Tall women walk in high heels to boost confidence, according to new study

Being lucky to be tall may not be a cakewalk it appears. It has been observed that tall women too like to wear high heels to give their confidence a boost.

Some studies had previously found that wearing heels and standing up straighter, makes women's legs look nicer, and adds on a bit of an extra spring in every step, the Guardian reported. Men usually consider women wearing high heels to be sexy or hot, but apart from this, women have their own reasons to opt for high heels.

Though it is an individual choice, as per some researches people tend to wonder why tall girls slip into stilettos. Tall girls say they don't feel intimidated wearing high heels that make them look taller.

Oscar-winning actress Nicole Kidman, who at 5 feet 11 inches, admits that she often looks more powerful and intimidating than she actually is because of her height. But now she is totally at ease in flats and high heels.
