Here are some of our most Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Is it easy to return an online order?
A: Yes. When visiting any online footwear retailer always check their return policy first. Retailers like endless.com offer all returns free of charge. Always be careful when opening an online order, repackage item in the original packaging and apply the return label provided.
Q: How do I know if the shoes I am buying are genuine designer shoes?
A: If a deal looks too good to be true then it probably is. If you have not heard of the company, they do not provide a real address and contact telephone number and/or the prices are massively reduced then your taking a calculated gamble.
Q: Do you know if it is appropriate to wear high heels if I’m only 5 ft tall?
A: Yes, it is very much appropriate to wear heels when you’re of short stature. You will look more proportionate, feel sexier and be more confident. Don’t go from always wearing low or no heels to a 4″ stiletto heel. Work your way into higher heels over time. You want to be comfortable and be able to walk properly and painfree.
Q: What does d’Orsay mean?
A: Named after Count d’Orsay, a painter, sculptor and man of fashion living in the early to mid 18th century, the d’Orsay is a type of pump usually with a closed heel and toe. It is cut down to the sole at the sides leaving the arch of the foot visible. Recently open toed styles with a closed heel and cutout sides are also considered d’Orsays. Leaving the shank of the shoe bare creates a sexy silhouette appealing to women and men.
Q: If you have orthotics can you still wear dress shoes?
A: Yes, orthotics benefit anyone with foot pain or discomfort – including high heel wearers. Walking in high heeled shoes forces your body weight to be focused on the front of your feet, causing the forefoot structure to collapse. This excess force and friction leads to common conditions like ball of foot pain, burning sensation under the foot (Metatarsalgia), callous and corns – even aching legs. You can get orthotics made for dress shoes, especially high heels, online at Footminders or talk to your Orthodontist.
Q: My calves hurt after wearing high heels for any period of time.
A: This is very common and can be relieved by doing simple stretching exercises. My favorite one is to stand on a step holding on to the railing for balance and lowering the heels as far as they can before raising them up again. Also, don’t wear the same type of shoes all the time, wear a variety of heel heights and flats to get your calf muscles working through their greatest range of movement.
Q: What is the difference between clogs and mules?
A: Clogs are shoes with open backs and closed toes, and are often referred to as mules, with the main difference being the soles and heels. Mules can have any type of heel whereas the heel of a clog is a platform-type heel, and the soles are thick and sturdy.
Q: What makes the Sexy Shoes Expert an expert?
A: I was asked this question on my Facebook page the other day. Of course I’ve thought about this question many times over the past couple of years and here’s is the answer I gave. I consider myself an expert because I have spent countless hours studying up on the subject, reading through books, magazines and websites plus I research what’s new in regards to shoes and accessories on a regular basis. I don’t just write weekly articles and reviews for the Sexy Shoes Expert website, but I also have a column in the Definitive Woman Magazine, which goes into print four times a year. Lastly, I love to wear sexy high heels and fashion accessories and I’m always looking for a bargain buy. It’s my passion!
Q: Where is the best place online to sell my slightly used designer shoes?
A: Ebay would be the most obvious choice for selling high end designer shoes or any slightly used shoes for that matter. Ebay has been proven to be a reliable site and they receive a ton of traffic. I found a site on Facebook called ‘Shoe Gals’ and I’ve come across other websites where you can buy, sell or trade shoes, but I don’t know if they get a lot of traffic or how much commission they charge.
