We’ve all heard the saying “beauty is pain,” and we tell ourselves that every time we buy a new pair of killer stilettos (sure they hurt, but they look so fab on my feet, and that’s what matters, right?). Wrong.
Sure, the words “comfortable stiletto” might be an oxymoron and totally not exist, but we all deserve to own trendy shoes that won’t cause us any pain, don’t you think?
