For the tall girls out there....

Do you wear mostly flats or heels, or a mixture of both? I have alot of shoes that have heels, but I feel like such a giant compared to everyone else. I'm only about 5'6 0r 5'7. Do any of you feel the same? I just like the look of heels. I just bought a nice pair of sandals with a 3 in. heel and deciding if I should return them or not. WHat do you think?

Re: For the tall girls out there....

Being 6 ft tall, I go out of my way to find the smallest heel I can which is very hard to do. I try not to wear completely flat shoes - they tend to not be comfortable for me

I'm 5'8" and I wear heels almost everyday. I just don't like the way flats look on me. I think my posture is so much better with heels. Not crazy high heels - 3" max, because I do teach so I am on my feet all day.

This topic with me comes up from time to time...I'm 5'10"(have really long legs) and I wear both although I don't always like the added height. It just depends...I'm most comfortable in no heel but I do like a sexy heel here and thereChat Icon
I do like alot of the steve madden styles out now but a 4" plus heel just makes me too damn tall!!

You each with 3" heelsChat Icon God bless you girlfriend! I can't unless they are really clunky... it's too much on my feet.

I wear a mixture but most days flats or a chunky 2-3 inch heel. It's getting harder and harder to stand all day in them. I'm 5'8"

Re: For the tall girls out there....

I'm 5'6" as well, but I have a really long torso and really short legs, so I tend to wear huge heels all the time.

Between 2 - 3 inches to work every day. It's rare for me to wear flats and when I do it's usually because I'm not feeling great.

Re: For the tall girls out there....

I'm 5'9" and wear both. I don't wear heels over 2" because my feet hurt too much not becuase of my height. I think tall women look beautiful in heels and should show off their height and their long legs, not hide it.

Re: For the tall girls out there....

I'm 5'10" and I love to wear heels. When I was in highschool I was really self concicous about my height and would only wear flats, but now I dont care anymore. The higher the heel, the better!

I'm about 5'9" and I wear flats most of the time. I like heels, but I don't like the pain they cause my feet so I don't wear them often.

Re: For the tall girls out there....

I almost never wear heels b/c i don't feel comfortable walking, has nothing to do with my height.

I wear both heels and flats (I'm 5'9). I like being tall and love the extra height heels give me.

Re: For the tall girls out there....

I am the same height as you. It bothers me a little bit, but if I see a shoe I really, really like with a heel..I would totally buy them!!!

ETA: I have a mix of all different sized heels/ flat shoes..
