How often do you sacrifice confort for style?

Nowadays the fashion industry launches one impressive shoe model after the other but they're usually high heels. Therefore, it is difficult to walk in those, our feet hurt and other long-term health issues may occur with extensive use. Women always want to look their best and a lot of us are really willing to me in pain just to achieve beauty. What are your views on this? Do you strive to look feminine and deal with all the negative consequences or you wouldn't sacrifice your comfort and health for all the beauty in the world?

At weddings... Other than that, comfort pretty much rules.

Being a girly girl I believe beauty is pain. I love fasion, and I love heels , wedges platforms etc.. I would sacrifice my comfort for style and beauty, it is a custom that has been handed downd to us, just look at the women that sacrificed food water and breath just to fit in a corsset!

I have found that there are some heels and some wedges etc. that actually are comfortable, as weird as it may sound. That said, most heels and wedges really aren't, so you need to be pretty picky. But one does not need to be uncomfortable just because you like heels!

I don't like to sacrifice comfort for style. If i am not happy and comfortable in a shoe, that I don't like to wear it.

I have a lot of shoes too. I also love to wear high heels. But i make sure that im comfortable with it. Even if your shoes are in good design or style if it will hurt my feet i dont want it to use more often.

it is true that the most tempting designs of ladies footwear are in high heal form but there are many superb designs in flat as well, one just has to search the market very well. flats also look hot when paired up nicely, they are as feminine and beautiful as high heels can be. sacrificing comfort is no way to beautiful. where as there are some people who can carry high heels very well and still be comfortable. and it is not always that high heels are uncomfortable. purchasing one pair from a reputed company, and trying them nicely to the satisfaction, can bring you a very comfortable pair of stilettos. whereas there are medium high heels, that can be comfortable and stylish too. further if we have only to wear them for 2 or 3 hours, there is no harm.

I don't sacrifice comfort with style.when it comes to shoes,I am not really a fan of stilettos.I love Mary Janes,wedges,gladiator flats,booties,and boots.I love the comfort of wearing gladiator flats.I can walk in them all day.I have gel cushions for my feet.the most heel height I can wear without the gel cushion is 3 inches.I like fusing comfort and style.

For special occasions, such as parties, anniversaries, weddings etc. But on a day to day basis, on a regular day, I do think it is possible to be both comfortable and stylish at the same time!
