What Your High Heels Say About You!

If you're physically able to wear high heels (if not, you can always try and make them more comfortable with Dr. Scholl's for Her High Heel Insoles), your choice to increase your height by at least an inch or two already speaks highly of your shoe sensibilities. However, the type of high (or low) heel you choose to complement your calves with says even more! Whether you're into sexy stilletos or wear wedges to work, see what we think your high heels say about you! Agree or disagree with what we think your shins are singing or your dogs are barking? Sound off in the comments!


Shoe Style: Stilettos
What They Say: Sexy & Fearless
Stiletto-lovers are nothing if not sexy and fearless, if only because they dare to balance their entire body weight upon tiny little 1/2 inch-wide heels up to eight inches high! While stilettos once were reserved for dressy occasions, today many women wear stilettos with jeans, and even shorts, for the calf-tightening, booty-lifting effect they have on one's body!
Slip Into: For a flirty night out on the town, step into these Guess by Marciano Ariana Stiletto Pumps. To add a little extra to an everyday look, check out these Dereon Magzy Stilettos in Brown.

Shoe Style: Wedges
What They Say: Smart & Stylish
Women who wear wedge heels have the best of both worlds: since the entire sole touches the ground, but is elevated from toe to heel at varying heights, wedge heels are worn frequently by individuals who consider themselves both sexy and interested in comfort. Wedges keep women looking smart and stylish without the worry of breaking an ankle on every uneven floor surface!
Slip Into: For casual fun, these Gwyneth Johanna Wedge Shoes are tip top, but for professional wear, wiggle your tootsies into these Tory Burch Julianne Wedges.



Shoe Style: Pumps
What They Say: Traditional & Professional
Pumps are the original high heel. Never out of style but always slightly shifting in heel width and shape, pumps are often put on by professional women and those who trust in and respect traditional looks. Pumps aren't flashy like stilettos, but they serve the same purpose to 'complete' a traditionally feminine look.
Slip Into: For a twist on traditional, try these nude patent pumps that are all the rage right now. Or, silp into something more serviceable like these brown round toe pumps which will fit right in at your workplace.



Shoe Style: Raised Espadrilles
What They Say: Free-Spirited & Fun
While the original espadrilles are flat and not very fashion-forward, the term 'espadrilles' simply referres to the Pyreneese name for the material used for the sole - either rope made from jute or rubber. The casual nature of espadrilles does not suggest professional or hardened; when one slips on a pair of espadrilles, those coming into contact with the wearer may automatically assume that this is a youthful-spirited woman who is having a fun and carefree day! This essence makes espadrilles the perfect spring and summer footwear, when we all get a chance to let our hair down for at least a day or two! Getting ready to wear a pair? First fix up your feet with Flexitol Heel Balm!
Slip Into: While canvas espadrilles like these flower espadrilles are adorable, dressier versions like these Steven Waren T Strap Platform Espadrilles are also awesome.




Shoe Style: Kitten Heels
What They Say: Conservative & Practical
When women want the 'look' of high heels but without the stabiilty-sacrificing height, the kitten heel is the only way to go. Many of your officemates, and perhaps you, can be seen kicking around in kitten heels, which have heels that are thin and curved but short (under two inches). Because kitten heels aren't ostentatious, they're perfect for conservative ladies, and practical women also enjoy the fact that they can wear kitten heels for hours at a time without pain or wobbling.
Slip Into: Purr-fect your work look with these Miss Sixty Olivia Kitten Heels, and switch to these Anne Klein Women's Peach Kitten-Heel Pumps at night to warrant quite a few cat calls!




Shoe Style: Pointy Toe Pumps
What They Say: A Force to be Reckoned with & In Control
Nothing says 'don't mess with me' like a hot pair of pointy-toed high heels! There's a certain 'je ne sais quoi' that comes with pointy toe pumps, but one thing's for sure - if you're filling your closet with 'em then you are much more likely to be in control and self-possessed than those of us who steer clear from points atop our high heels. While pointy toe pumps come in and out of fashion, some strong women could care less about what others are wearing and rock them all the time!
Slip Into: This Nine West Basic Black Pointy Pump can be used with many different outfits, or you can show some serious personality and some (snake) skin with these Snake Embossed Pointy Toe Pumps!




Shoe Style: High Heeled Boots
What They Say: Confident & Fashionable
Show me a woman in high heeled boots and I'll show you a confident catch who is careful to stay in style no matter the season! In cold weather, high heeled boots are a great way to look cute without catching cold, too. From tucking your pants into your boots to letting just the tops show underneath a maxi skirt, high heeled boots look stylish in a variety of ways. Boots tend to rub, though, (especially if you have wide feet) so prep your pretty toes with Foot Petals Heavenly Heels to avoid calluses and blisters!
Slip Into: Show off your high heeled boots with these Wide Calf Knee-High Heeled Boots with Back Ruching, or on casual days let the tip of your high heeled boots peek out from behind your pants with these Steve Madden leather strappy boots with a chunky high heel.




Shoe Style: Platform Heels
What They Say: Sensual & Youthful
Frequently considered reserved for, ahem, 'women of the night' and 'strippers' today many women leading legal and respectful lives can be seen bopping around in big ol' platform high heels! Platform heels have been in and out of style since the 1600s, though most of us remember their popularity during the 1970s. However, though platform high heels offer the same type of sexy look as a stiletto, they actually say in an even stronger way that the wearer is probably a sensual, sexual firecracker, and the wearer may or may not actually be young, but they certainly will seem young at heart!
Slip Into: If you feel like you want to look like a million dollars, slip into these solid gold Tabatha platform shoes. For a more subtle, elegant look, check out these Pour la Victorie black leather platform high heels!
