We can’t blame you! We love the way heels elongate our legs, make our calves appear sexy, and make us feel like a runway superstar apart from adding a few inches to our height.

Luckily, there are easy peasy solutions that you can purchase at your local discount store or with a click of a button. You won’t have to worry about uncomfortable quinceanera heels after following our tips!
Heels that Fit

You’ll be dreading every step you take if you don’t purchase comfortable heels that fit in the first place. The most comfortable heels have a platform rather than flat toed shoes. You know it’s the the right size when your arch matches the arch on the shoe and the front is wide enough for your toes. Walk across the shoe store before buying them to ensure that your feet don’t slip out with every step. With that being said, buying them at a shoe store is way better than buying them online.

Save up for a Good Pair
Yes, we know you want to save as much money as possible and have the quince of your dreams.

Leather lining are softer and your feet are less likely to rub against this material, but are more expensive. However, they may be worth the investment.
