It seemed like a good idea at the time. Last night they looked awesome in the store so you decided to wear them to work this morning. Big mistake. Each step you take makes you feel like you’re about to tip over. Normally you sprint down the hall from meeting to meeting. Today, you’re praying they cancel the meetings. You’ve got “High Heelitis”. You purchased high heels you can’t walk in. Do you ditch them and go back to the flats? If you want to, but there is a happy medium. Slow your roll, i.e., walk slower, use a shorter stride and next time, learn how to select the proper heel height and shoe before you purchase your high heels.

Selecting the proper heel height and shoe size is easier than you think if you use the resources available online. There is a good variety of information available online and I’ve included a few links below and a couple of them are notable. How To Find Your Ideal Heel Height from Shoes of Prey Design Studio was particularly useful because it allows you to design your entire shoe with a wide selection of different heel heights and sizes. Even if you don’t purchase the shoes you can get a better idea of the type of shoe that will fit your foot better.

Another notable stand out is the Howcast Video by podiatrist Emily Splichal. Dr. Splichal’s explanations are clear and concise and she provides more than two dozen video tips on how to walk in various styles of high heels. Viewing this expert information will help you make a more informed shoe selection and your feet will thank you for it. I included a variety of links below which includes the simple Wiki How, to advice from two foot doctors. So remember, yes, size really matters if you want to look professional and not topple over when you try to walk. Happy I LOVE My Feet DayS! and let me know if this helps you.

Carolyn's interest in feet began in college when she met a young lady who was born without arms. The student used her feet as hands by writing and eating with them. Everyone on campus was very impressed with that students' ability to overcome adversity and the respect and awe she garnered was well deserved. Carolyn earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Education and never forgot the young lady. Carolyn learned about the importance of good foot care from her mother, who was a diabetic. After Carolyn experienced foot pain she visited a podiatrist and discovered she had fallen arches. Carolyn traced the cause back to wearing flip flops that didn't provide arch support. Years later, after two pinky toe breaks, Carolyn's appreciation and respect for feet deepened and she wrote an ode to feet. In the spring of 2015 a talented illustrator brought her poem to life and Carolyn published My Feet: An Ode, which celebrates the wonderful versatility our feet provide us throughout our lifetime. Publishing My Feet: An Ode led to annual recognition of good foot care and appreciation. It was also the impetus for the Good Foot Care movement. Carolyn believes our feet tell a story about our lives. She is passionate about promoting good foot care and she is quickly becoming the " Ambassador of Feet". She is a Foot & Shoe Consultant and refers countless people to podiatrists. Carolyn is also the author of the award winning laugh out loud children's series, The Family Adventures of Princess Ladybug and Princess Ladybird. The series focuses on young siblings who are raised in separate households. Carolyn wrote two ebooks to help consumers purchase footwear.
