Clear Heels

Any woman who has ever bought a pair of shoes knows the addictive nature of shoe shopping. With the vast array of materials and heel heights, its hard not to love shoes. However, after awhile, the cloth or vinyl covered shoes can become boring and it seems as though they all look the same. Isn't there a shoe that is different from all the rest, with its own personality and flare? Yes! Clear heels are the most unique of all shoes. A pair of these clear shoes at first glance gives the illusion that you have no shoes at all and are simply walking gracefully on air. Other clear heels have little bobbles inside them, while some are even lighted! Because they're colorless, a pair of clear heels are most versatile,as they'll go with any outfit.

Of course, the shoe has to be held on somehow. The upper foot band is made from a comfortable, crystal clear material. Rhinestones or metallic bows can decorate this clear upper, with a simple and elegant beauty.

Styles are just as vast and varied as regular shoes. Wedge heels, always a favorite, look something like what you see when water evaporates off a road. Air seems to ripple, causing a stunning illusion. Platform spike clear heels are especially fun, as the inside often holds something interesting. Glitter or confetti, immersed in a type of gel, is just one of many decorative items that may be embedded in a pair of clear heels. On casino floors you might spot a woman trotting around in a pair of clear spike heels that have actual dice bouncing around in them. Some are like snow globes, with liquid cradling little shimmery hearts.

In Hollywood, this type of shoe is quite popular, especially at dance and disco clubs. A lighted heel is the most beautiful of all! As you dance in the dark or dimly lit club, it looks as though your feet have their own personal set of dancing lights. Some lights flash giving an effect of Christmas lights, while others have rows of runway style lighting. No other shoe but a pair of clear heels could pull off this effect.

It's important to properly care for a pair of clear heels. If you wear them every day, a layer of dirt will develop on the bottom, staining it. If this happens, soak just the bottoms of your shoes in a dish of bleach, and your shoes will be renewed. Avoid situations in which they'll get scuffed. Once scuffed, it can be difficult to repair them.

However, these things happen, especially on a crowded dance floor. In the event of an unsightly scuff mark, there is still hope. There is a product used for cleaning and repairing scratches for glasses, in which scratches are filled with a clear liquid. Just carefully brush or swab this on your shoes, and they'll be ready for wear again and again. Remember to wash your clear heels with soap and water after every use.
