Measuring Your Shoe Size

Measuring your shoes size

Have you ever needed to know how to measure your shoe size?

You need to know pretty accurately if you are ordering online

Having the correct size shoe is very important to having comfort and stability.

Too small and your foot is cramped and will hurt, too big and your foot will move around too much and you could slip over and hurt yourself.

Method For Measuring Your Shoe Size:

-Grab a piece of paper longer than your foot and tape it down to the ground.

-Place your foot on the paper and trace around your foot with a pen or pencil.(try and do this while standing with weight on both feet evenly)

-Remember to measure both feet as they can vary by quite a bit.

-Try not to have the line too much bigger than the foot (by way of the thickness of pen or pencil)

-You can then measure the length from the top of foot (big toe usually) to the bottom of the heel.

-This becomes the length measurement.

-Your width measurement is the same repeated by measuring from the two widest parts of your foot.

The length has many variables while there is usually only three different widths (a, b & c) for the widths

Note: best to measure your size at the end of day while foot is most swollen after a day of walking around.

You now have the important info and are ready to order.

Tiara Beginnings

Tiaras originally come from a long way back and were used originally by kings and emperors as a type of crown. In the Assyrians age during 934 BC a tiara consisted of two horns and a peak in the middle, which acted as a symbol of authority.

Jewels were not so prominent in this age and feathers were used. However as times have changed and tiaras had become more widely used in the 1600′s during celebrations, jewels were more commonplace.

Some of the most beautiful headpieces had a nice balance of glimmering jewels and nice ribbons and lace. It soon changed to important ladies wearing tiaras also.
