#slingback
Someone dropped a message into my box and asked their name to be kept private.
Any tips to someone new to the CD game about heels? Like what type and style would be best for someone who has never worn them. I also want something sexy yet economical. And what is the size difference for men and womens shoes? Thank you.
Sizing would be your men’s size + 2, if you live in the US. I’m an 8 men’s, 10 women’s.
For tips, it depends on what you’re comfortable with, but I tend to keep the arch around 3.5-4.5 inches. If you have a 6″ heel with a 2″ platform, that’s a 4″ arch.
I’ve found that slingback heels are more comfortable for longer periods of wear. Sandals can be very nice too. Some people will say that if you’re starting out, start with a small heel and work your way to taller heels, but I disagree because the difference between a 2″ kitten heel and a 5.5″ platform stiletto is night and day. Honestly, if the arch is UNDER 3.5″ even *I* can’t even walk in them; it’s just too awkward. If you want to walk in a certain heel, practice walking in thoseheels.
