I have to wear some new heel to my mother's house today and they hurt so bad. Are they any tricks to breaking them in fast? I have 2 hours til i have to leave. I'm gonna wear them either way but some advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Take a hair dryer on high and blow dry the inside/sides of the shoe until they are warm enough to stretch out a bit do this a few times and then put them on your feet. It should help just be careful not to over do it :)

I agree with Ashley. You want to be very careful since you can melt the glue which will ruin the inside of the shoe.

BTW - If I knew where you lived I'd so swipe those shoes! REALLY cute!

Bend the back of the shoe....that is usually blister central (on the back of the heels of our feet). Don't apply any kind of heat to shoes due to the glue (as mentioned by Yasmin and Ashley). Will kill the life of the shoe. I usually place bandaids in the "blister" zones of the shoe. After a few wears I can remove and the shoes are broken in. Also, while at home just wear them around the house as well. Love the shoes by the way. :)

I've done this to countless pairs of heels and have never had any problem with it effecting the life of the shoe

(make sure the shoes are clean) stick a well sealed bag of water in the shoe, then put the shoe in the freezer.... Works rather well
