As the saying goes, "Good shoes take you to good places." Be it a date night, girl's night out, family gathering or a wedding dinner, there's a pair of shoe for every occasion. And if you are wondering what are the chances you would be required to wear heels to these functions? Pretty High.

If you are new to the heels game and do not want to look like a fashion disaster, scroll along for our beginner's guide to all the heels every girl needs to know (and own) and find out how to rock them in style and comfort!

# Chunky Heels

Chunky heels are our favourite go-to because they can give us the extra height and provide us with stability.

If you are the kind of girl who loves wearing sandals, these heels are definitely a must-have. On days where you want to look chic, put on your favourite jeans, a cute top and slip on one of these chunky heels. We promise you'll slay the crowd!

If you are going to be standing or walking around for long hours, give your feet the support it needs with an insole! It can prevent your feet from sliding forward and also keep your feet cool, dry and comfortable.

# Mules

Mules are perfect for ladies who are always on the go. Don't want to waste an extra minute each morning putting the strap on? Then you got to own a pair.

While mules were worn as bedroom slippers in the distant past, the tables have turned and they have become a much-loved fashion statement!

If you want a versatile pair of heels that can accompany you to work, date night or Saturday brunch, this pair is for you.

Need a style tip? Pair it with an off-shoulder top, denim skirt and slip on a pair of mules. We promise you'll look cute!

If you want to model around in comfort, consider adding an insole.

With no back strap to support your feet, there might be occasions where your mules can just slip out. With a reliable and comfortable insole, it can prevent your feet from sliding forward and provide you with the comfort you need from heel to ball of foot!

# Pumps

Pumps probably need no introduction as it is one of the most commonly worn heels of all time. Basic pumps usually come with a strapless closed back that allows it to be slipped on and off without any hassle.

The upper front portion of pumps is stylised to be closer to the toes than the top of the foot so ladies with wider feet might find it a little challenging to fit into it. When worn for long, blisters will usually form at the back of the ankle and toes.

If you want to wear it in comfort, invest in a reliable and comfortable back of heel cushion to protect your feet. Foot Petals' Heavenly Heelz cushion is a popular choice among office ladies who wear heels frequently. Not only can it protect your feet from blisters, but its PORON performance cushioning can also let you walk around in comfort.

For those of you who are always rushing from one place to another for meetings, you might want to consider adding some ball of foot cushions to enhance your heels experience.

Foot Petals' Tip Toes can help to absorb shock, relieve stress and tension on bones and joints. It also keeps your feet from sliding forward, preventing your precious feet from "Ugly Overhang" and "Toe Scrunch."

# Oxfords/Boat Shoes

If you love walking around with some extra height but do not want to risk twisting your ankle, opt for Oxfords. Though they may look a little more on the masculine side, they are a good alternative for ladies who are always on the go.

One thing to note is that these shoes are known to give ladies nasty blisters! So if you want to invest in a pair, we strongly suggest that you go prepared.

Similar to our recommendations above, Foot Petals' Heavenly Heelz could be just the armour your ankles need.

Besides helping you prevent blisters, it can also be used on the inner top of your shoes to ease friction, which is very apt for heels such as Oxfords!

If you need more reasons to try it, it comes in a pack of three stylised in cute Hello Kitty motifs!

# Platform/Cut-Out Heels

As its name suggests, cut out heels are best known for the cut-outs on its front upper. It is funky and definitely is a pair we would wear out to a party. Think leather jacket, slim fit jeans and a pair of these heels!

To help you break into this funky pair, protect your feet and help it get ready for a night of fun by adding some hot spot relievers.

Foot Petals' Pressure Pointz hot spot relievers can help protect your feet and toes against blisters and red marks by adding comfort to trouble spots! If you think nothing can save your big or little toe, Pressure Pointz will prove you wrong.

Another alternative to Pressure Pointz would be Strappy Straps. Thanks to its slim strippy nature, it can be attached to heels or even sandals with very thin straps, securing them in place.

It can also be easily trimmed and can be customised to fit any heels or sandals with thin straps. If you do not want to adjust your shoe's straps every few minutes you walk, try Strappy Straps!
