Grow your height the celebrity way


There are many people in the world who want to grow their height but are unable. Heels provide a way but not always for men. Actor Tom Cruise shows us a way of quickly increasing height to upto 6 inches. Yes, 6 inches.

The height of Tom Cruise is 5 feet and 7 inches while Cameron Diaz stands at a whopping 5 feet and 9 inches. The duo were seen together in Tokyo for the premiere of their upcoming movie Knight & Day where Tom was found to be equalling the height of Cameron who is not just 2 inches taller than her but was also wearing 4 inches of heels. So, any guesses how much heel was Tom Cruise wearing to look of the same height of Cameron – atleast 6 inches.

A Guide to Men's Dress Shoes

Walking in New Leather Shoes

Men' s dress and formal shoes can be hard to buy because; unlike women's shoes they simply can not be matched exactly to the outfit. Color really determines how formal the footwear is. A black shoe is considered more formal than a brown or beige shoe. The sleeker the shine or finish on the shoe the more formal the shoe is considered. Even if it goes against command sense; the less ornate the design of the shoe the more formal the shoe is considered.
A highly shined black shoe with little design would be appropriate for a black tie event and a light colored shoe with a design may be appropriate for church or work.

The majority of "dress " shoes for men; are made out of leather. Shoes made out of full grain or top leather is the most durable and achieves the highest shine.

Dress shoes that are colored are often made out of "corrected grain leather". This leather is buffed with an artificial grain to cover the natural imperfections in the leather.

Suede is a napped leather finish that is actually softer than top grain leather. This is a durable material that many more "causal " shoes that could be worn for work are made out of.

Ultra Suede is a micro fiber knockoff of suede is less durable but again used in many kinds of shoes that could be considered "causal dress"

Leather shoes come in a variety of colors.

• Basic black which is good for most people.

• Brown that can be worn with various shades of browns and neutrals..

• Chestnut which can be worn with any earth tones

• Burgundy which looks good with dark colors and a variety of grays and muted earth tones.

If you want a good everyday dress shoe you can hardly go wrong with; consider the diverse style of the Oxford shoe. They come in a variety of styles for many different work or social situations.

• Wingtips are common type of Oxford and look like a bird spreading it wings.

• Bluchers look like they were sewn together in segments and give an opportunity to show off different color and texture styles..

• Balmorals are sleek and stream lined and in black can stand in place of the Italian loafer for formality.

• Cap toe Oxfords are less formal and can be used as a formal shoe when the style is not decorated or as an everyday Oxford with decorations.

• Saddle Oxfords have a saddle-shape of leather .They can be worn in dual dark and light colors by the daring.

• Kilties have a tongue with fringed leather . They are often seen as the perfect "school " shoe as they can be worn easily with most boy school uniforms.

The style and price one is going to pay for dress shoes is determined by use. You may consider 'renting' a pair of formal wear shoes for a one time even such as a wedding. This is especially true if the footwear is for a child or teenager. They will have outgrown the shoes long before they attend another formal event. This can also be true of "Easter shoes" . I have purchased my children's "Easter Shoes' at the children's consignment shop as they will only be worn for a few hours on a holiday. Our church encourages the youth to be casual the rest of the year so they do not get the mileage out of converting their "Easter shoes " to "Sunday shoes". It is nice to pass on your Easter shoes to cousins or neighbors who may too only have a small use for special occasion dress shoes.

A good school shoe for boy before they hit the fashion conscience stage is many time a suede running shoe or hiking shoe. They can be treated to be more water resistant than a leather loafer and generally fair well on the play ground. They tend to look nicer in darker colors than plain tennis shoes. They are sort of a practical compromise between a play and a dress shoe for younger boys.

Most men should invest in two pairs of casual dress shoes for work. Switching your everyday dress shoes will give a longer life to both pairs and keep both pair "broken in " and comfortable to wear. It is also probably safe to have a more expensive " Italian " pair of shoes in your closet for unexpected formal events and special dates. Italian loafers are especially timeless in their style and in black with do for most formal events.

A little insight and a sense of your own style can help take the fear out of shopping for dress shoes for most men.

Show off your other traits

When talking to a woman you've just met, show her your sense of humor and charm. Don't remain focused on your height, or whomever you're talking to will also concentrate on whatever you don't like about yourself.

Show her your standout personality by being attentive, cracking a joke or two, flirting, and being the gentleman that you are. A trick is to be friendly to others you meet (especially when the object of your affection is around), and she'll see that you're naturally a nice guy who's friendly to everyone because you're comfortable in your own skin. And if your personality shines through and your appearance is great to boot, she'll be looking up to you all night, as will all the other men.

Be confident

Confidence is of prime importance when talking to a woman or anyone for that matter.

If you're feeling sorry for yourself and blaming your lack of dates on your miserable height, women will believe this too. Nothing turns women off more than a man who's insecure and unhappy with himself, but if you're confident, she'll forget about your height altogether. The trick is to be confident without being arrogant -- you can feel like you're great, but don't act like you're on a throne and deserve a royal salute.



Go after shorter women

If you feel that taller women may not give you the time of day, and you don't want to be reminded of your height whenever you're walking side-by-side -- even when she's not in heels -- just go for women that are your height or a bit shorter.

There are plenty of gorgeous, petite women, so it's up to you to approach them. I don't even consider this to be lowering your standards since going for women who are not model-height isn't exactly scraping the bottom of the barrel; but hey, if your dream girl is a woman who makes Elle MacPherson look like a dwarf, you may just have to aim a little lower.

definite don'ts

Don't bulk up
You can go to the gym and get in shape, but don't overcompensate for your height by making up for it in width. You don't want to look like one of those men who have huge arms and wear tight T-shirts to show of their bulging biceps, so that people won't notice their height. This will only make you look stubby and stumpy -- and men, remember that proportion is key.

Don't feel sorry for yourself

Even if you feel that all your problems are due to your lack of height, this negative attitude will only make things worse in your life. It's tempting to make like George Costanza and be miserable, but your self-pity will only make you look smaller in others' eyes.

measure your success

While you may like to compare yourself to your tall buddies, you'll have to accept that your height isn't something you can change, at least not until men's heels return to mainstream.

This means that you'll have to make everything else about yourself grand -- your intelligence, sense of humor, personality, confidence, charisma, and style. And if this seems like a tall order to fill, just think of it as your rise to the top.

Introduction and History of Elevator Shoes for Men

Elevator Shoe is very much similar to ladies high heels, except they are invisible, feels better, and actually improving your posture.

They work the same way as women's high heels with a elevated foot step back at the heel area. Elevator shoes aka height increasing shoes, man hidden high heel shoes, height enhancing shoes, lifting shoes etc. Nowadays elevator shoes are rapidly getting more popular because of they are more and more stylist yet functioning perfectly.

Custom insert may be a alternate solution however not as effective as the already well made elevator shoes. Height increasing insole or insert are ideal for high profile shoes as boot style or high top sneakers. Regular "Loafer" style's back portion (the back of the shoes and collar area) is mostly too short to accommodate your heels and hold tight. Your shoes become "slippers" and will walk funny. Nonetheless shoe lifts are more versatile and customizable than elevator shoes.

Our products feature 2 to 5.2 inches in height increasing and are comfortable enough for everyday wear. After a very short period of usage you will prefer the feeling of standing straighter. Many of customer prefer them over regular shoes.

How to Make High Heels Elevator Shoes More Comfortable

Step1

Use shoe inserts/pads from the drugstore for the balls of your feet. These reduce some of the pressure placed on your foot when walking or standing in high heels. Most are self-adhesive and can be easily place into the shoe.


Step2

Try heels from a comfort line such as Naturalizer, Easy Spirit or Aerosoles. These shoes are designed for both comfort and style and feature padded insoles.


Step3

Look for shoes that have a “hidden” platform built in that supports the front of the shoe. Lust-worthy Christian Louboutin shoes offer this style, but you can also find the style in lines by Steve Madden and Guess.


Step4

A shoe with a slightly thicker heel, as opposed to a stiletto, is more comfortable for all day wear or walking. Shop for heels that can offer this type of support.


Step5

While sky-high stilettos are to die for, a heel can be a little lower and still look sexy. Experiment with kitten heels for a feminine look that’s also comfortable and work appropriate. Wedges are also another way to wear heels, since they offer the height of a heel with maximum comfort.

Step6

Extra comfort padding insole will eliminate shock and increase the softness of the impact while walking

Fashion Tips for Shorter Men


Before we start with the fashion advice, the following are some simple yet often overlooked tips that can help you appear taller:

1. Maintaining good posture is key if you want to hit your maximum height potential. Remember to sit with your back straight and stand proud with your head up high at all times. A slouched stance will only make you look shorter, not to mention insecure.

2. Keep in mind that, as a general rule, short hair works best for shorter men. Long hair tends to hide the neck and shoulders, making your head and body look like one body part, which doesn't help you in your quest to look taller.

Wear vertical stripes
Anything that elongates your height is a good thing. For example, vertical stripes in clothing can help extend the look of your shorter body.

Opt for dark shades & light fabrics
In addition, dark colors, especially black, tend to have a slimming effect and help shorter men seem more elongated. The same applies to light or medium-weight fabrics. Heavier fabrics, on the other hand, tend to make you look bulkier and shorter.

A proper fit is key
Remember it's important that your clothes fit flawlessly. Looser garments can make you look stumpy, so opt for a fit that is trim rather than baggy. In terms of sweaters and T-shirts, V-necks can help make your torso look longer. Turtlenecks, on the other hand, can make you look stumpy, as they conceal your neck.

Pants
Do not wear your pants too high; you should wear them just above your hips. Also, avoid wearing low-rise pants (even if they are the trendier alternative), as they tend to make legs look shorter than they already are. Your trousers should break on your shoes slightly more than average, to help make your legs look longer by covering your socks properly. Finally, keep in mind that pants with no pleats or a single pleat are more flattering than multiple pleats.

Just look good
Just remember that the key is not necessarily to look as tall you can, but to look as good as you can. The proper fit and the right styles can make you look great, regardless of your height.

How to Make Regular Width Shoes Work with Narrow Width Feet

Finding shoes that fit perfectly for people with narrow feet is very hard. Only a small handful of shoe brands create shoes geared for people with narrow feet. Most people with narrow feet have to suffer with regular width shoes that can cause a variety of problems. If your shoes do not fit snugly, your feet can slip around in the shoes which can cause irritation, blisters, and ulcers. Injuries are not only limited to those just mentioned, shoes that don't fit properly can also cause you to twist an ankle if your feet slip around inside your shoes. Especially people who are physically active and participate in running or any other sports activity. It is very common to twist an ankle because of poorly fitting shoes.

So what can you do if you have narrow feet? If you cannot find the shoes you want in narrow width, there are a couple of things that you can do to help your regular width shoes fit more snugly.

If you find the perfect pair of shoes that you just can't live without, but you are a little discouraged because they do not come in narrow width, no need to worry. With just a couple of techniques, your regular width shoes will fit much better and you will reduce your chances of injuries in the future.

First of all, purchase a cushioned insole to insert into your shoes. You want to make sure that the insole offers heel, arch, and shock support. A well cushioned insole will not only add support to your feet and joints, but will also fit snugly inside your shoe to help reduce friction. An insole also helps to stabilize your foot inside your shoe to keep your foot in place and reduce slipping.

Another technique that can help your shoes fit better if you have narrow feet, is the way you lace your shoes. If your shoes have two sets of eyelets on each side, lace through the ones furthest from the tongue. This will help bring both sides of the shoe together more tightly. There are several different types of lacing techniques, and many of these techniques can help cure a lot of shoe problems. If you are not quite sure how to lace your shoes, there are several websites on the internet that offer pictures and step-by-step guides to different lacing techniques.
If you have narrow feet, try following these suggestions to reduce irritation and pain with your normal width shoes. You no longer have to worry if a brand comes in narrow width; with these techniques, you can now wear any type of tennis shoes that you wish.
