How To Walk in Heels

Posted by nofi.hidayanti at Januari 12, 2012 0 comments
The ability to walk in heels comes naturally after regular use and practice...but there's never any harm to learn the theories, right? Here are some tips on how to best walk in heels...:)
  1. Step with your heel down first, then let the sole follow quickly and smoothly.
  2. Walk with your toes pointing straight ahead or as close to straight ahead as possible.
  3. Swing your arms as you walk for balance.
  4. Keep your legs straight, close and parallel.
  5. Take smooth, even steps; consider shortening your stride a bit.
  6. When climbing stairs, make sure both sole and heel land together firmly and simultaneously on each step. When descending stairs, only the sole of the shoe needs to be planted on each step.
  7. Avoid walking on mud, grass, sand, gravel and grated surfaces, on which you can slip or sink. When in doubt, take off your heels and carry them across such questionable surfaces in your bare feet.
 Happy heel-ing, girls! :)

How To Measure Your Feet Length

Posted by nofi.hidayanti at Januari 12, 2012 0 comments
To know how long your feet is, below is a simple yet effective way to measure. We understand that most people have feet that come with different lengths between their right and left foot, therefore always measure both of your foot, and use the larger of the two as your feet length standard.
Happy measuring! :)
  1. Sit with your foot firmly on the floor, and your leg bent slightly forward so that your shin is slightly in front of your ankle. Trace the outline of your foot on top of a piece of paper. While tracing, hold the pencil or pen upright and perpendicular to the paper, do not hold it at an angle. 
  2. Use your pencil to draw straight lines touching the outermost points at the top, bottom, and both sides of the outline. 
  3. Use your ruler or measuring tape to measure the length from the bottom line to the top line that you drew in step 2. 
Repeat these steps for your other foot, and use the larger measurement of the two.
After measuring your feet length and matching it with our UP sizes, there is one more thing to be considered, which isfeet width.
  • Feet width can be classified as slimnormalwide, and very wide.
  • If you consider your feet as "wide" or "very wide", we advise you to go 1 size bigger.

On The Trip of My Heels

To make your heels comfortable for everyday wear, here are some tips you might mind useful...
Put on some moisturizing lotion. When wearing heels, using moisturizing lotion will keep your skin soft so that straps and buckles slide back and forth evenly, avoiding blisters and abrasions. Bring a small bottle of lotion to reapply if you start to feel your skin getting irritated.
Give your feet a break. When walking in heels, sit down every 20 minutes or so. If you're in the bathroom, sit down. Don't take your heels off, this will only allow the pain to worsen. They swell a bit after you take them off, which makes it harder to continue after.
Wear heels at least 2-3 times a week. When wearing flats, our feet grow accustomed to our weight being applied evenly. If we only put on heels once in a while, the weight fluctuation is a total shock and can cause a lot of irritation. Furthermore, wearing flip flops every day allows our feet to expand, making it harder to walk on a narrower sole.
Happy wearing heels, girls! :)
