Getting your Feet Fit for Spring

With the arrival of Spring/Summer, we're greeted with an enticing array of open, slinky footwear! Nine West's platforms and wedges, particularly Studio 9 (two of them are pictured here) are truly a feast for the eyes.

I don't know about you, but after experiencing "foot hibernation" in the winter months, I'll need to activate "damage control" if I have any hope of wearing this season's offerings with some level of panache! If you have the same plight, read on ...

Here's my best tip so far; you can spend anything from $40 to $100 on a pedicure or get your feet properly looked after, and visit a podiatrist.

The difference is that your podiatrist will deal with dry skin, corns, and toenails (if necessary) and will leave you with feet that not only look better, but that actually are better too!

From a budgetting perspective, a visit to your podiatrist can really pay off if you have an 'extras' inclusion in your private health fund. You should be able to claim your podiatrist visit, leaving you with a smaller bill once your rebate is applied.

The way I see it, later the same evening you could pamper your feet and polish your toenails, and come away with feet that look completely stunning at a fraction of the price of getting a professional pedicure, and you will have dealt with any real problems your feet may have.

The end result is that you can feel confident wearing all that gorgeous footwear!
