Friday December 21, 2007 • Leave a Comment 

There are just some of occasions that it is best to wear high heel shoes. We wouldn’t dare think of wearing flats with a nice formal or a cocktail dress. Some office suits just look better if we wear high heel shoes. It is important to think about a few things when you are purchasing high heel shoes to make your experience wearing them much better.

Tip 1: This one may seem obvious but you will be amazed at how many people overlook this tip. Make certain that the high heel shoes that you purchase actually fit the size and shape of your foot. You cannot imagine how many women end up shoving their feet into high heel shoes that are too small. Or worse yet the only size left in a popular style of high heel shoes at that particular store are too big for you. If the high heel shoes fit your foot well, they are much easier to walk in.

Tip 2: Go for off-brands that offer fashion without the high dollar price tag. There are many styles of high heel shoes that are cloned and look just like the brand names. If you clothing budget is tight, go with the off-brands to find a pair that looks like the brand names without the high dollar price tag.

Tip 3: Walk around in the high heel shoes that you want to buy. Make certain that the height isn’t too high for you. Make certain that the heel width is one that you can balance on. If you are wobbling in the store on the new pair of high heel shoes, it is best to find a different pair that you can walk in much easier.

High heel shoes make our legs look longer and just help our general appearance. However, it can be a challenge at times to stay comfortable in high heel shoes. One of the first things to consider for comfort when wearing high heel shoes is to purchase a pair that fits. Don’t buy the shoes if they don’t fit well and feel comfortable when you walk around in the store.

Practice walking in your high heel shoes so that you can get a feel for them. This will make it easier to walk and not be self-conscious. You’ll find that you have fewer accidental trips this way as well.

Remove your high heel shoes when you do not have to wear them. For example, put on a pair of flat slip-ons to drive places and then switch to your high heel shoes when you arrive at your destination. If you are wearing high heel shoes at work, slip them off under your desk. You can keep a pair of flat slip on shoes to wear while you’re feet are hidden in your cubicle.

Wear high heel shoes that are reasonably comfortable to start with. Remove your high heels when your feet won’t be exposed. Wear flat slip on shoes whenever possible to give your feet a break and a rest.



Sea Salt Scrubs and High Heels

It is important to keep your feet looking good for your high heel shoes. After all, part of the attraction for high heel shoes is how those feet look in them. I think that nothing can ruin a pair of nice high heel shoes more than set of feet that haven’t been cared for. Hose can only hide so much.

One of the best ways to take care of your feet so that they will look good in high heel shoes is with a sea salt scrub. A sea salt scrub is a combination of sea salt and a moisturizing gel such as Aloe Vera gel. You combine the sea salt and the gel together until it is a slightly runny paste. You can store it in a plastic container with a lid and leave it in your shower.

Each time that you shower, rub the sea salt scrub over your feet. Do the heels, toes and even the top of your feet. You will remove rough spots and have softer skin on your feet. Also, a sea salt scrub on your feet will keep your looking younger and more attractive so that you can show them off in your high heel shoes.
