STILETTOS

Did You Know...

A stiletto heel is a long, thin, high heel found on some boots and shoes, usually for women. It is named after the stiletto dagger, the phrase being first recorded in the early 1930s.  Stiletto heels may vary in length from 2.5 centimetres (1 inch) to 25 cm (10 inches) or more if a platform sole is used, and are sometimes defined as having a diameter at the ground of less than 1 cm (slightly less than half an inch). Stiletto-style heels 5 cm or shorter are called kitten heels. Not all high slim heels merit the description stiletto.

Stilettos give the optical illusion of a longer, slimmer leg, a smaller foot, and a greater overall height. They also alter the wearer's posture and gait, flexing the calf muscles, and making the bust and buttocks more prominent.

Using the right makeup brushes can completely change the way the makeup looks on your face. Unfortunately, many women don't realize that the particular brush they use makes a huge difference in how their face looks. Going down the makeup brush aisle in your local department store can seem like a very confusing task, which is why it's essential to know which brush is ideal for certain makeup styles. The simple fact is that, by using the right brush, you can copy the looks that you often see in movies and magazines.
