  1. well I believe it is anyway very difficult for parents to find the right way, to recognize whats right whats wrong... as somebody already wrote here- for some things you might forbid but the children would do it when you don´t see them... so doing it *controlled* might be more reasonable, it depends... generally, as already said, I agree and I think even teenager should not wear high heels.

  2. I've recently started wearing military boots which are very 'fashionable' apparently!

    What do you girls think?

    I like them and I get a lot of compliments from my hubby and some of his friends when I wear docs LOL

    Ugggg.

    Why?

    she was honest? :) :)

    still for me- if not high heels, especially in summer most likely barefeet.

    But as already said, I also like ranger type boots and also mukluks which are a little bit similar to uggs.

  3. a very sensitive topic...

    in my eyes: the later the better... Some trials for sure do not harm, also learning to recognize what fits where is important but high heels are no healthy shoes, and it is not only about feet but about the whole body.

    if they like high heels in their adult age at 18 and decide to wear them it still will be very fast to learn walking reasonable heights easily but the attitude will be ...well *adult* and their feet healthier for the whole life to come...

    .... My wife however, has a professional background in medicine and is cognizant of the effects that wearing high heels at a very young age can have on their development....

    would you mind writing more?

    I guess her opinion might be the most *basical* here...

  4. thank you alot :) well those shoes are just so... classy! and this at that heels height! here some new fast snapshots, another style, but well those shoes are just so beautiful, no matter what outfit :)

  5. oh, and I have to confess there is something I like about those boots. I believe more and more Lagerfeld is a genius as to fashion. may be another interpretation, may be just some other features of it- but I am pretty sure it will be a new trend and alot of people will like it. And there is something I like about that turban too. I am too much into fairytales maybe:).

  6. especially when having a highheel fetish, one easily would tend to believe *the higher the better* but this does not function in fact. when high heels get too high (mostly the break is at appr. 5-5,5 inches), the legs get less (!) beautiful, the aesthetic effect of highheel goes lost. I guess it is because muscles have work too much and too unnatural to keep the unergonomic position of joints. the most who are into extreme highheels probably usually do not notice because getting too excited looking at the height of the heels only :smile:. but also actually oxfords aren´t that flattering to feet & legs either...

  7. *accepting* does not mean forcing one to change ones mind. first step is beeing honest about a crucial point, you were. the second is: in a partnership other things count, not high heels. the third is: those who like heels (it does not depend on gender) always will and this does not change. so do not make the mistake to refuse, to deny this part of yours because of her, it would not function well for long (reversed as well, though we can get used to nearly anything- if you force her to share your feminine side while she does not like it, it can destroy a lot- also love and trust). so the actual point only will be to find compromises. and this is where both have to be willing to find a solution. also, it is always a steady work and development. so the start might also be: YOU accept she does not like. (and yes, she has been honest to you too, she is right: most likely her not liking you in women´s clothes won´t ever change). you don´t want her telling you she likes things she don´t, do you? so what about letting this be a part of you you do not share with her? one does not have to share EVERYTHING in a partnership. Of course it would be fair now from your fiancee to accept you will most likely share this with other people - nowadays it is easier than it was before, how lucky we are!- respectively to find ways how this will be ok for your both. Once again it won´t be a smooth way but actually finding compromises in crucial differences never are. So you both can train before you marry :smile: .

  8. my opinion: at least till size US 9 it is no 6 inches, more likely 5,5 inches. don´t know about larger sizes. very nice stable heel; the straps are quite hard, no smooth inner sole, which will make the feet slip after a short walk- previous pleaser sandals resp. their platform heels have a very good suede inner sole making long term walking more convenient. but of course an additional sole might be glued in by oneself. I cut the ankle straps off and it become a beautiful mule- anyway the shoe in whole is very nice at that price and well walkable.

  9. it is not a quality issue, once again, nobody doubts qualifetish are quality shoes. also not an age issue, just making reasonings and having a particular experience. wobbly seems for me the best fitting term till now. but once again, it is not a cobbler issue nor a question of quality itself. even nowadays shoemakers seem to struggle with the development of high heels if the heel is over 5,5 inch and without platform as the last ease the enourmous pressure of a walked extreme high heel again. And I think all of those who have WALKED (usually some 500 m or less are enough to recognize) different shoes with a heels height at 6 inch or higher will agree. but since 1990ties the quality and development of materials seem to have been amazing. in reverse: extreme high heels from before hardly achieved this. LSB did but the heel was thick as you will remember. so, my opinion is, devious has done here good work and their balletheels are great walkable - as well as those of lsb are. for the reason above I do not know if this can be stated about qualifetish or ablemans, especially as some other quality balletheels do not achieve this good walkability even if the heel is lower than at devious/kassiopeya/qualifetish. once again, it is neither a quality issue nor a statement of general quality. What you quoted about qualifetish is about their handicraft quality again (e. g. devious are in reverse well known for their bad eyelet fastening) but a little note what you for sure did notice too: if an extreme shoe after 10 years looks like new it hardly has been walked. So once again just read exactly what people say, it does not seem to me a statement about walkability of the shoe. the best way might be to ask direct questions. but not to make own interpretations on a sensitive topic if not enough information is given. My statements here come because so many seem to write (and sorry, I have to count you to these too) about shoes what they never have seen/worn/walked in real, something what they have heard but here also without any clear and traceable statements but then making own interpretations e.g. including walkability inspite of there even haven´t been any statements about that in those notes they have read. So I did not say it is wrong what you wrote! But we cannot also say it is quite for sure true! So once again, to clear some myths what about a) giving first hand information only. :smile: for second hand interpretation: less own interpretations more asking directly and as much details on the interesting questions as possible. the point is ASKING if something is not clear, anywhere where it is possible, and not just making assumptions. We have the possibilities of easy videofilming today, which might help to clean up too. if anybody wants to show something relevant but not possessing camera, there will for SURE be somebody living in the same country who would help. I mean if one really wants to clear up all these things, where else if not here at high heels place where such an exchange of information is possible? Of course one should be as honest to oneself then to recognize if one WANTS to know and share the knowladge of that - or may be it is actually about reading exciting balletheel training /balletheel wonder stories and phantasies for one? which is nothing bad either, but may be the *story* area here in the forum would be more suitable then? thehighheelsgirl: would you give some statements to the following please, if you dont mind (eventually over pm; for me it is about a possibility to make some general statements only- I promise to treat it absolutely discrete except you explicitely don´t mind me mention something in public.) how many balletheels do you possess? for how long? resp. for how long a pair of balletheels do you wear? and how much of that time you WALK them? do you use anything to protect your feet and if yes, what? do you see a difference between shoes of qualifetish depending on either a pair have been walked more? eventually any modifications of balletheels? reinforcing of the heel? what is the surface you walk your balletheels most? (home, even street, uneven streets/stones, sand, grass?) you said devious was not comparable to qualifetish. where were those differences in particular? for how long did you wear devious balletheels? would you compare lsb ballets you walked to qualifetish please? about the walkability- was the difference the height only or something additionly? what about comfort for the feet? are there some other brands you have tested and you might make a statement of? Thank you.

  10. well it is not that much about stability I think .. on the one hand I guess when pregnant she would feel better on 10 cm (difference) even if usually wearing 12 cm and second is women feel thick when pregnant. so an extreme platform stretches the proportions - I can imagine it is a point as for her optics resp. weight issues seem very important.

  11. is it important either men´s women´s children´s teenagers´, what ever? it is quite difficult to find well fitting jeans one also likes. so these two are the only points which count.

  12. yes, garden railway :smile:))))) may be there will be something I can show in a week or two. @Andi: thank you:) I definitely want to visit UK & Ireland one day. till now I only have been for 4 times in airports for some 2-6 hours when waiting for the next airplane, which made even more clear for me I want to take time to visit your beautiful country. It made also clear language will be problem for me :D While writing/reading it is quite easily I hardly understand anything if something not spoken exactly like anchors on TV :wave:. And not to forget my awful accent as well! :()).

  13. hm, I understand it might seem so but I would not be that harsh.

    you see first, as already said, first price tags at garments are visible for one. also cutting off price tags at clothes does not hurt and is easily done without destroying the garment (or fingernails LOL).

    second for the most women shoes are just.. well shoes, nothing more! they do not treat them like an object of love looking at it from all sides. If a sticker is clearly visible you can be sure at 99,99 % she simply did not notice or forget because it is just shoewear.

    still for every woman it would be embarassing to recognize she is wearing heels with clearly visible price (%) stickers. so eventually telling the lady it is visible is nicer and imo more appropriate than jugding her lazy and scruffy because of that...

  14. I´d prefer beeing right at the front in the engine:). I was allowed to stay right ahead in a steam loco while driving some years ago, it was great! Since I have the crazy idea of pictures of me (or who ever) shoveling coals while loco driving, huffing and puffing, me all black from the coal dust, like the man there was, and you can imagine the shoes I´d wear -prefered a bright colour getting more and more black, yeah. we all have our dreams, right :smile:.

  15. I believe women see shoes very often from a little bit different angle than men do:) especially when worn you don´t see the soles of your own shoes so you would forget it even more. but that´s true, especially if colourful it looks awful LOL. But as already said I would more likely notice a sticker at shoes of other wearers, not at mine:). ... especially sensible to this issue since I tried to remove the sticker from a very fine shoe some years ago and it was so adhesive that the coloured sole get damaged... it is said it can be removed well also with hair dryer or solvent liquids but I don´t have no patience for that.

  16. Am I the only one then who thought Victoria's shoes to be gross? Take 2" off those huge clumpy platforms, taper the toe and you might have a shoe that is both elegant and wearable.

    well don´t forget she is pregnant. so adding platform eventually is a good compromise for her to feel less ... well what ever women might feel when they are pregnant :smile::D.

    but also a point is the more often you see such platforms the more you get used to them... though I think everybody would agree less platform would look more elegantly.

    I just can't get over the massive overload on the ridiculous hats at the royal shindig, oh my....

    I love hats too but I have to agree, some of them looked more than funny :wave:... and if I would think a hat to be meant to flatter a persons optic or to perfect an outfit, then I really don´t know what those very ehm special hats were created for.
