How Long Will You Last In Those Heels?
Not all heel heights and shapes work for every occasion; we've literally got the scars to prove it. But after much trial and painful error, we've carefully calculated the perfect dress shoe for every duration.
Below, the key to elevating your outfit without amping up your pain level, too:
12 hours
If you're going from morning 'til night (or night until morning?), flats are by far your best choice. Pick a printed pair for a little more polish than plain black or nude.
6 Hours
If diamonds are a girl's best friend, platforms are her feet's. These leopard shoes add the inches without the uncomfortable arch, making them deceptively easy-to-wear for long stretches.
4 Hours
They may look industrious, but these booties have a high arch. While they're sturdy enough for a night out, they'll start to ache during a full day at the office.
2 Hours
Unless you spring for custom strappy sandals, you're likely to fight sliding out and battle a blister or two. Best to keep these to short events with no dancing needed—a lesson we've learned time and time again.
30 Minutes
These classic pumps might not look too crazy— but the kicker's in the 6 inch heel. Save them for fly-bys and sitting-only affairs, and your feet will thank you.
