Heels have a way of making women not only look gorgeous but smart too. However, heels can be extremely painful if not worn right. As a matter of fact, any woman that can walk in heels deserves RESPECT! yes! I mean it. A woman who can walk in high heels with her head held high sure deserves some compliment.

....No matter how painful and uncomfortable heels can be, they forever remain a girl's best friend. However wearing heels for the first time or as a beginner can be very discomforting. Here are a few tips that will help  in the journey.

1. THE SIZE MATTERS:
when it comes to wearing high heels, pay attention to the size. Over-sized shoes will create much difficulties during walking because your feet will not be able to properly fit into the shoe making it too loose which might lead to your feet occasionally pulling out of the shoe while undersized shoes will be too tight causing pain which might lead to toe bumps, bunion and blisters.The wrong shoe size creates more discomfort and pain.

2. LEARN GRADUALLY:





If you have never walked on heels, starting out to learn with a 5 inch high heel might be a recipe for disaster. it is advisable to start with a 2 inch shoe and gradually graduate as you learn and get use to the feeling. Once you are able to comfortably walk on a 2 ' heel you can the progress to 3" and soon you will be able to walk in those killer heels of yours. Gradually learning how to walk in heels help you walk in them like a pro whereas jumping straight to a 5" shoe while learning will create much discomfort and may alter your walking posture.

3. DON'T RUSH:
when walking on heels, it is very important to slow down. Don't expect to walk as fast as you normally do or take your normal long strides. Attempts to take long strides can lead to a great fall.

4. BE CONSCIOUS OF THE REST OF YOUR BODY:

while walking, make sure your body is relaxed, do not tilt forward or backward. Let the rest of your body provide balance for your shoes while you visualize yourself walking on a straight line and Walk heel to toe. (click to read more).

5. TAKE TIME OUTS:

Keep in mind that it is no shame to take a sit now and then to give your feet a rest, so that you can comfortably walk once you are on your feet again. whenever and where ever you can sit, sit.
