Quiz Created on GoToQuiz


There are different kinds of shoes for different occasions and people. I love heels and among my favorites are the wedges and cone heels. 


What about you? What are your favorites among these?


Different Women Shoe Styles
Ankle Straps




An ankle strap shoe has one or multiple straps that, as the very name suggests, fasten around the ankle. Straps can include laces, ribbons and other material to wrap around the lower part of the leg.




Ballet Flats
Also known as ballerina flats, the ballet flats have been inspired from ballet shoes and have become useful for women of all shapes and sizes. A ballet flat is a flat heeled, enclosed shoe, almost like a slipper. It is easy to slip on and is available in different designs and shapes, with beads, jewels, fringes and flowers.

Kitten Heels

Kitten heels have a thin-based low heel that tapers sharply to a narrow base. The heel is usually 1.5 inches or less and is slightly set in from the back of the shoe. These shoes combine comfort with a little bit of extra height and go well with most outfits.

French Heels

French heels are shoes with a medium height, having a curved heel that is somewhat chunkier than a Kitten heel.

Mary Janes

A Mary Jane reminds you of your school days, as it is like the round-toed, low-heeled shoe that children wear to school. A distinctive feature of Mary Jane is the single or double strap that crosses the middle top of the foot. It comes in varying heights and styles.

Mules

A mule is covered in the front, just like a normal shoe and the back is open. It is easy to slip on and comes in various heights and different heel shapes.

Pumps

Pumps are low cut shoes that surround the foot without any fastenings. They are available in leather, micro fiber and other fabrics.

Peep Toes

A peep toes shoe is open at the tip of the toes, to show part of the toes, but not the whole toe line. The opening of the shoe is small and rounded or wedge shaped.

Platform Shoes

Platform shoes are thick soles that sit under the front part of the foot and are combined with wedges, chunky heels or stilettos. They are known as platform wedges, when they are combined with a wedge heel.

Sandals

Sandals are shoes with open toes and backs, with single or multiple straps for fastening. A number of sandal designs are available, depending on the type and material of straps and height of heels.

Sling-backs

Sling backs are a cross between a mule and a full shoe. They have a strap that connects the sides and back to the front of the shoe, instead of a closed back. They come in varying heights and can have open toes or a fully closed front.

Stiletto Heels

Stilettos or spiked heels refer to high heels that are pointy and thin. The slender and very feminine heels can be as high as 6 inches.

Wedge Heels

A wedge is based on the same shape as a triangular door-stop. The heel extends from the back of the shoe to right under the foot, thus running in a wedge shape from back to front. Wedges come in different heights.

Oh, there's alway a room
for another pair of shoes!!!

Of Heels, Men Wearing Heels And Other Heels Story!


I remember wearing heels as early as 11 years old. It's a black one, platform sandals, about 2.5 inches high… It kinda looks like this, but what I have has a thicker heel support. 



I also remember that no one taught me or told me to wear heels; mom is certainly not into this kind of things. Anyways, I just wore one to imitate Barbie and, of course, so that I wouldn’t step the bottom of my longer-than-my-height jeans.

I love wearing heels, even if it makes my feet tired and uncomfortable. Also, whenever I wear one, it makes me look very lady-like. Plus, the level of confidence it gives me is overwhelming… Imagine! I’m 3-inch-higher!


Some HIStory:


High heels originated in France around 1500s as male’s footwear. In the late 18th century, men’s heel shoes are designed lower with the exception of the cowboy boots.[Note: REAL cowboy boots are 2 inches high!]


Cuban Heels are also extremely popular to men for bands, rock groups and stars like The Beatles, John Travolta, etc. Only goes to show that heels are not just for us, ladies. Other artists that wear heels are Elton John, Bands such as Mötley Crüe and Sigue Sigue Sputnik and, now,  the lead singer of Tokio Hotel is wearing… wedges!

Why do Men love High Heels on Women?


There are many reasons to love heels, even if a man doesn’t have a shoe fetish. Even heels are difficult to be worn over a long period of time, women like wearing heels for it enhances attractiveness to the male specie.

Reasons:
Wearing heels highlights the feminine form.
Women’s hips sways involuntarily when wearing heels.
Women’s legs appear longer in Heels.
Heels makes a woman appear few inches taller.
Women in heels are vulnerable, being in heels makes the ladies unable to move or escape easily and quickly.

But do men really notice heels?

Researchers from  Northumbria University studied the reactions of men to women walking in heels and flats. Men were asked to observe women, between 18 and 35, walk without seeing their shoes. However, Men weren't able to distinguish between a woman walking in sensible flats and height-altering heels.

Well, it’s really up to you, Ladies. I wear heels for confidence, for additional height, for aesthetics. But, still, TRUE BEAUTY is inside. If wearing heels makes you feel beautiful and powerful, GO! Just don’t wear it for the sake of getting the attention of the opposite sex.

All About Me...


The truth is… I, myself is still knowing things about me. Everyday, I discover things that complete and destroy me. Like what makes me happy, what makes me cry, what I can do, what I can never do, what I choose not to do, and so on. 

So this “about me” would be like a season, ever changing from time to time… I would like boy bands now but will forever feel for Beatles.
I love myself. Who wouldn’t be?

My parents gave me a beautiful name (if you know then lucky you do) but I would prefer if you call me Mia. We are not in grade school anymore, so damn please call me in the name that would beat sweet to my heart. 

I’m 22 years old. I’m a writer, but always dreamed of being a doctor (I always ask myself, “how come I am not one?”). 

It would be fair if you won’t call me Ate, Miss, Ma’am, Madam or anything older than my name for I believe some souls are way older than the others. Your soul would age older than mine, wisdom don’t always comes with age… you might be a 3-yrs-old genius. 

I don’t know the things you might hate about me. When you are mad, tell me. I’m quite insensitive but I am TOO sensitive as well. If I talk too much, stop me. When you’re not sure about what I say, ask me and I’ll whole-heartedly repeat it. When I cry, don’t wipe my tears away, cry with me as the way you would laugh when I laugh, as the way you would fall down when I fall. When I sprain my ankle, bring me to the hospital, but allow me to drive the car. Don’t make me feel like a handicapped/disabled, I have a lot of use. I have a lot of worth. Use me, I’m worth it.

Tell me your dreams and we’ll dream together. We’ll do things together, we’ll do better. Be the spoon, I’ll be the fork. Be the bee, I’ll be the hive. Be the saint, I’ll be the sinner. But if somehow you’ll never be a saint, then I’ll sin with you. 

I’m human. I don’t read minds. I break rules. I start wars, fires that damage eternity. Bear with me… especially, in time when I don’t understand myself. I wouldn’t look in your eyes when I’m sorry, I wouldn’t show I’m sincere… but it’s locked down my heart begging for forgiveness. 

I seem to kill you but discover that something in me dies gently as well. I try to be the boss but deep down I’m slaved. When I try to control you, it doesn’t mean I’m superior… I’m controlled as well. I try to be old, but, of course, I still am a child.

If you love me, tell me. Nothing beats it. I’ll stay when you go. If you go and you wanted me to wait for you, tell me. I’m sure it’s worth the wait, once your back. If I’ll go, don’t follow and search for me. Find love and be in love. If I realize that it’s wrong leaving you, I’ll find my way back. I’ll do everything under my power to have you back. If its never-not worth IT, never risk another chance, move on… let go… give up. 

This is how I live my life. I’m not perfect. I bring accidents, bad lucks, and fire. But I hope, at some point these imperfections are perfect for you. Owell, then, after all the tragedies of life… we still MATCH. You are the one for me, as God had destined me to be with you.
