Platform 9¾

Let me be honest. It can all become an excruciating mess when forced to strut around in those 6 inch heels for hours on end. But heres the delima: while we would never dare to ditch those killer heels, our teeny tootsies need some well deserved TLC. This is where the solution shimmies in to save us all. Platforms. You may be wondering how on earth a higher heel can provide any help whatsoever, but this chunky new trend eases the strain on your feet with the sky high platforms offering extra comfort. I am simply smitten with this trend and rushed out immediately while in Wellington recently to purchase my new prized possession: a pair of black velvet chunky platforms. Able to be worn with anything and add a powerful punch, platforms must be the only way forward! Or up, depending on how you look at it.
