You may have worn your high heels on many occasions, but do you really know how to wear and walk them properly to maintain the high esteem? Walking on high heels is no small feat, it can be a painful experience especially if you do not walk on them often or you are a first timer. Here’s some tips on how you can wear them comfortably and yet project the image you want.
1. Firstly, you must be able to stand on your high heels properly. Practice standing in front of a full-length mirror by turning slightly to each side to check your posture and profile.
2. Try walking a short distance with your high heels on to feel your weight and adjust your balance.
3. Do keep your legs as straight and close together as you walk. With each step, point your feet as straight in front of you as you can. Start with small and slow steps and as you gain your confidence, you may take bigger steps.
4. Continue to walk across the room to and forth, turning different directions, and stopping without wobbling on your high heels. Once you’re comfortable with this, try the same thing on different floor surfaces, and remember to start off slowly with each one.
5. When it comes to actually walking comfortably, practice, practice, practice. Wearing high heels is a totally different walking experience, and if you take it for granted, you’ll not only end up with sore feet, but possibly an injury.
6. If you know you’ll be slow dancing in your high heels, you should practice side-to-side stepping, as well as turning slowing in your high heels before actually hitting the dance floor.
7. Last but not the least, you must be comfortable with your shoes.
