Oh well, it was worth a thought BB

They look just great. I've just bought a pair of 7" heels (thet're actually 7 1/2"!) from Banannaheels. I'm really pleased with them and they look great. Problem is, when I wear them I can't straighten my legs when I stand up!! I'm used to 5" so maybe I've made too big a jump! Any suggestions?

Yeah, 5 to 7.5 in heels is a HUGE jump, and I applaud you for trying. Perhaps you could obtain some 5.5 and 6- 6.5 in hels to help you go "up heel". Or just work witht he 7.5. But it's usually easier to go in steps. Think about how much of a challenge it would be to go form 2.5 to 5 in heels!

When you are at 5 inches, 6.5 inches is still a huge jump. I can walk in 5" easily, but 6.5 inchers I have great difficulty (knees bent). I think that if I go higher I'll buy 5.5 inchers. I think these will be doable.

I think you're right. I'm ordering a pair of 6" -6.5" hells and will try from there. Thanks for the advice.
