How To Walk In Heels - Sexy Heels For Sexy Legs

Everyone knows that heels are sexy, they make legs looks longer and more defined, but how to walk in heels? Well that takes a bit of practice. It isn't sexy if you're in your heels and stumbling around grabbing onto things (or people!) to balance yourself. In this case you probably look drunk!

I spent years wearing heels day in day out, only taking them off when it was time for bed. I did some ridiculous things in my heels like running (fast) for buses and climbing a ladder in my office when I needed supplies from a high shelf. I also spent way too many hours standing in music venues that were sloped for viewing. Imagine the balls of your feet being on fire and you might have an idea of just how bad that hurt!

So after years of feet abuse, I put my heels back into their boxes and left them untouched in the closet for a couple of years. Now they're gradually being worn again, but it took a while to get used to walking in heels after such a long break. Here's my advice for someone starting out wearing heels, or someone like me who needed a bit of a revisit to get used to them again.

When I started wearing heels again it was just at home to be on the safe side. I had the advantage of many years worth of experience wearing heels so it wasn't too hard for me to get back used to them, but I wouldn't have worn them outside at first. If you're someone who isn't familiar with wearing heels then definitely practice at home first, preferably on flat carpet.

I found that a great way to get used to standing in heels for long periods of time was to wear them when I was ironing. You really notice your posture and can correct it so you stand straighter if need be. That's another reason why I love wearing heels, it really makes you stand better because you need to be balanced. Putting on a pair of heels can instantly make you feel leaner and longer, plus the sexy walking that goes hand in hand with wearing high heels is a bonus!

I've had many foot ailments due to wearing heels, but the worst was blisters on the balls of my feet. This happens when the shoe slips as you walk and is very, very painful. It's a nightmare when this happens as you really can't walk barefoot, let alone in shoes after this has happened. As putting your feet up for a few days is the only way to save on pain, I'd highly recommend precaution. Who has 4 days where they can just sit with their feet up?

That's where 'party feet' come in useful. They're little gel half soles that fit into the flat bit of the shoe to stop slipping. I wish that I'd discovered this product way before I actually did because they really help to stop any soreness on the balls of the feet. Not only do they stop slipping, they also cushion that part of the foot, so when you walk you have a bit of padding between the shoes and your feet. If you want to know how to walk sexy, I'd definitely recommend these!

• It's all about balance, once you're used to standing still in heels, then you should find it easier to walk in them. As I mentioned, ironing is a great way to get used to standing in heels, but if you don't iron, then wear them while brushing your teeth, or washing up. You'll be adding a little glamour to boring tasks!
• Once you're comfortable standing, wear your heels while you're doing stuff around the house, no real need to walk up and down in a straight line to learn how to walk in heels. You won't be doing that when you wear them to work, or for a night out. Get used to wearing them in familiar instances like going up and down stairs and lifting and carrying stuff.
• If you wear heels around the house and do things as normal, you'll be walking in heels outside like a pro in no time!
  
• Remember to keep legs close and toes out front for the best sexy heel walk.

The Stiletto is a different breed of heel and my personal heel of choice. The Stiletto has a spike heel and it takes more balance to walk in this kind than any other. You're basically putting all of your weight onto the ball of the foot with this style as the heel is so thin.

To me, there are heels and there are heels, and the Stiletto is the sexiest of them all. It may take a bit longer to get the hang of walking in Stilettos, but when you do I guarantee that you will feel extremely sexy and pleased with yourself. You'll probably get a lot of attention too as there's no sexy walk like a stiletto walk!
