better. Sometimes high-heeled shoes are actually something you can wear all day and they don’t bother your feet as much. If you’re prone to blisters and friction, you might want to try that style, something that covers more of the top of your foot.

5. Thos over-the-counter shoe inserts really do help. One thing to try are the over-the-coutner products that market themselves for high heels. They are called metatarsal or ball of the foot pads. They are oval-shaped pads that go under the ball of the foot, usually made from a silicone gel.

They combat soreness under the ball of the foot. Especially if it’s made of silicone, it will hold your foot steadier in the shoe so your feet aren’t sliding forward as much, which will protect your toes from friction and blisters.

There you have it folks, you can wear your pencil heels without hurting.
