Good morning folks, that pain you feel at the end of a long night out, it is not a hangover and it`s not exhaustion. I`m talking about something worse_the pain caused by a seemingly evil malicious pair of high heels.
Generally, there are a few things to look out for when you`re shopping for stilettos. First, make sure the heels are of moderate proportions, not the towering Nicki Minaj variety . Save those for dinners out, where you`ll be sitting for most of the evening.
However, if you can`t let go, here are four tips for making the whole process less painful.
Shave down your heel: if you are willing to sacrifice a little height for the ability to walk through a room with ease, consider shaving down the heel. And the maximum that`s usually removed is around an inch.
Use moleskin: Also termed Second skin, moleskin is not actually animal hide but soft cotton flannel with adhesive backing. it is sold in sheets and available in mostdrug store. one can customize the shape of moleskin to cover any trouble spots you have on your feet. It molds to the shape of your feet better than bandage.
Get heels with ties or straps: You must have noticed how frustrating it is to deal with your feet slipping out of your heels the minute they leave the ground. Even worse, loose them from falling out. Heels with straps, ties or buckles over the ankle or feet offer a solution. Go for adjustable straps to accommodate swelling.
Pick a shape that affords optimal comfort: It`s amazing how much the shape of your shoe impacts the comfort. For instance, platforms cut down the distance your heels are elevated above the balls of your feet. That implies they`re not as taxing on your arch, which is especially good when you`re towering on at least three inches.
