On sharing my passion for shoes and tips to customize the old ones to new exotic variants...
Stiletto
A stiletto heel is a long, thin, high heel found on some boots and
Kitten Heels
Pumps
Pumps are one of the most popular styles of women's
shoes, and they're also one of the most difficult to define.
In their most basic form, pumps have closed backs,
and low-cut fronts that hit closer to the toes than
they do the top of the foot. A classic pump has a
seamless vamp, and is without laces, buckles, straps
or ties, but it's very common to see the classic pump
silhouette enhanced by an ankle strap, t-strap, or
mary jane strap. Pumps can have open toes, peep toes,
pointy toes, round toes, almond toes or square toes,
and they can have heels of any height.
Wedges
Wedges or wedgies are shoes with sole in the form of a wedge so that one piece of material, normally rubber, serves as both the sole and the heel.Women like wedges not only for their high heels and cosmopolitan look but also the grand and fashionable feel they give. Thick wedge heel with a flowing skirt (not with pencil skirt and capris) will show your skinny ankle even thinner and looks clunky when used with close-fitting attires.
Both these heel models are less popular. Some unexpected fashion boom can save them from extinction! Louis heels are characterized by a curvy moderately high heel. Whereas Spool heels are characterized by sand-clock shaped heel .i.e., thick at both ends and thin in the middle.
These are normally casual flat, but sometmes high heelds shoes originating from the Pyrenees. They usually have a canvas or cotton fabric upper and a flexible sole made of rope or rubber material moulded to look like rope. The jute rope sole is the defining characteristic of espadrille;the uppers vary widely in style.
This is a type of woman's shoe that is backless and is characterized by a strap that crosses behind the heel or ankle. A slingback is distinguishable from an ankle-strap shoe in that the latter has a strap that crosses around the front of the ankle as well as the back.
StilettoA stiletto heel is a long, thin, high heel found on some boots and
shoes, usually for women. It is named after the stiletto dagger,
the phrase being first recorded in the early 1930s.Stiletto heels
may vary in length from 1 inch to 10 inches.
Kitten Heels
A kitten heel is a short, slender heel, usually from 3.5 centimeters (1.5 inches) to 4.75 centimeters (1.75 inches) high with a slight curve setting the heel in from the edge of the shoe. The style was popularized by Audrey Hepburn

Platform heel
Spiky heels demand a lot from you; you cannot walk in them just like that. You need to get trained and waste half the time you wasted in your schools! Platform heel is much friendlier and make you feel walking above the ground.
