Speaking of best high heel shoes, fashion writer Charla Krupp made a list of high heels that don’t hurt four years ago in 2006. We think what she says about these shoes are still very relevant today. Here are her picks and why she picked them:

kate spade new york’s Karolina Pump: This is reportedly the best stilleto out there because its very comfortable. It’s rounded toes gives your feet more room to breathe. This glossy leather pump is made in Italy and comes in various colors. Our favorite, which wouldn’t surprise Deena, is this red one.

Cole Haan “Tivona” Air Slings in Black Patent Leather: Also in Charla’s list of the best high heels is this Tivona Air Sling shoes by Cole Haan. Why does she (and we) like this one? Because it incorporates Nike’s “Air Sole” technology with your fabulous designer heels. The result? A comfortable and sexy shoes for the ladies.

Aerosoles “Sleigh Thread”: At less than a hundred bucks (we saw it on sale at US$ 29.99), this is one of the best buys out there. Why does Charla like this? Here’s what she said:

Rubber soles are more flexible than hard leather, and they grip the floor, which ups your comfort level. Also, there’s a diamond-patterned sole which distributes your weight, and even the leather dying is done in a special way that adds more flexibility.

The Sleigh Thread by Aerosoles is proof that you don’t have to spend a lot of money to have gorgeous shoes.

Easy Spirit’s “Edrie” by Tara Subkoff: Actress/fashion designer Tara Subkoff sure knows her shoes so its not a surprise that Easy Spirit collaborated with her the result of which is the well-reviewed Edrie. Charla described this as the “best for comfort in all categories”.
