A pair of high heels can be a
great addition to any woman’s wardrobe. They can spice up an
otherwise casual outfit, they can add a touch of femininity to
stiff business attire and they can be the perfect punctuation for a
spectacularly glamorous ensemble. But as any pump-sporting woman
can attest,… Read More »

The New York Times devoted an entire article today to women who loathe their feet. Yes, feet. Smelly, flaky, callused, un-pedicured feet. Some blogs will mock the Times’ hard-hitting piece of journalism about on the ways sandal season brings out our most shameful podia-neuroses.

Guess Who Has a Tattoo on Her Foot....?
Apparently, people who have tattoos describe them as potato chips - you know, once you have one, you crave more. Celebrities are no different. They're tattooed on popular body parts such as the lower back, groin, ankle, inner wrist, shoulder blade and evidently the feet. Tattoos, scare me a little bit, mostly because I'm so afraid of needles, however, most of you have voted (77%) for tattoos and think they look chic. Take my weekly beauty quiz and see if you can guess which celebrities are connected to these inked feet!

Stop — hammer toe! No, really. Stop hammer toe. This bent-toed foot condition isn't so sexy to talk about, but it's sandal season, so why not, eh? Snug shoes, high heels, and narrow kicks can force the toes to bend inward, which in turn shrinks the muscles of the foot. Over time, the toes can bend permanently. The best way to avoid this condition is to wear sensible shoes — more on this here — but if you favor fashion over orthopedics, exercises can help prevent hammer toe, too. (For instance, try to pick up a towel using your toes.) There are also a bunch of toe-focused foot exercisers out there, including Profoot Flex-Tastic ($9.99). The idea is to stretch your toes every day, much as you'd do yoga for the rest of your body, to realign toes. Read More »
