Question
I’m 5 ft. tall and my husband is approximately 6 ft. in height. Although, it is not possible for me to match up to his stature but I would like to enhance my height by a few inches. Can you please suggest the right kind of footwear, which I should wear on my wedding day? I am looking for options that would make me look tall and yet feel comfortable on my feet.
Answer
Usually, heels do not offer the convenience of comfort. But it depends largely on the type and size of the heel. Finding comfort in heels also depends on how well you can carry them off or how easy you feel in them.
If you do feel comfortable in heels, then go for stilettos. These not only make a woman look tall and slim, but can also give your dress a stunning look. However, since it is your wedding day, we would recommend that you go for heels not measuring more than 2 inches. Especially if you don’t like wearing heel in general, then avoid stilettos under all conditions. They can give you severe backache and make it difficult to stand erect for more than a few minutes.
Kitten heels are a good and very comfortable option. They are cute and stylish and can easily allow one to stand for a few hours. However, it is important that you sit for a few minutes in between to allow your body to rest. They also have a nice lady like charm about them.
