Searching for a great new pair of heels for this summer? Unsure of where to start? Not surprising, as there are many different types of heels to choose from. The different heel types for women's shoes are summarised below to make your choice a little easier.
The heels that tower above all others are the stilettos. These sky high beauties can reach up to eight inches and require a skilled owner as the heel itself is thin and provides little stability. Stilettos compliment knee length and shorter skirts and dresses. Stilettos top the list for sexy women's footwear.
SHOE CARNIVAL
Popular with business woman, standard pumps are a more appropriate and practical shoe. These heels are slightly wider than stilettos and shorter so provide more stability.
Platform heels are best suited for women who want the height that the stilettos can offer but need to have stability and are not patient enough to train themselves to be able to walk comfortably, let alone at all on a stiletto heel. Supported by a raised section under the ball of the foot, the super high heel is made to feel lower and the shoe feels more sturdy overall as the heel is generally a lot thicker and bulkier. The platform was most popular in the 70s but is till lining the shelves.
Kitten heels are the lowest heel on the market and are perfectly suited for all ages. Originally designed to help young girls get used to wearing heels, these low heel shoes can be worn with most clothing styles and come in a very wide variety of styles, colours and fabrics.
If you're not quite ready to tackle the mid to high heels, or if you're a high heel veteran and feel it's time to give your feet a rest then kitten heels are perfect, stylish yet comfortable and above all extremely practical.
The easiest of the heels to walk on is the wedge, and this particular shoe style is best suited for the summer months. The wedge heel comes in a variety of materials, ranging from cork to leather. The majority of the surface of the sole is on the ground which is why the wedge is comfortable and practical, despite the heights some wedges can get to. Wedges are best worn with flowing skirts and dresses as they have a tendency to look clunky when worn with tight fitting clothes.
For those more adventurous and looking for something that isn't in every shoe store on the high street, be daring and opt for the heel less shoe. The designer labels and the celebrities have been spotted on the red carpet and the catwalk sporting these gravity defying shoes. It may take some getting used to, but you'll be sure to get a comment or two.
