Moving up in heel height
Im totally comfortable in my 6inchers but I found a pair of shoes I want but they are 7.5 inches!!!! To me I feel like id get a nose bleed from being up that high!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
Any tips for wearing the 7inchers and up????

I recently bought a pair of boots with heels just shy of 8 inches and really didn’t find them any harder to walk in after the first few minutes then my 6inchers so I’d say go for it https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Depending on how they are made the higher shoes can be easier to dance in. It really depends on the brand though. If they have a nice wide base for the ball of the foot your good to go, but some of them get narrow or have a funny curve to the bottom where the ball of the foot goes and they feel really unstable no matter what height they are. Lots of times the higher the shoe the smaller the angle is of the foot making it feel more stable. The reality is though, the higher the shoe the farther your fall and more likely you’ll twist your ankle, so take it slow. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_safesex.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_safesex.gif

I think the taller the shoe, the easier they are to walk/dance in. It’s weird! I have never found a pair of 6" heels that are comfortable. But ALL of my 8" shoes and boots are extremely comfortable!
I have never tripped off of 8" heels, either. I think they make the taller shoes more sturdy. Plus, I think the taller the heel, the taller they make the platform. So the 8" heels have a taller front platform ratio when compared to the shorter heeled shoes.
So it feels like you’re not walking in heels when you’re in the tall shoes (even though you’re teetering precariously on a thin stick almost a foot above the ground)
I think the brand VIVID makes the most comfortable tall shoes. I have a pair of 8" Vivid shoes and they are so comfortable, they’re better than the Converse I wear everyday! The sole is very cushiony and they even have a cushion for the toes to keep your toes from sliding out the front and looking funny.
