There seems to be no end toward the debate whether women should choose a pair of heels or flats. Many pros and cons are thrown by the heels and flats lovers alike. Which pair is actually more appropriate for women to be used on daily basis?

You can probably say that I’ve been taking sides from the very beginning since I’m a heels lover. But let me convince myself (and convince you as well in the process) as to why I should invest in flats and maybe open a chance to ditch my heels?

First and foremost flats are comfortable because they follow the natural contour of your step. Flats feel like a second skin especially if you buy a pair that have a good fit and made from good quality material. You don’t need to worry that you might get hurt if you’re forced in a situation where you have to run around everywhere, I’m sure when you’re wearing heels you will be always worried that you might trip. Most importantly, it allows your legs and feet to support your body more steadily than wearing heels.


Flats usually also come in wide array of colours and very cute design.I’ve just given a peep into Linea’s next season array of pretty ballerina flats and let me tell you I couldn’t stop drooling. I’ve been taken aback how effortlessly chic celebrities looks like on their formal get up paired up with flats and it still looks proper.

With all of the above, why do I need to stick with heels?

I couldn’t lie that I do enjoy 7 – 10 cm addition to my height. There are also a lot of women that said they choose heels because it looks sexy and somehow make their legs looks longer. Well, I don’t know what’s the truth in this but I do feel more confident on my stiletto heels. There’s this magical feeling that somehow, in every step with that heels I can conquer everything ahead of me. Sounds so very superficial but I’m sure a lot of us feel like that, don’t we?

The conclusion? It all comes back to the occasion. If we feel that we need to be on our feet all day, flats would probably suit our need the best. However, if you are finding shoes for more dressier occasion or formal events and meeting, I would still prefer heels. But like I said above, since many celebrities used flats nowadays to be used with their formal attire, more and more people use flats not only for their casual outfit. I would love to know what do you all ladies here think about wearing heels other than for casual occasion? Is it heels or flats that dominates your wardrobe?

    I’d rather wear wedges than flats. As a petite girl, heels really help me to look taller :) I know it hurts, but beauty is pain. *sigh*

    Please read my article about high heels ;)

    I’m a flat lover. But yes, there are times when my vanity conquers and I would wear high heels ;)

    yes they hopefully will LOL!! in my book they’ve done so for years.. the hunt is currently on for formal flats =) or at least tiny 1inch heels yg bukan kitten. iv made my peace ages ago with the fact that im no tall willow not even with the help of 4inch heels, so why bother eyy..

    that being said, i still love my satin 4inchers but they only venture out once every few months.

    I can’t live without flats. I practically live in them. Sure, I love heels, especially those 4-5 inch and up ones. But hey, nothing beats the comfort of good, well-made flats :)
    That being said, I saw those ras flats the other day, and thinking of getting them ;)

  6. Affi says:

    I definitely need to get more “formal” flats because some days I just can’t stand being on heels all day long. Plus having to change shoes in the car is super rempong!

    Having said that though, I don’t think I’ll ever lose my heels completely. Like you said, there’s nothing like the feeling of strutting in a pair of killer high heels, feeling feminine yet powerful at the same time, even when you only wear simple clothes :)
