Platform Heels

            Do you remember when the Spice Girls movie came out, and all they wore were those enormous platform shoes? Well, I definitely do. The Spice Girls were so popular that everyone wanted a pair. However, ever since that time period, I haven’t seen or heard of platform shoes, well, at least not until now. A large percentage of the high-heels being sold this season and in the past season have had a platform heel on them.
            There are many positives that come with platform heels. Not only were they made popular by none other than the Spice Girls, but they also make a taller heel easier to walk on. The platform heel makes it seem as though you are not really wearing that tall of a heel. If you purchase a five and one half inch shoe with a two inch platform heel, then it is actually as though you are only wearing a three and a half inch heel. This causes less stress and damage to your feet (damages from heels are described in one of my earlier blogs).
            You will most likely see the platform heel on a pump or a wedge shoe. (I have posted some of the styles which I found on Google Images that I believe are extremely cute). Some people think platform and immediately think Spice Girls, but the two are not exactly the same. Everyone can pull these platform shoes off; they are highly fashionable and very “in” for this season and many seasons to come.
