Looking to add another pair of high heels to your collection? If so, follow the advice of Edmundo Castillo (Sergio Rossi's Creative Director):
- Change the heel heights several times a day. Feet and legs shouldn't be allowed to mold themselves to any one shoe shape.
- Shoes are an emotional accessory; hurt your feet, hurt your feelings.
- Befriend a salesperson who will tell you if a shoe will actually feel as good as it looks.
- If you feel all the weight in the front of your foot, then the heel is literally your arch enemy.
- Your foot needs to "sit" in a shoe. If you can wedge two fingers between your sole and the shoe---bye-bye!
- Platforms should be no more than one-and-a-half inches high--or your dangling off a cliff.
- Think Cinderella: A heeled shoe must fit perfectly. Faking it with the wrong size will get ugly.
- Don't shoe shop with swollen feet--e.g, when it's hot or right after exercise.
- To elongate your legs, ankle straps should sit above the ankle bone.
- Still wobbling when you walk in your heels? Practice!
