Im 5 10 and I have been told I have nice legs in heels by my friends but I'm too self conscious about being too tall if I wear heels. I do love heels but like I say, I'm self conscious! I'm a size 12 (uk) and have a nice figure. My boyfriend is 5 9 and not keen on me being much taller than him.

First of all I would advise to wear whatever makes you feel good but I think 5 ft10 is not that incredible tall, its above average for a woman, but not extremely. Check the stats. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_height#Average_adult_height_around_the_world Go for the high heels and to hell anyway with what everyone thinks. At least youll have the advantage to have breathing space when you go to shows.

Personally, I love tall women, but then I'm 6'3" in bare feet, so I'd have no problem with it at all. Quite the opposite.

However, your bf is about average for a guy and you are very tall for a lady, even without heels.

So, 2 questions.

Do you want your bf to feel less uncomfortable about his/your height difference?

Why is it that you are self conscience about being too tall in heels?

The answer to both of these is to not wear heels.

However, you give the impression of wanting to break free from any constraints on what you do....therefore, the solution would be wear heels and get a taller bf.

Harsh, but true. Sorry ;-)

I would have to say its too tall, not because you are actually too tall- you can be any height you want to be, but because you feel worried about it.

To pull off the tall leggy look you have to walk tall and proud, if you slouch or cramp in (and often you wont even realise you are doing this because its a subconcious thing) then you will either look fat or like you cant hold your drink. Neither look good.

If your boyfr is undermining you by not appreciating you being tall and stunning, you will pick up on this and it will affect your confidence and you will slouch to accomadate him without even thinking about it. So french sole (flats) are a better option.

Or alternatively go out without your boyfr!!

Personally I feel that it could be too tall to wear heels. I am 5 foot 10 and do not wear heels because I feel that I am over looking some people and talking down to them.
You have the figure, flaunt that instead!!

It all depends on why you want to wear them. If your boyfriend is a bit upset and this is upsetting your nightout and you feel self conscious; maybe you should start wearing them when going out with tall friends. Then if you find you feel empowered and really enjoy being out with them you will have to have a talk with your boyfiend.
Maybe you will have some difficult decisions to take.

I'm 5'8" and wear heels (3 - 4") all the time. I love being tall and flaunting it. Short women often wish they were as tall.

If they make you look beautiful, wear them. If your boy friend doesn't like you being taller than him, wear the heels when your out with your gal friends and just wear some cute wedges or flats around your beau.

Yeah, Im the same height, I just wear knee high boots without heels. Its still dressy and you wont feel like a giant. Besides, heels are bad for your legs, they cause spider veins and wearing heels all the time puts your calf muscles in an unnatural position, causing them to shorten over a long period of time.
