I couldn't agree more with this article. It makes me cringe when I hear a tall women tell me she can't wear high heels because she is tall. There is a time and a place for heels, It just doesn't look right when a woman wears a party dress and she is wearing flats.

One of the amazing things about my 6' tall Girlfriend she loves to wear heels, she even wore a pair of Red 5" platform shoes for her birthday party and she looked absolutely amazing.

This is so awesome!! And SO true!!!

I always tell people that if all the other girls in the place took their shoes off at the same time I did, I would still be THIS much taller than everyone else!!

I don't even need to read this (but I did) to agree with you. Tall or short, legs just plain look sexier in heels. Besides, 6'2" with 4" heels would bring you almost to eye level with me... and how is that a bad thing?

It's amazing what a pair of high heels do to a woman's legs.. Now a tall woman, who has long legs in the first place, with a sexy pair of heels on looks phenomenal!

From a male perspective, I always think that tall women in heels must be comfortable with their height, and I think it is very important (and attractive) that someone is happy with themselves as they are. That said, of course, you may be tall, perfectly happy with yourself and wearing flat shoes because you want to wear flat shoes!! Equally, you may be short and unhappy in heels. I guess the important point is to get to know someone before making this judgement!!! I would never presume to tell someone what shoes to wear, but then I'm tall and so automatically nicer!!!

I wear what I want to suit the situation and my mood. Many heels are very uncomfortable and can cause physical damage to you if you wear them too much, but I have no problem with the extra height and there are some that I can walk in all day. If you wear them you must be comfortable with yourself and walk proud otherwise you will look foolish.

I think wearing a comfortable shoe with some heel is excellent for business situations - it shows you have great confidence in yourself, even if you are the tallest in the room. It will show you are not retiring.

I salute the nonconformity and our differences in this world.

When shorter people say we shouldn't wear heels it is often because they feel inferior,
they feel a bit jealous or they simply want to shape the world to some sort of "standard"
that they recognize and feel "safe" with.

Every man and woman is unique and should continue to be so. (Coelho)

I just smile at them and ask "why" - and they always step into the trap! "But you're so tall"
- and? - in the end they use to get quite embarassed because in the end most of them use
to realize their mistake - That I am - in contrary to what they thought - not at all ashamed
over my height or to be different and hopefully , maybe , they learned a small lesson.

Keep on rocking tall sisters! wear heels when you feel like it
and smile to the world!
