1. Audrey Hepburn advised buying a pair of
shoes half a size bigger, as comfort is integral to elegance.
2. As you get older, feet tend to get longer
and wider. It's useless trying to squeeze into your usual size 6 1/2. Probably
after the age of 40 you'll be a 7 1/2.
3. For the same reason, it's good to buy
shoes in the evening, when feet are at their biggest, and never in the morning.
4. Try not to wear the same shoes too many
days in a row. Ideally, you should change them every day to keep them from
losing shape too soon.
5. Whenever you get the chance - at home or
on the beach - walk around barefoot.
6. After an evening of walking on high heels,
massage the soles of your feet with a tennis ball.
7. Look at the feet of your mother and
grandmother. Many small deformations are hereditary but preventable.
8. Whatever kind of shoes you wear and
whatever the shape of your feet, accept and love them, pampering them with
great care and pedicures. Your feet are the pedestal that supports your soul.
