Majority of ladies have at least a pair of heels in their shoe closet, if not several pairs.

Heels compliment an outfit enhancing them to be more classy and elegant.

This is especially for dinner dates, cocktail parties, weddings or corporate occasions.

Nonetheless, this crucial item of an outfit could be a nuisance sometimes.

This is due to the competing issues of comfort vs beauty and elegance.

Here's how to still look amazing in heels while maintaining comfort;

1. Wear the right size

This is a very vital determinant of comfort in heels.

A smaller or bigger shoe will be most uncomfortable and could eventually hurt your feet.

How will you even be able to walk in them in the first place?

Make sure you know your size and what kind of feet you have (slender or wide) for the perfect heel.

2. Choose the type of heel wisely

Chunky heels are the most comfortable shoes ever!

They provide both support and comfort.

The sharper the heel, the more effort you will need to balance your feet.

Heels with some sort of platform also help in providing that extra support and balance that ladies need.

This also depends on the height of the heel. Six- inch heels need some extra balance especially if you are not used to them.

Shorter heels like three or four inches are a lot more easier to manoeuvre.

However, find the right height that you're most comfortable in.

3. Shoes with straps

When it comes to heels, always choose the ones that offer the most comfort.

Ankle strap heels or those that have that more top coverage go a long way in making one feel comfortable.
