Salma Hayek loves to wear sky-high heels, but the sexy Latina needs to be more careful!

While promoting Puss In Boots in Paris with co-star Antonio Banderas, Ms. Hayek tripped on her way out of the George V hotel ... and nearly ate it! Daughter Valentina, who was holding mom's hand, was also almost pulled to the ground. Whew ... that could have been nasty!

Salma's hubby Francois-Henri Pinault did not attend the screening with his stunning 45-year-old wife. She could have used his arm to hold on to.

Despite the awkward step, Salma was able to keep it together.
