High Heels to High Confidence

Research shows that the reason most women wear high heels is that it boasts their confidence and somehow allows them to have a high level of esteem for themselves.

So what is it about a 6 inch high, heel piercing spike that makes a woman want to walk on it all day..

I for one, somehow feel that only a woman very sure about herself and extremely comfortable in their skin can carry off a pair of mind melting heel. Someone who is insecure and already thinks lowly of herself will never be able to achieve the right kind of balance.

High heels also create a nicer figure, they elongate your leg & create a more toned shape with the added advantage of increasing your height and they even make your bum look nicer. It actually gives you a certain level of confidence to wear high heels too.

There's just something about slipping on a high heeled shoe that does that to you. For me it’s about the pleasure of wearing heel and looking down at people. And the sound they make - it's the sound of class, femininity, it's sexy and empowering. When you walk through a long silent corridor with nothing but the clicking of your high heels and everyone turns to look at you, that a statement one makes.

High heels are uncomfortable and make walking more difficult. Prolonged use can injure the feet, knees and back. So why do women keep wearing them?

Yes! The short answer seems to be that shallow. Women in heels are more likely to attract favourable notice.

In Sense And Sensibility, Jane Austen describes the character Elinor Dashwood as having a "delicate complexion, regular features, and... remarkably pretty figure". But Austen describes Elinor's sister, Marianne, as "still handsomer. Her form, though not so correct as her sister's, in having the advantage of height, was more striking".

In addition to making women taller, high heels force the back to arch, pushing the bosom forward and the buttocks rearward, thus accentuating the female form.

Someone great shoe maker from the past said something about the science of the high heeled shoe - it does something to stimulate the wearer sexually. By the angle or pressure or something, I don't know if it's true though.

But what I do know is that for any woman anytime it is very important to respect herself and to feel very secure about herself, it doesn’t matter how she looks, also not indicating that wearing high heel would make you prettier but that will be one thing you do for yourself.

To wear a pair of hurting shoes and walking in them all day is your choice, one that you make. So out of the 10 choices you this week keeping your family, your work, your guy in mind, this is one that is all about yourself. Can you love yourself before anyone else, because that is exactly what high heels teach you, to take responsibility of yourself and no one else for just one day.

For me high heels are like a calling, there is nothing that can cheer me up more than a pair of pretty shoes on a bad day. I can shop for clothes but they won’t be of any use if I turned fat, or they just may not suit me in any way but shoes, they always look nice, every kind and each type. They will not disappoint me and they will give that one extra bit of confidence if nothing else can motivate me.
