00:02Yes? No, no, no, no.
00:09Hi, it's Connie Wang, Global Editor of Finery29, and I am here today with Muse Andre J.
00:15Hello doll, how are you?
00:16I'm good, how are you?
00:17Fantastic.
00:18And he's here to show me how to walk in heels for a very special episode of Connie Cam.
00:23It's a little bit embarrassing working on a fashion website and not knowing exactly how to wear heels
00:28and not look embarrassing, but you promise that by the end of this, I'll be okay.
00:33Connie, don't worry, I got you. I got you.
00:36Cool, let's do it.
00:38So Andre, why the flats?
00:40Oh darling, the flats are to teach you how to balance yourself before I prepare you for these, honey.
00:47But actually, I must confess, Connie, this is not step one.
00:50Step one is the mental capacity for you to believe that you can actually do this.
00:56So now the affirmation that I created for you is,
00:59I believe in myself and I believe that I can accomplish all things with a positive outlook.
01:09I believe in myself and I believe that I can accomplish all things with a positive outlook.
01:16Now, step two.
01:18So now we're going to put on our flats and learn how to walk on the ball of our feet.
01:23Ready, Connie?
01:23Yeah, sounds easy.
01:24Let's do it!
01:27The purpose of me having you bring these shoes is for you to learn the balance.
01:32For you to stand on the ball of your feet and learn to control that form,
01:36because that's the form that you're going to walk in, in your heels.
01:39How does that feel?
01:40Not good.
01:41What's the problem?
01:41My feet are slipping out of my shoes. I'm just trying to take them off.
01:44Okay, take them off.
01:45And then after you take those off, because you've already created this positive affirmation,
01:49Silence!
01:49Let's make it happen.
01:51Good.
01:52Perfect.
01:53And on the count of three, we're going to walk forward.
01:55One, two, three, on the ball of your feet.
01:58Let's go.
01:59You have it all under control.
02:01Yes, this is amazing.
02:02Fantastic.
02:04Look at this.
02:04You don't even realize how amazing you're doing.
02:08I'm doing so good.
02:09Oh, darling, you're doing amazing.
02:10And now as we get here, we're going to turn around and then you're going to relax.
02:15Baby!
02:18Step one.
02:19Now we're going to step two.
02:22Connie, these are great.
02:23I tell you, you may not be able to walk in them, but you certainly know how to purchase
02:27them.
02:27I think this is a good first pair for you.
02:29So why don't you put them on for me so we can get you started?
02:31Because I mean, like, as a novice, these look like you're trying to kill me.
02:34But the good thing is they have the platform in the front.
02:35Now you're taller than me.
02:36How much taller I am.
02:37Exactly.
02:38Now you're taller than me.
02:39So now again, we're going to pull in.
02:40We're going to look forward.
02:42You have your heels on.
02:43And now I want you to walk for me.
02:47Yes.
02:47Relax your hands.
02:48Relax your shoulders.
02:51Yes.
02:52Yes.
02:53Yes, Connie.
02:55Perfect.
02:55Perfect.
02:56Perfect.
02:56Perfect.
02:57Perfect.
02:59Yes.
03:00All things are possible.
03:02Yes.
03:03Should we move on to the last one?
03:04Let's move on to the last.
03:05Connie, these are great also.
03:08And they match your skirt perfectly.
03:09I know.
03:09I didn't even plan it.
03:10Well, darling, here it is.
03:12Put these on.
03:13Now you're going to go on a completely different journey with these.
03:17How does it feel?
03:18Uh, terrible.
03:19I'm sorry.
03:20I'll ask you that question again.
03:21How does it feel from an optimistic perspective?
03:25Full of possibility.
03:26Yes.
03:27That's what I'm going for.
03:28That's what I'm going for.
03:30Because now you want to fly.
03:31You're going to elevate yourself.
03:33You're going to pull that posture in.
03:35Yes, you're going to look forward.
03:37How are those legs?
03:38Perfect.
03:39Go there.
03:40Yes.
03:41Proceed.
03:43Connie, you're actually walking in heels.
03:47Connie, you're walking in heels.
03:49I'll wait until you come back and I'll get really excited.
03:52Connie, you're walking in heels.
03:53Connie, you're walking in heels.
03:56Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce you to Connie.
04:00Yay!
04:03It's all about the motivation and the inspiration.
04:06It's all about the encouragement, darling.
04:08Yes.
04:08So there you have it.
04:09I can walk in heels now.
04:11Yes.
04:12And you can too.
04:13All it takes is some positive thinking,
04:14and it doesn't hurt if you have Andre J on your side.
04:17Can we special deliver you to all of our readers out there?
04:20Oh, so I'm with you in spirit anyway.
04:22Exactly.
