The solution to painful heels? Wear flats

MANILA, Philippines - Beauty is pain, as my aesthetician likes to say as she rips off a fine layer of hot wax from my brows in one powerful tug, but that doesn’t mean you need to be in a constant state of suffering to look good.

Like the mind-numbing pain that results from wearing five-inch heels to a never-ending cocktail party or the strain from running around in uncomfortable platforms, discomfort is a constant companion for high heel worshippers. Posh Pocket shoes is the sartorial solution, like a pretty Band-Aid you could say, to uncomfortable footwear. When the going gets tough, as my mother likes to preach, the tough slip into flats.

Slip into a pair of Posh Pocket’s comfy foldable flats in between appointments, after painfully long parties (on the way to the parking lot) or when you’re at the office. The array of flats come in a zip-pouch small enough to fit into your purse. When your soles need relief, change into the Posh flats and shove your heels into the zip pouch which transforms into a tote bag.

Sometimes comfort trumps style, but with most flats these days, you can have both.
