Get Comfy in Your Heels

Celebrities make walking in heels look like cheesecake (not that they touch the stuff). But behind every step lies neatly disguised hours of painful practice. Seriously, high heel walking should be an Olympic sport. We understand that. So, Tiza's here to help with tips on how to walk in heels, look hot mid strut, and save the sprains for the soccer field.

Practice, practice, practice. Oh, did we mention practice? Get comfy in your shoes BEFORE the big event. Avoid the stiff-kneed robotic walk by spending time in your heels at home. For the seriously uncoordinated, tie pillows around your torso and wear a helmet.

Kidding. Kind of.

When buying shoes, consider height. What are you used to? If you've worn nothing but sneakers for years, go with a lower heel with a sturdy strap--something that stays bound to your foot when you lift it off the ground. If you're a high heel expert, exercise your right to a few extra inches, by all means. But use caution. The most super of models still fall down.

Consider terrain. Where will you be trekking? Through potentially hazardous parking lots or slick tile floor? Make sure your shoes have adequate traction. Perhaps a bit of rubber sole. Practice walking down your driveway or spin around in the kitchen. Again--pillows if necessary.

Practice walking up and down stairs. Very vital.

Alright. You're prepped. Tune in next time for fine-tuned stiletto techniques for the big event.
