Did anyone happen to catch "the View" today. Not that I regularly watch it but I happened to be flipping through. During their "hot topics" segment they mentioned that "H and M" is now featuring skirts for men. They then had 3 male staff members come out and model them. They definitely looked different but they didn't look half bad either in my eyes. They proceeded to ask the men how many would actually wear them day to day and 1 guy raised his hand out of the 3. Then later designer Vera Wang was out as a guest and she mentioned that she doesn't see the male skirt trend catching on. There are apparently clips available on the internet but most of the sites I tried were blocked for Canadians like me.

Well done Jeff! I think it is good that you wore pants with those boots. A pair like those definitely need to be the main attraction as you stated. When you wear boots like that I think it is best to tone down the rest of the outfit and keep it to a minimum. And you did that. Again, well done.

Wow! Those are the definition of "thigh highs"...lol

I think everyone misread the original question. I was asking about the commonness of high heeled "shoes" in the winter and not high heeled "boots". I'm talking about stilettos, sandals, etc. Basically any summertime footwear when it comes to heels.

Guess what? I bought two more pair of jeans! These will likely be the last two for a while, unless of course I come across something pretty amazing at a pretty amazing price. These two pair I bought at Ann Taylor Loft. They are having a pretty huge sale right now. Both pair are their "Slim Fit" jeans. One pair, the black were $20 with another 25% off and the other, in gray were $15 with $25 off. So for less than $30, I got two great pair of jeans.
One of the challenges to building a wardrobe of women's jeans is that they come in so many different styles. I have a plethora of bootcut jeans, a few pair of flares and a couple pair of straight legs. However I am now up to five pair of the slim fit or "skinny" jeans, and adding a gray and black pair to my dark rinse and white really gives me some nice wardrobe options.
Very nice pants Happy. They look really good on you. I am more interested in the wine colored heels though. Please tell us more about them. Brand, height etc.

I know that women wear boots with heels in the winter. I was wondering how common it is for women to wear high heel shoes in the winter? Around here it doesn't seem to be too common at all. But to my suprise today I saw 2 sightings withing an hour of each other. First sighting was as I was leaving the mall. I saw a younger women wearing a nice pair of tan colored tweed peep toe heels. Immediately after I headed to the bank to use the ATM. As I was using the machine I could hear the unmistakable sound of heels behind me heading to other machine. There is 2 ATM's. I figured it was some kind of heeled boots. As I was finished I could tell that she was almost done as well so I slowed down just a bit. Checked my statement, checked my pockets, grabbed my keys etc. Sure enough she was exiting right behind me. I held the door for her as she left. She was younger and quite a looker from what I briefly saw. Then I got a look at her feet. Too my suprise she was not wearing boots. She was wearing a nice pair of black patent pointy toe stiletto pumps. At least that's the impression I got from what I could see under her pant legs. As she was walking out I spoke up and said "aren't your feet cold in those?" She said "It takes alot of practice." I wanted to say "I know exactly what you mean.", but I didn't. Then I said "they look nice anyhow" and we went on our way. So how common is it elsewhere? And does anyone else have stories they would like to share.

Just ordered these heels today: http://www.aldoshoes.com/us/sale/women/pumps/72112749-waxler/22
They are the "Waxler" pump with a concealed platform by Aldo in the black leather, I cant wait to receive them! Has anyone else bought this shoe?
I have not bought them but they look great none the less.
-
Well done Happy! While I can't say I particularly like any one complete outfit. There are definitely bits and pieces of every outfit that I love. Especially the wine colored shoes in #2.
-
Glad you had a good experience. Both pairs of heels look great.
-
Yeah I don't understand it either. You'll see some women wearing these skin tight dresses, then they have (in my opinion) these big, clunky platform pumps on (not that some platforms shoes don't look good, but I don't think heels do). Could it be that "size matters" for women, and they want to wear 5"+ heels, and they best way for them to do it is with shoes that have 1" platforms?
I agree. Some platforms do look good but more often than not a stilletto will win every time. For me anyway. And maybe you are on to something with the "size matters" thing for women. But for me a women wearing platforms is almost like cheating.
Seeing a women wearing platforms is like finding out Mickey Mantle corked his bat.....lol. Just had to throw a little Seinfeld humor in there.

What is with all the platforms these days? Don't women wear plain old stillettos anymore.
-
I take pictures like this all the time but not with my crappy cell phone. I want quality!
How do you manage to get such close up shots without getting "caught" so to speak?
-
Not really a platform fan. Give me a classic stilletto anyday.
-
they all look good Happy but 1 and 3 stood out for me.
-
And the winner is......number 3! Boots, jeans, the whole outfit works for me.
-
Just got these in today, Style & Co. leather sandals. And for the purists, no, I would NEVER wear them with rolled up jeans!!! I had the jeans on under boots.
Those sandals look great. They appear not to be the highest heel but that's makes them more appealing for everyday outings in the summer. Just running daily errands or shopping etc.
Please supply more info on them. Price, heel height, comfort level etc.

Kate Beckinsale In Hot Boots
[ATTACH]8112[/ATTACH]
She looks good in just about anything she wears. Not crazy about the pants but the rest of the outfit including the boots is hot hot hot!
-
Kate Beckinsale definitely deserves the title of sexiest women alive. She looks good in almost anything. Or in this case almost nothing...lol Oh, and the shoes are great too.
-
All the pics look great. As much as I like the skirts I am a jeans guy. So it is definitely pic #1 for me.
-
Not bad at all. And she plays a mean sax too.....lol
-
Those shoes are sooooooo hot! They are a classic "super high" heel without a platform. Which for me has so much more sex appeal than a platform shoe.

Men in skirts on the View

That is the same impression that I got. The ladies definitely didn't seem the least bit interested or amused. And the outfits were definitely not well put together.
But at least the trend got some mainstream media attention. Whether it was good or bad.
