Everyone knows that heels are sexy, they make legs looks longer and more defined, but just how are we supposed to strut our stuff in those 4″ stilettos?

Learning to walk in heels is something that takes lots of practice, and it’s not something you can learn just by reading an article!

That said, here are some tips to get you started:

* Start small. If you’ve never walked in high heels before, don’t start out learning with 5 inch stilettos – that’s a recipe for pain and maybe even injury! Try something smaller, like a 2 inch heel or wedge to get used to the feeling. You can always work your way up to your most killer heels.

* Walk heel to toe, not toe to heel. While it might be tempting to put your whole foot down at once, don’t do it – it makes your walk look strange when you’re wearing high shoes. Instead, put your heel down first, followed by your toe. This will give you more balance and make your stride look more natural.

    walking in high heels is quite easy..it just takes practice and a bit of geeting used to if u never wore them..and yes putting the heel down first tho it feels awkward before the whole foot makes the walk easy and look more natural…even plus sized women can strut a catwalk in the higest of heels..trust me your heel is not going to break ,it just feels that way..They really enhance a woman’s apperance IMO esp shorter women. ANother tip, if u are just starting out…try wearing a SOLE pad with the lil fringes on them to help ur feet stay in place..it also gets rid of that “clusmy ” feel!!

    Most chics I see in heels walk like a T-REX! Like they have a hard time controlling a robotic shoe with hydrolics.

    Now I have seen beautiful women who can stride with heels though, it’s a beautiful site to see a woman work a nice pair of shoes!

    Jimmy Choo is a couture shoe designer. Born into a family tradition of shoemakers, his expertise led him to co-found Jimmy Choo Ltd., a British company that sells luxury shoes.

    Early Life and Career

    Early Life and Career
    Choo, of Chinese ancestry, was born in 1961 in Penang, Malaysia. His shoemaking talents manifested early; at 11, he had already made his first shoe, and he excelled at Cordwainers’ Technical College in London, England while working at restaurants and cleaners to help pay his tuition.

    After graduation in 1983, Choo rented an old hospital building near his alma mater, and eventually opened a workshop in 1986. From the next 10 years, he built his reputation with his craft, getting his creations featured in a 1988 issue of Vogue magazine and receiving patronage from Diana, Princess of Wales, by the beginning of the 1990s.

    “Founding” Jimmy Choo Ltd.
    In 1996, Tamara Mellon, then accessories editor at British Vogue, approached Choo with the idea to capitalize on the potential demand for luxury shoes. The consultation resulted in a partnership. With financial help from Mellon’s father, Vidal Sassoon co-founder Tommy Yeardye, they established a stand-alone boutique on Motcomb Street in London, with sourced factories in Italy to produce the shoes on a larger scale. Yeardye continued to fund the company as chairman of Jimmy Choo Ltd. UNTIL HIS DEATH IN 2004.

    Success
    By 2000, the Choo company had opened stores in New York and Los Angeles, its shoes becoming a premier choice among Hollywood’s stars. Also by this time, the company had acquired more than 100 wholesale clients that included Harrods, Harvey Nichols, Saks Fifth Avenue and Bergdorf Goodman. In 2007, a deal involving an 83 percent stake purchase by private equity house TowerBrook Capital valued Jimmy Choo Ltd. at £185 million ($304 million).

    Departure
    In April 2001, Choo sold his 50 percent stake in the company for £10 million during the company’s forging of a new partnership with Equinox Luxury Holdings Ltd. Robert Bensoussan, Equinox’s chief executive, became CEO of Jimmy Choo Ltd. According to a Tamara Mellon profile in the British daily newspaper The Guardian, Mellon facilitated Choo’s departure from the company.

    Today
    Choo currently runs the exclusive Jimmy Choo Couture line, which is produced under license from Jimmy Choo Ltd. He still lives in London.

    LAST NOTE: I learned early on (by older sisters) that to walk in heels, one put their body weight “slightly forward” while stepping. Works for me. I am comftable walking, dancing, etc. in heels, even my house-shoes have a little heel.

    @mscpa2u, agreed!!!

    No matter your dress or shoe size, the trick is to always shift your weight to the ball (front) of your foot.

    Lol @ Stan_Vinyl… I’ve seen some females who walked like horses… and some who let it be KNOWN that they couldn’t walk in heels or either let it be known that it hurt lol. But like, i just started wearing heels this year when I decided to get into plus size modeling… my only challenge WAS walking in heels.. but I got use to it fairly easy…. the one thing that I had to do.. was buy heels that fit just perfectly.. by this I mean, I wore heels that left little to no extra space for my feet… so that I can control the heels vs. the heels controlling me..
