on 4/22/2007 Don't try to walk with too much attitude, especially if your heels are not very stable. I can't count how many times I've seen people trip when they're trying to walk in high heels, and the embarrassment is worsened when you act like you're stomping the runway.

on 12/10/2006 Remember to walk heel-toe with every step. Although placing your whole foot on the ground initially with each stride is easier for those not practised with walking in heels, it appears awkward and definitely not elegant.
