Why Heels Don’t Have to Mean Pain (or Compromise)

There’s this myth that tall women “shouldn’t” wear heels.

Too tall. Too much. Too attention-grabbing.

We’re here to say: Wear the heels.
But also—wear the heels that feel good.

Because if you’re going to stride into the boardroom, give a presentation, or lead a team meeting, your shoes should be the last thing holding you back.


👠 What to Look for in a Tall-Girl Friendly Work Heel

These features aren’t just “nice to have”—they’re non-negotiable:

💡 Extended Sizes (11–15 US) – So you don’t have to settle for whatever fits
👞 Wide-Width Options – Comfort without squishing or pinching
🧸 Cushioned Insoles – For long wear without foot fatigue
⬇️ Lower Heel Heights (1.5”–3”) – Still elevated, but walkable
🧍♀️ Balanced Arches & Support – Especially important if you're on your feet a lot

Bonus? You can wear heels without adding 4 inches. Kitten heels and block heels give you the look and the comfort.
