Clothes makes a woman happy but a good heel can give her confidence and a lot of sex appeal.

I like women to see my shoes as objects of beauty, as gems outside the realm of fashion, within their own universe.  Shoes are not an accessory; they’re an attribute.  You should open a shoebox as if opening a present.  Voila!

He is so right.  A good heel tends to elongate and give shape to the leg, that is why women would suffer the pain and discomfort of high heels for long periods of time because they do boost women’s morale and self-confidence, thus, being literally a fashion victim. lol  No pain, no gain!!!

Having said that, there are high heels that are so well made, though could cost the Earth, but despite their towering heights they can be reasonably comfy.

Victoria Beckham is an advocate of high heels. Kudos to her, she makes high-heels wearing looks so natural, elegant and normal.  It is seldom that she goes about her business without her trusted high heels even when seen with her children, with Harper on her hip.

It is better to buy the more expensive shoes because they are better made and more comfortable and as such, it is important that they are looked after good and proper.

The same shoes should not be worn every day.  Give shoes a time to breathe and dry up.  Feet sweat copiously especially during the summer!!!

If in case  shoes become smelly, you can rejuvenate them and vanish the smell by putting orange peel inside the shoes, overnight and the next morning, you will be rewarded by citrusy smelling shoes.

The best time to shop for shoes is during the end of the day when your feet are swollen and tired from all those standing around and walking here and there.  This will ensure that the fitting of your shoes is much better and prevent pinching the next day.  Always try both pair.  Left and right feet are different from each other.

Shoe fittings

The best time to buy shoes is in the afternoon, when your feet are slightly larger. Otherwise your new shoes would only fit you comfortably in the morning and would excruciatingly pinch in the afternoon.


Take also into consideration that your feet are not of the same size. One is slightly larger or smaller (whichever way you want to see it!) than the other and therefore trying both the pair of shoes is advisable.

The shape of the feet are also different from others. There are some feet, which will suit wide-fitting shoes and some would be ideal for slender shapes.
