			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>People  who think they have big feet often ask me how to make their feet appear smaller.</strong> Usually my first response is that their feet are probably not as big as they perceive them to be. When something bothers us about the way we look, we tend to exaggerate it in our heads. Ask someone else who is not as critical and you&#8217;ll find they usually don&#8217;t agree. Never the less, being subjective, that&#8217;s what WE see.<br />
<strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Bear in mind</strong> that there is only <strong>1/3</strong> of an inch difference between whole sizes.<br />
If you wear a size 11 shoe and you wish you wore a size 9, look at a ruler to actually see what 2/3&#8242;s looks like and you will find that it really doesn&#8217;t look like much of a difference. Remember your feet have to be in proportion to your body for them to carry you properly.</p>
<p>That being said, if you still think they are big here are a few good general rules you can easily apply.</p>
<p><strong>First conside</strong>r that some styles that make your feet look shorter can also make them look wider so for the sake of this blog, I will address length. If shoes look longer out of the box than others do, they will look the same on your feet.</p>
<p><strong>High heels</strong>, (as  many of you know are my favorite), make your feet look smaller. For those who can not wear them high, opt for chunky heels or wedge style, which are easier to wear. Because there is not much variance in a mans shoe, a hint of sole around the upper part of the shoe will make the feet appear shorter.<br />
<strong>Pointy shoes</strong> will definitely make the foot look longer but also thinner<strong>.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Avoid strappy sandals </strong>that expose too much of the foot. Peep-toe or sling back styles work best,</p>
<p><strong>Darker colors</strong> will work well but don&#8217;t just stick to black, brown, or navy. Try grays, earth tones, and deeper shades of reds, blues, purples, or greens. Avoid pastels.</p>
<p><strong>Bows, buckles</strong>, lace treatment, or a fringed tongue will make the feet seem smaller. Men should consider tassels or straps that cross the shoe closer to the toes.</p>
<p>Whether you have small or large feet, accept who you are and what makes you unique and beautiful.                                      <strong>Always</strong> <strong>Walk with Pride</strong>.</p>
