Tall Girls Wearing Heels?

All my life I have felt insecure because of my height. When I looked in the mirror, I always thought I looked man-ish or EXTREMELY unattractive. It took me years to think, or even look at, a pair of heels. It was when I moved to the big city of Atlanta  that I told myself, "Hey, I can wear whatever I want to wear!" I started to wear heels at school. Then the comments began. 
"OMG why are you wearing those? You are already tall enough!"
"Wow you are such a giant!".
"Girl you need to take those off, you already make me feel short!"

I began to feel so insecure. I started to hate myself even more. I remember just lying on my bed and I started to cry immensely. Finally, my mother saw that I was distress and asked what was wrong. I told her about the hate I was getting at school about wearing heels and she gave me amazing advice that stuck with me, even today!

1) DO WHAT YOU WANT: Why should you stop what you like doing because someone dislikes it? Skrew that! If you are tall and love your heels, then I say girl "Werk" it!

2) THEY ONLY SAY THINGS BECAUSE THEY ARE INSECURE/JEALOUS: Think about it. Why would someone shorter than you care that you are wearing heels unless they are insecure about their height. Some people like to retaliate on others by demising them and making them feel less about themselves because they do not feel good about themselves. NEVER let someone make you feel bad about yourself because you are BEAUTIFUL:)

3) DO BE RUDE. JUST CALMLY SAY YOUR PLEA. If someone ask you, "Why do you wear heels?" Don't become belligerent. I know, it's very annoying when people always ask that question, but there is no reason to get upset or mad. Just calmly reply to it. I like to ask them a question and say, "Why did you wear that shirt?" and they usually reply, "Because I like it". Then i'll say "EXACTLY!" 

4) ALWAYS BE CONFIDENT. Don't ever doubt yourself. No matter if you are 5'6 or 6'2, your height is beautiful. Heels are just a fashionable way for us to show off our gorgeous long legs :) Always remember three things, "Pose.Strut.Werk!"
