Flat shoes for tall girls

q:I’m really tall. All my friends are shorter than me and get to wear heels to parties. What shoes could I wear that would still look hot, but not make me any taller? Please help.

a:

With your lovely long legs and comfortable stride I’m sure you’re the envy of all your high-heel wearing girlfriends! Heels are fun to wear but they come at a price. Luckily, you have a valid reason to avoid the blisters, bunions and occasional ankle roll that come packaged with the “sexy” high-heel! Embrace your height and hold your head high with these adorable options for taller girls: 

Flats


Sequin ballet flats.

They’re super cute and the sparkle takes them from day to night in a flash. And you can wear the embellished ballet flat with practically anything! Tights, dresses, skirts, jeans… they’re so versatile and comfortable they’re practically addictive! Mimi sequin flat from Farmers $39.99

 Gladiator sandals

A strappy sandal.

Long legs pull off this hard to wear style effortlessly. The Gladiator and Roman style sandals around this season have a high fashion element, but they’re still super comfortable! Gladiator sandal boot from No 1 Shoes $44.99


 

Strappy sandal


Kitten heel or small wedge.

Small heels don’t add a lot of height, but they do add a certain feminine feeling to an outfit. Shop around and find a style that you feel comfortable in. Kitten heels from Wildpair $129.90


If you still feel like you’re missing out on all the high-heeled fun then wear a pair of heels! It really doesn’t matter how tall you are, as long as you wear them with confidence you’ll look fabulous!
