Women’s shoes can be the catalyst for a long and happy marriage. One type of women’s shoes in particular can be a big boon, the iconic and enduring high heel.

Victoria Beckham may have lost the Armani ads, yet it is doubtful she is going to lose her husband anytime soon. He always looks smitten with his wife, which is refreshing and endearing.

It seems she must be doing something right to keep her husband so attentive. So, let’s take a few tips from Ms. Beckham.

The High Heels

Now, you could be thinking, “I don’t wear high heels, I couldn’t walk in them or they are uncomfortable…” or any other number of things. Well, honey, whatever is running through your head about high heels, you can stop worrying. These women’s shoes are not going to be walked in—well not much anyway. These high heels won’t be ones you will be wearing to the office, either.

When was the last time you surprised your husband? When was the last time you practiced the art of a graceful seduction?

The List

· Find the high heels that make you feel the sexiest. It doesn’t matter if the high heel has a low heel or a sky high heel—just find the pair that make you feel good by looking at them.

· Choose simple under garments, perhaps a bra and panty, a teddy, a bustier and nylons…keep your choice sparing and elegant.

· Set up the lighting, lighting can be your friend. It can set the tone of the evening, help you to relax and be natural, and make your skin look like satin.

· Take action, when he comes in the door you are to be in the strategically lit space with your high heels on the elegantly simple under garments you chose for your marriage bonding adventure.

· You don’t have to say a word when he enters the room. He will see you lying in your sexy high heels and understand exactly what you think of him.

The Benefits

Aside from the joy of being with your husband and his joy with being your hero, there are numerous health benefits, too. About.com in their longevity department reports sex releases several hormones in the body, increases intimacy and bonding, and works against loneliness and depression. Sounds good so far, yes?

An article in The New York Times Health section, dated October 23, 2009, says happy couples have more sex, and the more sex a couple has, the happier they report being.

Well, the above statement makes good sense.

And, we haven’t even delved into ALL of the health benefits making love with your husband creates.

To the Health of Your Marriage

For instance, a study revealed Welshmen who had sex less than once a month were two times more likely to die of heart attacks as those who made love twice a week, reports a previous October issue of New Choices magazine. There is also another study done in the book Real Age stating frequent orgasms (about 100 per year) can increase life expectancy by three to eight years.

Marriages with a spouse living longer and healthier are bound to be happier. Well, now that you understand only a few of the bullet points on these shoes, imagine you are thinking about which great pair of high heels is going to aide you in bonding deeper with your husband!

Some Myths Exposed

. Champagne glasses were invented in the shape of Marie Antoinette’s Myth: Champagne glasses were made in the shape and fit of Marie Antoinette’s bosoms and were the standard for beautiful breasts. If a woman’s breast overflowed the champagne glass–it was considered waste…thus, the cup runneth over…breasts. They were invented long before Marie Antoinette was born. Per Snopes.com “Champagne was invented in the 17th century when a Benedictine monk discovered a way to trap bubbles of carbon dioxide in wine. As for the glass, it was designed and made in England especially for champagne around 1663, a chronology that rules out du Barry, du Pompadour, Josephine, and Marie Antoinette, all of whom were born long after the coupe came into existence.”

Marie Antoinette said, “Let them eat cake.”

Scholars believe Marie Antoinette did not say this and as a matter of fact, she was kind, and concerned about the people of the kingdom. She, apparently, was one of the few from the kingdom that volunteered and worked with those less fortunate.

There were pamphlets written up about Marie Antoinette that were not true and were put out for two reasons. One, to extort money from King Louis, he had to pay to have some pamphets destroyed. And, the others were put out in order to assist in the revolution. The pamphlets were filled with lies to damage the king and queens reputation.

Five Hot Tips on Red Carpet Chic

The new season of Mad Men begins with January Jones pregnant with her third child.

She looks far from her character and always puts her best foot forward with gorgeous high heels.

Gold is the replacement for beige and like red, there is a gold out there for every skin color. We’re sorry but the beige shoe on women is really uggg-ly. The beige shoe was supposed to minimize your foot, but it really didn’t—it just made it stick out more and usually doesn’t go with anything the women wear. At least on TV land!

The gold beaded mule is a great look and it goes with everything, from poolside to errands, to cocktail parties. So, take a tip from January Jones and add some gold to your wardrobe!

Add a few fashion tips from January Jone’s wardrobe book to yours:

1. Gold is a great neutral and adds sparkle to your day—like the sunshine.

2. The heel on this shoe is a medium height and with the small platform, thus making it flexible from day to evening.

3. This shoe has rubber on the bottom for a non-skid surface.

4. Look chic with the new gold instead of beige. Beige has a tendency to age, make teeth look yellow when close to the face and all skin looks more wrinkled next to some beiges—even on the feet.

5. Gold is still a neutral, yet with a lot more oomph, sparkle and warmth. In a hurry to run out the door but want to look your best?

Don your gold garb, a bit of lip gloss, some silky mascara and you will look red carpet chic.
