I don’t know about you but I feel so sexy in a pair of heels. I can’t explain it. It’s like having that Cinderella moment without all that stepmom and stepsister drama. A good pair of heels can make an outfit and have you stepping out looking and feeling a way. The outfit-heels combination possibilities are endless but I think it’s always good to go back to the basics and talk about the different types of heels. Welcome to Heels 101 !
