Do you pick your shoe<\/a> based on style or comfort?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Generally speaking, they say flats are better for your physique right? But did you know that women actually need a little bit of heel to support the natural arch in their feet. Wearing completely flat shoes aren\u2019t good for you either and can lead to some back aches.<\/p>\n

We also know that wearing stilettos on a daily basis isn\u2019t great for us either, so how do you decide when to wear heels or flats? How high should your heels be? What type of flats support you best?<\/p>\n

Some Points to Consider<\/h2>\n

1. Which are Sexier – Flats or Heels?<\/h3>\n

Firstly, flats can be just as stylish as heels. These days there are usually the flat\/heel equivalent to a shoe design. It\u2019s how you wear it that makes it work and how you project your inner confidence. Heels often make us feel sexier or more confident because of those few inches of added height, but that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t look flattering in a pair of flats. We say pick the best shoe for the occasion and wear whatever makes you feel best.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

2. Follow this Tip from French Girls<\/h3>\n

Here\u2019s a little rule of thumb the ever chic French women use, if you\u2019re wearing a long dress or skirt – opt for heels. If you\u2019re wearing a mini skirt of a shorter dress – opt for flats.<\/p>\n

3. Save the Heels for a Special Event or Occasion<\/h3>\n

Perhaps you rather dress for comfort rather than style; then why not save your heels for special occasions or events? On a daily basis, rock your ballerina flats or trainers or loafers. But when you\u2019re heading out to a wedding or a special date, switch them up for a sassy pair of heels. This shows that you\u2019ve made an effort to dress-up and that while you may be laid-back on a daily basis; that you can clean up really nice when you need to.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

4. Ace the Corporate Look<\/h3>\n

In most job interviews or corporate jobs, wearing a classic black pump heel works best. It\u2019s not only that it looks more polished, but it also gives you added height, more confidence, makes you feel slightly more empowered and you have a powerful step as you walk around the office space. If you don\u2019t like to wear them on a daily basis to work, keep a spare at your desk that you can switch into whenever you have a big presentation, a big meeting or need to greet a special guest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

5. Put on Your Dancing Shoes<\/h3>\n

Now this is often a silent debate for most women as we dress up for a night out. Do we wear a pair of heels that fit the theme of the night but we KNOW will kill our feet by the time we\u2019re mid-way through the night dancing to our favourite tunes? Or do we wear a pair of stylish and comfortable flats that may not give the same visual effect as a pair of heels do, but it\u2019ll have us up on the dance floor all night and that may translate to having more fun and looking more confident. Either find a pair of heels that don\u2019t hurt your feet too much, or go for those flats because the pain just isn\u2019t worth it by the time you feel like walking barefoot along the streets.<\/p>\n
