To me, comfort in my feet is the most important, even on special/fancy occasions. Nothing ruins a good time like feeling your feet sore or tired. You stop caring about the concert, the dinner or the conversation... all you can think is "I can't wait to kick these shoes off!"
I have a shoe-sizing tip. I think it is good to try on shoes with normal socks, not just the disposable nylon ones. (I'm referring to shoes that go with socks, not sandals.) One time, I bought a pair of boots that I had tried on with the nylon socks, but when I wore them with regular socks, they were too small. Hope this helps someone.
That makes total sense to me!
Same with winter coats and jacket try them on with a sweater or imagine lol
If your boots were leather and not synthetic lined or made, you can have them stretched out to accommodate a midweight sock. You can have it done at a cobbler's but what I have done in the past, is wet the leather thoroughly and tightly pack the shoe or boot with newspaper. It's much better than not being able to wear the boot at all. 🌱
Good advice! I’m only 5’1” and was always encouraged to wear taller heels to make me taller. I’m glad I didn’t listen and chose shoes that were comfortable with low heels. It saved me from foot and back problems as I’ve aged.
I've always found ladies below 5'5 adorable. I say this as someone who's 5'5 haha
I always thought the bigger the foot, the higher the heel no matter the height of the person. I was a gymnast, so my growth was stunted. I’m 5’5” and a size 9! Everyone else in my family (including my 12 year old niece!) is tall except me. I always wore 3.75 to 4.5 inches. When I was super young I could go with the 5in (no platform, I dislike platform shows so much), but that’s about as high as I could go.
I’ve been ranting about size 5.5 feet, heels, and the realities of the Pythagorean theorem for years. Thank you for putting it in slightly less nerdy, much gentler ways. 😂
Audrey’s voice is like a glass of champagne. 🥂
I only wear flats due to preference but I clicked for fun. 🙂
Omg, I feel her voice too but I don't know how to describe it with words... thank you
This is exactly the best description
Yes. -Allerdings verstehe ich nicht alles und hätte das gern in deutsch.
Soothing and endlessly listenable :)
A very sensible video! I worked in several different shoe shops when I was a teen, so I really got to see what happened to people’s feet when they wore different shoes. Except for the occasional special night out, don’t wear high heels! Donate or sell any shoes that don’t fit you properly. Your feet are so important!
For people with small but also very narrow feet and heels, my best tip is to always look for something closed at the ankle, like a bootie or a pair of strappy sandals. When I try to wear pumps, mules or ballet flats, the uncomfortable position I have to bend my feet in just to try to keep them from slipping off will cause unbearable foot pain. Ankle straps are often advised against for petites because they cut us visually, but they also help keep shoes on, so that's a win to me! I also recommend looking into those ball-of-foot sticky clear insoles, which can help keep pumps or other heels in place and provide some cushioning and support.
The best informative heard in a long time about buying shoes!
Yes indeed!!
Thank you very much!!! Super super informative in a very clear way!
I feel like this is going to change my life. Love these tips, especially the tip on trying shoes on at the end of the day. I knew was blessed with size 7.5 for a reason lol. Love how you explained everything.
Hmm
Good afternoon, Audrey!
My name is Daria. I come from Russia.
Since last two months I`ve been watching your videos with great pleasure! They are deffenately gorgeous, practical and useful!
I am studying at the faculty of foreign languages and your videos make an unbeliveble impression on me and help me to learn languages.
Thank you ever so much for your positive attude to life, hard work and much involving in fashion!
Best wishes!
Daria: Audrey is the best person on CZcams to learn how to speak superior English. Her voice, diction and pronunciation are so nice!
I just tried that and got to 1.2 inches. That’s bang on regarding my real life shoe heel experience and shows that people with similar small foot lengths often wear heels that are far too high! I feel totally vindicated to have always stuck to what felt best to me! Thank you so much for this great video!!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻. I am
Sure a lot of podiatrists will be very happy with it, too!!!!😊😊😊😊😊
I have followed several fashion / beauty CZcamsrs since middle school, but none of them are near your level of expertise. I am baffled how you gives these tips for free. Thanks for all your help!
As someone with a small foot and high arches, I appreciate knowing that your “fashionable but comfortable” shoe recommendations might actually work for me! Plantar fasciitis is a daily struggle so I don’t say that lightly. (I have great house slippers that help with that but don’t want my real shoes to wipe out that relief.) This was a great video for anyone, though!
I’d love to know where your house slippers are from/ what brand they are! I’ve been on the hunt for some really comfortable ones for a while!
@@fionalazar5833 they are specifically for plantar fasciitis & have made the difference between being able to walk and not! The brand name is The Healing Sole. I recommend waiting until they offer a sale since they are pricey for house shoes and they do deals frequently. Worth every penny if you can’t wait, though.
@@fionalazar5833 I have the same issue and have found a shop online called Vionic. They have a great selection of footwear from slippers to sandals and boots. They are also stylish and not frumpy like most that seem to be for these issues!
I had plantar fasciitis. I soaked regularly in Epsom Salts, stretched that area in all angles, bought cushy mats for standing in the kitchen. Rubbed arnica, then Tiger Balm in area. Also I bought "Dr Relief" insoles. They work better than any other insoles, and are very cheap online. Hope this helps.
Birkenstocks cured my plantar fasciitis.
Could you do some type of closet inventory? I would love to hear more about you individual pieces and why you chose them
Oh, yes pls!!!
You are AMAZING - and never stop surprising!!💗I adore the way everything you present is based in actual fact and/or science. You're providing knowledge that every individual can implement - not just pushing your own preferences. 🥰
Audrey, this video is spot on. I have never heard of these tips before. Going to put them to use!!
Thank you Audrey. Knowledge is power.
Also, wearing nylons (v. wearing shoes with just bare feet) can make all the difference! I know they aren't "in style". In my experience, heels (or any dress shoe) is much, much more comfortable when wearing nylons.
It’s the opposite for me 😞. Every time I wear nylons with heels my feet become very slippery and I can’t walk properly without the needed traction 😩
@@marcelaoviedo3994 Greetings. I agree with you. I generally hate wearing nylons with many of my shoes because of slippage issues and I feel like my heels are lifting out of the shoes! I do like wearing tights though in the fall/winter.
@@marcelaoviedo3994 same i never do
@@001islandprincess Agreed. Whenever my feet are a little slippy in my shoes, I feel like I end up gripping with my toes and keeping a lot of tension in my foot to try to feel like the shoes are secure on my feet, and all that tensions creates pain.
I just wear sock liners.
Priceless tip & formula!! Cannot thank you enough dear Audrey. 💐🤗
I know very well why I watch your videos regularly. Double- thumb-up for this video! Thank you!
omg your voice is so calming! You should some guided meditation videos! ❤️😍😍😍😍
Amazing video! I just bought a couple pairs of shoes from a small local shop, they make handmade real leather orthopedic shoes so walking in them is really easy. The design is a little on the classic and round toe side ( I wish they were pointy but I assume that would have made them uncomfortable) and the leather is really good! I just went and measured my feet and shoes according to your instructions and they matched! I have a large feet, about size 41 ( 10.5 US) so there are not many good options that are both comfortable and nice. It's the first time that I have transitioned my style to ALL sneakers to more feminine shoes and I am really excited to explore more!
Great content Audrey! Thank you :)
Thank you, Audrey! I'm shopping around for my wedding shoes and I definitely want them to be both beautiful and comfortable. This was super helpful.
This is so helpful!! Thank you!
This is an excellent video. It's incredibly valuable information on an issue that everyone has. Thank you for thinking of this one!
Miss Audrey I want to speak as sweet as you please do more tutorials on speaking 🙏 by the way great info👍👍
That is great information. I'm 5'3" and wear a size 6 shoe, so also on the smaller side. I also have a narrow heel and find it hard to find shoes comfortable in the heel. I tend to wear slides, mules, and slingbacks to help with this.
Thank you Audrey💐
As always very helpful. Have a nice Sunday
So helpful, as always!
Hello! You always provide great information, on point and helpful. 👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I did a huge shoe clean out last year during lockdown and now it’s great that the shoes I own are comfortable and I wear them. ❤️😊
The most useful tips in recent times. Thank you
I also have high arches and small feet. I will definitely give this a try! Thank you Audrey!
Amazing. Can't wait to try it. Thank you.
This is much needed information. Thank you.
Thank you Audrey. I have been buying and searching for good/great quality stylish shoes for decades. It IS a tricky, time consuming endeavor. But I love shoes! This was very helpful. I will be using these tips.
Excellent information!
Audrey, this is very welcome!
Glad you are back! You are si accurate! 😊
What a great formula for finding your comfortable heel height. Thank you Audrey.
Thanks so much Audrey. It is very helpful. I always find difficulties in finding the right shoe for myself. I don't wear heals but finding the right fit is a great way to find my comfortable size
Great information I’ve never heard about before. Thank you!!
Very helpful, thank you. 👍
Thank you Audrey, very informative and helpful. Remain blessed xxx

Excellent advice. Thanks!
Great tips! Thank you so much! 👍❤️
Very helpful tips.
Very informative, thanks Audrey 🥰🥰🥰
So helpful!! Wow
That is really interesting... You have really helped me! Thank you Audrey. ...Great advice to buy shoes at the end of the day.😊
This is very helpful thank you so much Audrey!
Thanks for the practical tips
What a great tip!
Thank you! There is a dearth of truly useful fashion information on CZcams. This is helpful and something any woman can use to improve her life AND style. Sore feet are the bain of a shoe-lover's world...we suffer for our pretty shoes... I can't wait to test this method to see if it works. One request, please: It would be most appreciated if you would cite your sources for some of the information you are presenting: i.e. the American Shoe Mfr's Assn. or American Podiatry Assn., a shoe enthusiast, etc.
Thank you! That is so helpful.
Thank you for this information. I'm just starting to aquire my shoe collection.
I’m a new subscriber and absolutely ADORE your channel! Many thanks 👏🏻💕🥰
i broke this rule of thumb for my black heeled leather boots😂. you're so true about experimenting, i look forward to have more printed pumps in my 30s, inspired by your recent shoe collection :D. and the block heel is so true! also applies for espadrilles/wedges 🌻🌞
Thank you, Audrey, for such an easy and informative video! :) I twisted my ankle back in November of last year which has left me (for now) with a drop foot. I end up walking toe to heel instead of heel to toe. I have found that filling in the gap of wear my heel won't touch down with a shoe/boot/etc that has a bit of a heel makes all the difference in the ease of walking for me! My chiropractor and physio were both astonished, but agreed that they could see a difference with how I am now able to better get around! :) Shannon.
What a great idea video!
Thant you so much for your tips !!!
Love your hair!! You look amazing!
Nice confirmation of what I was doing without really knowing.
Thank you!!
Those low-heeled black shoes at 4min are SO cute! Love the little bows.
I have bunions so I cannot tolerate high heels at all. I find keeping my heel height to 1/2", or 1-2" is acceptable and the block heel is really my favorite for boots, shoes or sandals. I don't like flats as they hurt my feet just as much as a higher heel.
Really helpful video - never heard this before! I'm a size 11 US shoes. My preferred heel height, based on decades of experience, is 2" (before doing the measurements). Totally agree on block heels too.
Gosh You’re such a wealth of knowledge!!! Also, you look stunning (per usual)
Thanks so much Audrey for this helpful info! The tip about buying shoes at the end of the day is so important! For me, since I have problem toenails, I always have to look for shoes that don't press down on my nails. So, I have to make sure that the toebox is high enough to allow for breathing and moving room. : )
Thank you!!!💝
Can’t wait to give this a try. I find now that I have had multiple ankle and knee surgeries on my right side, my normal heels are soooooo uncomfortable 😣
Thanks again for a great tip
My appreciation💕
Thank you for this information...I want to remain stylish in my 50's and not give up on my shoes hight! I will do these measurements!
A great video today.
Thank you Audrey Yours is one of my go tos on ladies’ fashion Will you do a Fall 2021 trends video?
Thank you very helful!😊🤗
In simple words, I love you in every video
Great info as always. Love your voice. Please let us know did you find your ring. Others want to know too.
Very helpful, thank you. Where did you buy the black shoes that appear at the beginning of the video? So beautiful!
Thank you so much for the helpful tips. From Ukraine ❤️.
I love your channel.
Please do again classic colour combo video.. i loved those video very much. Those video helped me very well .
Wow!!! My only sadness was I wish I had this info 30 years ago!! Thankfully because of you I don't have to go on one more minute longer 🥰 Thanks Audrey
Very helpful! Thank you! Would you say that this formula applies to very flat, wide feet as well?
Hi Audrey! I don't know if you'll reply but I was wondering which microphone you use when filming? Love the audio clarity in your videos 😍
Thanks, I will fallow you advice.
So beautiful around you house.🌷
Informative
I love your all video❤️
I love your channel
That was news to me. Thank you for this informative video. I’m off to measuring my feet now. Hopefully, they are the same length.
The more you know. Love love love ❤️😍
Love these points. I recently made a video on getting back to wearing heels after lockdown. It's a serious concern for a lot of people. Thank you for sharing your knowledge Audrey.
First of all thanks for this awesome video! I have high arched feet too and I can't believe that someone explained what I feel when I try heels. I avoided it my entire life and yes it has to be a large heel! Also I like to walk so this can't be easy in heels at all. The normal for me is 1.5cm and if heels so 3cm. I wish to be higher to 5 but strangely even my size is 39 I got 3.5cm. I will try the other thing you explained and see how much it will be. 💙 Thanks from the bottom of my heart 💕!
P.s I didn't know that you are a minimalist too and I felt so comfortable of the content! No wonder, as I adabted that comfortable life style 3 years ago or more.
May God bless you ^^
I think the shape and placement of the heel is as important as it's height. I've had some shoes I simply could not wear past a few hours just based on that alone. Whereas I've had others that were taller I wore with no problem.
If your shoes are uncomfortable you're not going to be able to move properly, which really distracts from your overall appearance... never mind the comfort factor!
Thanks! Great advice 👏 I had intuitively chosen the right height but I’m going to try block heels inspired by this video 😊 my arches are also high and my feet look like a carbon copy of yours, so maybe those heels work for me too. Btw I love the dark navy ? shoes you have on the video, where they’re from?
WOW..I learned so much today...off to measure my feet...LOL...this is soooo helpful honey...Big Hugs....You are the BEST....
