How To Walk In High Heels

High heels have been the fashion statement for women for years and no doubt this statement will continue in the far future. For some women it can be quite a challenge to wear heels and feel comfortable at the same time.

Four out of every five women wear high heels shoes in their lives and every woman wants to purchase the latest high heels. Heels have become more of a necessity for all types of women especially those who are not satisfied with their height so wearing that extra few inches gives them that extra boost of confidence.

Wearing high heels can be described as an art once you have mastered how to strut your stuff while wearing them.

How to walk in heels then becomes easy. You'll be choosing whichever type of fashion heels you want to walk in! So how can women enjoy wearing heels with confidence? That is very simple... Learn how to walk in heels! Here are 7 steps:

1. The first thing to do is to score the bottom of the heel. Use either a pair of scissors or a knife; this will give the shoe a grip and prevents the shoe (and you!) from slipping.
2. The next step is to stand up in your sexy heels. You need to plant your feet into the ground but remember to relax. Stand up tall and proud to avoid getting weak in the legs. High heels are designed to make the hips sway from side to side to leave a lasting impression on anyone who sees you.
3. Taking the first steps in heels: take the step from heel to toe and again heel to toe. Make sure you place your heels down first, then the rest of your foot. Avoid the urge to walk toe to heel as this will put strain on your ankles.
4. Let the hips help to keep the stability on the legs by rolling them (this will happen while you are wearing the women's heels). The hips should be relaxed and middle of the legs should be strong. Be sure to avoid putting the weight onto your ankles as it can lose the whole balance of the body weight.
5. It is ideal to buy your first pair of heels with support around the ankle and possibly cushioning on the heel and toe area of the shoe. This will ensure maximum comfort and stability.
6. Take small strides when walking in heels and pumps as they are designed in that way. Even if you have the habit of walking fast and in long strides, slow down. Walking in small steps also allows you to show off a little bit.
7. Practice walking in heels at home and make sure that, not only they are comfortable, but even more importantly, you are comfortable with them.
