Ahh shoes… they are our biggest weaknesse. Some comfy some not so but we all love a nice new pair. Here are some of my favourite new pairs and of course …some tips on shoes.
- Don’t ever get Gel Shoe Inserts. And if you don’t know what they are don’t Google it. Because they might seem like a good idea but trust me- they don’t work. In fact they make your feet feel more tired than ever before. (I learnt it the hard way on my graduation day)
- Which leads to my next point….Don’t go out in a new pair. What I tend to do is take at least 3 short walks before wearing them to a big event. First one is a local shop, then maybe a brunch (local) and a short walk. You want to absolutely rely on them and wear them in before going out.
- Choose smaller heel if it involves dancing. Don’t take me wrong I love my high heels but would avoid them going to a wedding. Life is short and way too short to spend your precious time uncomfortable on an evening you should enjoy it.
- Open sandals? A quick way to prepare your feet for an open shoe is plastic bags. Put a generous amount of lotion (any really) or Coconut Oil or anything moisturizing and wrap a plastic bag over your feet. Wear it for an hour or longer and once taken off your feet are back to being smooth and lovely.
