Don't Get Along with Super High Heels? Then Let's Talk about Great Alternatives for All Occasions
Some girls
absolutely love heels and with good reasons. They've been proven to give you
extra sex appeal, they make you taller, give you a sexier posture that
enhances your legs and behind and can also feature some really beautiful
designs. However, they just aren't for everyone. Some people never really got
the hang of heels in the first place. Others had to give them up due to ankle
or knee problems that make wearing them unbearable. Others who are already
tall feel self conscious as their heels elevate them to professional basketball
player heights.
If for whatever reason you are like me who don't get along with heels, then you may
find it hard to understand the obsession with high heeled footwear a lot of women seem to
have. I am one of those who can find the most attractive and fun to wear flat footwear [or footwear with more acceptable, comfortable heels]! After all, when you shop for shoes, all those pretty looking stilettos
and cool chunky heels just look like a whole world of pain - something our feet denitely don't deserve.
Here, we
take a look at alternatives to sky high heels and when and where to wear them:
Ballet Pumps
If you want
shoes that are pretty, feminine and also classy, then ballet pumps should be
something of a staple for you while you're avoiding heels. You can choose them
in just about any color or texture, from fun animal print designs and sparkly
pumps, through to extremely chic suede ballet shoes in sophisticated colors.
There is a variation on the humble ballet shoe to match just about every
outfit. They are great for
work, and can even [if you pick the right style] work for the most formal of
occasions [some people even wear them to balls or their own weddings!].
Flat Boots
There are
all kinds of great flat boots you can find that offer warmth,
style and above all, no heel. Cavalry style boots with a low heel can also be
an option if you can live with a little extra height [or want it], as they are
very comfortable and the extra support around the ankle make them feel less
hard to walk in than other heels. Sheepskin lined 'Ugg' style boots may have
their naysayers, but they can actually look nice as a relaxed style with
leggings or jeans, whereas black leather ankle boots with or without
embellishments like laces, studs or fringing can give a more edgy, streetwear
look that can work well with short skirts and tights.
Delicate Flat Sandals
If you
prefer something more delicate than a ballet shoe for a special evening, flat sandals
that show a lot of foot and feature pretty things like beads, chains or thin
leather straps can be an elegant choice. Even outside of the summer season
these can be comfortable yet really girly and pretty especially
for formal things like weddings or lavish parties when worn with an equally
feminine evening dress.
Kitten Heels
If you
don't mind an extra inch of height, then kitten heels can give you some of the
benefits of higher heels in terms of flattering your legs and giving a more
ladylike posture while also being astonishingly comfortable. Most people are
amazed by how easy these small, thin heels are to wear when they first try them
as they don't really look like they'll be comfortable, but that deceptiveness
is part of their charm! Better yet, you can get just about any kind of shoe you
like with this kind of heel, from knee high boots to pointy toed professional
'power shoes', or gorgeous evening shoes.
Between
these four styles, you can really build up a shoe collection that will have you
covered for just about any event while also leaving you able to walk
comfortably and not stray too far from your natural height! Think about these
styles next time you are in a shoe shop and you'll be sure to find plenty of
great shoe designs to love and make your own!
