Are you crazy? Sarees and half sarees go very well with high heels. I can't imagine wearing a saree without my 3 1/2 inch heels.

Hello! high heels are worn for fashion, grace, gait, walk, etc. If they are worn by shorties to increase their ht, then you won't have any of the models (who are mostly 5'9"-5'11") wearing > 4 1/2 inch heels. You better shut your mouth if you don't know what you are talking abt.

We are not talking of models walking on the ramp but of women constituting the general public. This may help:


Why Wearing High Heels Can Be Risky
Many women choose to endure pain and discomfort in the name of style, while underestimating the health risks of wearing high-heeled shoes.
By Eve Glicksman, Staff Writer



Face it. Feet aren't meant to be propped in stilettos. Heels over 2 inches affect the natural way you walk. A heel higher than 3 inches puts seven times the pressure on the ball of your foot and can harm the bones.

Heels aren't just impractical when you're running to catch a bus. Shoes with high heels can lead to ankle sprains, knee and back problems, and injuries from falls. Add to that a host of other foot ailments - from blisters to heel pain to deformities.

Yet, according to a study by the American Podiatric Medical Association, nearly 2 in every 5 women wear high heels every day. And within this group, nearly 3 out of 4 reported having a shoe-related foot problem.

The price of glamour
It's true that stylish high heels can make you look taller. And some people think that they flatter your legs and give you a chic appearance. But they also are notorious for harming women's feet.

Blisters, corns, or calluses can develop when high heels throw weight into the ball of your foot.
Lower back pain can result when your spine bends backwards to compensate the forward push of your body when you walk in heels.
Pain in the ball of your foot, a condition called metatarsalgia, can stem from high heels.
Ankle sprains are more likely because your foot position in heels and the often-narrow heel width can make ankles unstable.
Achilles tendonitis is a risk. Frequent wearing of heels shortens and tightens calf muscles. This can lead to painful inflammation of the Achilles tendon at the back of your heel.
Benign tumors of nerves, called neuromas, can grow between toes. Symptoms may include sharp pain and tingling or numbness of the toes.
"Pump bump," or Hagland's deformity, has been linked to women who often wear high heels. This painful bump on the back of the heel bone occurs when the bone rubs against the shoe or a narrow, pointed shoe makes toes curl up.
Wearing heels all the time can even make wearing flats impossible if your foot becomes used to the position of heels. This can lead to more serious problems, like bone spurs or Achilles tendon tears.

Boots that are made for walking
Give up high heels?! If you can't imagine life without your favorite accessory, just make adjustments. Fashion and comfort don't have to be at odds.

Mix in flats and low pumps to your daily shoe wardrobe. Save your high heels for special occasions.
Wear flats for walking distances. You can bring your heels to change into once you get to where you're going.
Take smaller steps in high heels. Put your heel down first and try to glide to minimize damage to feet.
Try to buy short, chunky heels with plenty of room for your toes. Lower heels usually give you more stability, better shock absorption, and greater comfort.
Avoid wearing backless heels for any length of time because they strain your muscles. A strap or laces over the instep will also keep feet from sliding forward.
Stretch your calf, heel, and foot muscles to help them relax and increase range of movement. Treat them to a soak or massage at day's end.
Lastly, if you suffer foot or ankle pain, see a doctor. Foot problems are harder to treat once they become chronic.

Walking tall: British women now wear the HIGHEST heels in Europe...to compensate for being among the continent's shorte
st

'If you can't beat them, join them', goes the saying. And British women are certainly living by that mantra when it comes to their height.
We may be some of the shortest ladies in Europe, but we're compensating by wearing the highest heels on the continent, according to a new study.

Following in the footsteps (literally) of stiletto-mad celebrities such as Victoria Beckham and Cheryl Cole, British women are now tottering around on an average heel height of 3.3 inches.
That's almost one whole inch more than the petite women of France who, favouring a heel of 2.4 inches, wear only the fifth highest shoe in Europe.

Hot on the heels of the Brits, preferring an average height of 3.2 inches, are the women of Spain, while Danes wear 3 inches and the Germans 2.7 inches.
The study comes as British women are revealed to now be among the shortest in Europe, with the average 18- to 29-year-old measuring in at 5ft 4ins (163cm).
Our German counterparts are tower over us by five centimetres, at 5ft 6ins, while the Spanish are just one centimetre taller than us.

PP, i realize that growing up in possibly the most communally charged city of India must have been a distressing (and perhaps damaging) experience, but i would suggest that you fight your inner demons related to the Nizams, particularly the last Nizam. Learn to recognize that Islam is not a monolithic faith but a heterogenous one with different sects who have sharp differences between themselves. Shed your prejudices and biases with respect to castes and you will know that your theory that caste based reservations should continue indefinitely is nonsensical.

Even if your ancestors got roughed up by the razakars you should still have the magnanimity in your heart to evaluate the last Nizam like a detached, impartial judge in accordance with what the great Kashmiri historian Kalhana says when he talks of how historians should evaluate historical personalities.

A chinese friend described to me how in the old days the feet of chinese women would be tied up from a young age (and one of the feet bone broken in each feet) so that the young chinese woman would walk with her ass slightly protruding backwards and her head and chest protruding slightly forwards. This was done apparently because men found this attractive.

Are you really comfortable wearing 3.5 inch heels on a regular basis? I would hate to think that you are wearing 3.5 inch heels on a regular basis for the sake of coming across as attractive to men.

If he did, he did so in a secular and forward-looking manner. I wish to know whether the shoe manufacturing industry in Hyderabad developed as a result of Nizam's fondness for high heels.

oh..thanks so much for you concern. well designed, good brand heels are pretty comfortable, fyi. I nvr had any probs till now. I don't prefer anything > 3.5 either. 3.5 is my comfy heel ht.

PS: I don't want to get into an argument with you on how damaging heels are to the feet, yada yada...i made my point. Let me end the discussion here. thx.

A chinese friend described to me how in the old days the feet of chinese women would be tied up from a young age (and one of the feet bone broken in each feet) so that the young chinese woman would walk with her ass slightly protruding backwards and her head and chest protruding slightly forwards. This was done apparently because men found this attractive.

Are you really comfortable wearing 3.5 inch heels on a regular basis? I would hate to think that you are wearing 3.5 inch heels on a regular basis for the sake of coming across as attractive to men.

Looks like he did not and hence obviously Rashmun is not into heels.

That shoe was not worn by Nizam Osman; it belonged to one of his predecessors. Nizam Osman was well known for his preference for simplicity in attire.

rashmun, is this the dude with over 80 mistresses and has apparently sired a gazillion children? wdn't have had much time to dress elaborately, what with the demands of such an active lifestyle and all that.
