Platform Pick
Beyonce may not be a single lady, but she still knows how to dress to get attention. These 6" Cesare Paciotti Triple Platform heels make their mark on the red carpet. Not that Beyonce's famously curvy 5'7" frame needs much help getting noticed!

Pretty Young Thing
Once again, Blake Lively gives us something to talk about. The glamorous "Gossip Girl" star looks heavenly at the 2009 Angel Ball in Christian Louboutin's Calypso heels, created in exotic ostrich and velvet with Swarovski crystals. The sleek stiletto adds 6" to her 5'10" height, keeping her heads above the paparazzi.

Tough Love
With an upcoming album in the works, Ciara takes a break from her busy schedule to snack at The Ivy in West Hollywood. Not one for jeans and a t-shirt, the 5'8" singer steps out in a micro mini and tee and 5" Steve Madden lace-up platform heels.

Strap Happy
5'5" Demi Moore breaks a White Party rule in some silvery 6" Jimmy Choo Frost platform sandals. The mirrored leather platform means she can bask in her reflection -- and when you look as good as she does, why wouldn't you?

Get the Skinny
Most stars try to stay skinny; these days, so do their heels. Diane Kruger hits the Venice Film Festival in YSL's Divine stilettos, which boost her 5'7" heigh another 4 inches. We give Kruger credit for managing to stay upright on the super-skinny heels!

Booty Call
Whether they hit the ankle, calf, knee or thigh, a great pair of boots gives stars a leg up on the competition. Jennifer Lopez exudes hotness in 5" knee high boots from Hervé Léger by Max Azria. Hopefully, the 5'6" star doesn't wear them while trying to balance the twins!

Bejeweled
Jessica Simpson wore these jeweled 4-1/2" Dereck shoes from her namesake collection to a recent event in New York City. The petite 5'3-1/2" star almost always wears heels to add height to her tiny frame.
