A pair of limited-edition python-skin sandals by Nicholas Kirkwood have been kept under wraps - until now. I'm the first person to try them on, and they are stunning, with intricate mesh criss-crossing the ankles. They cost around £1,100.
As I start to walk in the 6in-plus heels, I feel unsteady, but Kirkwood advises: "Heel down first, then roll through the balls of your feet and spring off your toes." But it's no good; back into the box they go. It's time to find something a little safer. Here's my choice of on-trend heels - and you can walk in all of them.
