High heels: a short primer

Most of us feel sexier wearing high heels. It feels being on top of the world.

Towering stilettos have replaced the flats rage of last year.

Make way for chunky stilettos, platforms and armor like wedges. Even as the medicos frown with a disapproving eye toward foot contortions that high heels can cause, most style-conscious consumers still appreciate the lift.

Higher heels unquestionably flatter the legs by creating an illusion of long legs and emphasizing the shape.

High heel is the best accessory ever invented for women's legs. The erotic femininity that high heels represent often drives the men folk crazy.

In 2003, the American Podiatric Medical Association conducted a survey, in which they found that 72 percent of the women wore high heel shoes and a surprising 39 percent wore high heels daily.

Though I myself appreciate heels, but only sometimes keeping in mind the horrifying pain it gives in your back and feet.
