WATCH: Today Show Reveals The Secret To Pain-Free High Heels

During a segment this morning on quick fixes to household troubles — which included how to keep your jewelry untangled and your champagne bubbly — a guest expert on the Today Show offered a surprising tidbit which she claimed she learned “from a supermodel” and made wearing high heels completely “painless.”

Apparently, if you tape your third and fourth toes together, you’re aligning some foot muscle which allows “the ball of your foot to be much more steady.”

I couldn’t find any evidence of this miracle cure on Google, but as someone who can barely hobble from the door to a taxi in anything over two inches, I’m incredibly hopeful.

Luckily, I just bought a new pair of heels yesterday — for a wedding, of course — and I’ll give this trick a test run around the office today.
