  1. Today
  2. Wasn’t there a female country singer named “Kitty Wells” that was popular back around the late 1960’s? Perhaps you retrieved a name from really deep in your memory that you might have heard and forgotten.
  3. Yesterday

    The Journee Collection 'Women's Samara Peep Toe Booties' can in last week but I was too busy to try them on. Yesterday I took them out to try them on and the back zipper would not go down, so I couldn't even try them on. I also thought they looked a little cheap. So back they went. I have another pair coming later this week too. Hopefully those will work.
  5. If your church is anything like mine, appearing at a service tastefully dressed will win every time. I appreciate your posting pictures of what you wear each week. Makes me wonder though if any of the women showing up are wearing higher heels. I really like the pair you are wearing in this picture.
  6. It's a name I made up. I'm sure there is somebody out there called that, but I don't know her.
  7. Yesterday's church OOTW. Less than special, but you can't hit a home run every time at bat. Besides, I'm kind of tired of winning.
  8. Last week
  9. Sounds like a great result from the meeting! As a boot wearer I never suffer from those problems with boot cut jeans - I can well imagine it would be irritating
  10. Here is what I wound up doing--I wore jeans (the same ones pictured below), a turtleneck shirt, as it is still not warm, and was very windy yesterday, and my white Nike cheer shoes, which are stylized trainers. To my mind, the cheer shoes are pretty girly, but for some reason they are enthusiastically endorsed by my wife. I even took them to Vietnam, where they didn't raise a single eyebrow. My reasoning was that my job was to drive the car, find the place, smile and nod a lot, and we wouldn't be doing any walking, so what is the point of wearing heels? This woman had a very nice restaurant in a working class neighborhood, and has all of the licenses necessary to sell street food as they plan to do together. They must have really liked each other because they talked for an hour on the phone after we had been back home a while. I can't really understand the Vietnamese language, but I can understand the tone. My wife hasn't been this happy in a long time. I hope it lasts. In other news, I am trying out my wide(ish) legged jeans again. I understand that they're back in style. Also, I found this lightweight coat that I'd forgotten about. I don't really like either of them, but they got the thumbs up from my Twin Cities fashionista friend. I reckon that's good enough for me. The only problem I see is that I'm remembering one of the things I don't like about bootcut jeans, and haven't missed at all for several years--if you wear mules, as I am wont to do, the hem of the pants often gets caught between the bottom of your foot and the top of the shoe. I hate that. This is not a problem with other styles of shoes, so perhaps giving my pumps some more love is in order.
  11. I agree with @Bubba136 I think he’s given some very sound advice
  12. Don't complicate it too much. I apologize if I am wrong. The food business is your wife's business. My guess is this meeting is for her. If she's really fine with it then so be it.
  13. I’ve always heard that a good appearance is key to making a positive first impression which is desirable If you are eager to convince this prospective business partner that you and your wife are worthy of joining together in what you believe would be a worthwhile endeavor. I would suggest you show up nicely dressed sans high heels. That doesn’t mean you should wear your men’s shoes. I am thinking along the lines of you wearing a women’s styles that that can be worn be either sex. A nice pair of black or brown penny loafers with two inch heels, for example so you appear properly attired while wearing something that only you are aware is feminine. I believe I have mentioned before that I prefer to wear women’s shoes exclusively. While wearing heels is highly desirable there are occasions when heels worn by a man would not be socially appropriate. Hence styles more fitting to the occasion, which I frequently practice. Besides high heels, my collection includes loafers, ankle boots and sandals and various other styles with lower heels that are never questioned when ever I wear them. just a suggestion!
  14. You must have looked “astonishing!”
  15. @bluejay look at Pink Abalone Gel by Nobility.
  16. Yesterday I went to my nail salon to get my St. Patrick's Day mani. I got my usual pink/clear gel on my hands. On my left pinkie I got a white base with a rainbow coming out of a pot of gold. The right pinkie also got a white base with a green shamrock on it. Very colorful, I liked it a lot. Got a few compliments at the nail salon from other customers also getting St. Patrick's Day mani's, some got some art deco on all their fingers. It was nice to compare all our mani's. Incidentally, I wore black leggings with green shamrocks on them, a green fleece top, with a white puffy down vest on top. For my foot wear I chose my green patent, chunky heel, booties with 4" chunky heels. Happy Heeling, bluejay
  17. I am going with my wife to meet up with a possible business partner in the food business. I have a huge decision to make. Actually, it's not huge, but I like being dramatic sometimes. Do I wear heels or not? Wifey says she doesn't care, but you can't always take her at her word.
  18. I am doing my best to be humorous here. I really am. If I were to make a video of what I am about to say, it would be more lighthearted than it comes off in print. You may as well look for clarification about why Katie Wells wouldn't go with you to the junior prom.
  19. Yes it is. But just looking for clarification as to what is against the site rules. seems to me many have broke some.
  20. Oh, I wouldn't bother much worrying about it. I think you intrinsically know what is appropriate, and what is inappropriate. Life is full of ambiguity, is it not?
  21. I work construction, so obviously I can't wear heels at work, nor would I want to. I have occasionally seen coworkers and bosses outside of work. Some are surprised, some are not. It's never seemed to cause any bad consequences for my career. My wife used to be famous for her heels. She wore them pretty much every day. In the last few years, she has developed knee/ankle problems. Let's put it this way--I can and do walk faster in very high heels than she can in flats. I don't believe she has any cute shoes left anymore. Crocs and Sketchers it is, these days. And that's ok, it just doesn't matter to me anymore.
  22. As a freelance I have the good fortune to work from home and so can wear what I please. My wife, who does not wear heels, neither approves nor strongly disapproves - she seems to consider it a reasonably excusable foible on my part. I do not wear heels out on assignment, mainly because the remote places I tend to go they'd be utterly inappropriate, if not dangerous, footwear. Also in the past year I've been living off-grid in circumstances where heels would be almost comically inappropriate footwear whether you were man or woman. But when I am put and about I do wear lower heeled knee boots (with sturdy soles) just about everywhere. And when I'm at my desk, in my home office, heels are definitely part of my office dress code!
  23. It's inspiring to see how far you pushed it, for sure. Due to my position at work I still find it challenging to wear heels anywhere near as often as I'd like to, but I think that's more on me than her. (Despite all the D&I statements we make, I'd be concerned about the real world professional consequences. We're pushing the boundaries a little bit when we're going places around town where the risk is lower to run into employees, but I don't know how it would actually pan out if I / we did.) At least these days we're traveling a fair bit, so when ever we're out of town we are able to make use of our many mostly matching pairs and enjoy them together instead of me watching her. Remind me, does your wife wear any - elevated or not - footwear you can appreciate, or do you need to compensate for both of you at all times in that department?
  24. You're doing fine now. I know I could certainly lift my game - indeed wearing heels has helped with that.
  25. Just for clarification. I am a guest here and will always try my best to follow the rules. Very confused at the moment. After reading (TECH) post regarding rules, and no CD/Tv post, i see many post of men dressed in skirts and dresses, hose and heels. How is this not against the rules? Not calling anyone out, just need clarification?
