Summer is finally here, so it's time to put away those heavy winter boots and bring out your dainty sandals. Summer shoes like espadrilles and flip-flops are not only a great way to show off your beautifully painted toenails or your anklet, but they are also a very hygienic shoe as they allow your feet to breathe which eliminates bad foot odour.
If you're heading off to a fancy party, the last thing you want is for your feet to be hurting all night in a pair of uncomfortable stilettos. Your dress may look amazing and your Rush Hair or Toni and Guy inspired hair-do might look flawless, but if you're uncomfortable, you simply won't enjoy yourself. This is why we have put together a couple of useful sandal tips to help you find that perfect pair of comfortable and trendy shoes.
Tip 1 - Swap stilettos for wedge shoes. Every girl knows that wearing high heels for too long can be very painful. We love wearing stilettos because they make our legs look long and slim, but after a few hours they really begin to hurt. This is why we recommend swapping high heels for wedges. Wedge shoes are far more comfortable because the weight distribution is more even. While stilettos put a lot of pressure on the ball of your foot, wedge shoes evenly spread your weight across your foot which makes them very comfy. You'll be able to dance all night and not wake up with sore feet the next morning.
Tip 2 - If your feet tend to swell up when they are hot, then gladiator style sandals are perfect for you. They are very open - which allows your feet to breathe - and they are rather loose fitted which allows your feet to expand.
Opt for something like these leopard wedges, by Nicole, over stilettos. Your feet will applaud you!
