Actually in looking more closely at the purple pumps, I believe they are actually purple snakeskin not croc.
Yes on closer examinaton the shoes are more snakeskin than crocodile - well spotted.
Thanks everyone for your comments for and against i realise that not everyone has the same likes and dislikes when it comes to shoes or anything else in life come to mention it.
More pics coming very soon.

Thanks for everyones comments so far - its much appreciated.

Here are my latest shoes bought on Ebay:
Denim Ankle boots from Fredericks of Hollywood - 5in Heel
Purple Crocodile Pumps - Unknown make bought of Ebay for £17.00 - 4.5in Heel
Green Suede Pumps - These are Vintage Fredericks of Hollywood Shoes, before they had shoes made in the Far East, these were made in Spain and have Leather Suede and Real Leather Soles - 5 inch heel.
Leopard Print Ankle Strap Shoes with metal heel, The Highest Heel Collection - 4.5 inch heel, these are my favorite and I intend getting at least 2 other pairs in Red and Black.

and what about divina tonight....
very nice
Too right!! high heel slingbacks - must be in the 4.5 to 5in heel range and a bikini - must be the best on BB yet
-
Dawn - Yes the 6" Oxfords are very cool too - unfortunately 5 inch heels are about as high as i can handle, I am well looking forward for them to arrive as I have wanted a pair of Oxfords for as long as I can remember. I believe Trolldeg has a very nice pair (and wears them very well to) - Leatherworks I think, when i have a bit more money i may well get a pair of those too, and progress the heel height to 5 1/2 inches.

Nice Job Skirted UK
Glad I was able to help, lets hope they turn out to be what you want.
Pleaser seem to have quite a few wider width upto 16 shoes this season for the guys.
I have these beauties coming from the US that I won.
that are made by Pleaser - made from real leather for a bargain £24.89 plus shipping, a similar pair in the UK are nearer £70 - 80 (Leatherworks - admittedly hand made). They go up to a 16 wide, but i only need a 13.Hope you are able to find the 420H's

Nice boots!! What model are they , heel height and size.

Jeff
I am thinking of getting a pair of these shoes, http://sole2heel.com/ss03_Pump_2.html
If I can convince the company that there is life on the other side of the Atlantic!
What is the quality of the shoes like, and is the company good to deal with?
Skirted I think this may be useful to you.
www.funkypair.com will sell internationally, they have a store on ebay - "Funky Pair"
(http://stores.ebay.com/FUNKY-PAIR_W0QQssPageNameZVIStoreHeaderLinksQQtZkm?) and do all the latest Pleaser Seduce Range, there are lots of models in the up to the size 16 mens fit range but couldnt see the style "420H" you require, but you can contact them to see if they do that model in the extra larger sizes. They have the 420h's on their website for $26.99 but these are medium width upto size 14. Funky pair will ship the shoes for $19.99 to UK
I am going for the brown seduce 420's for $42.99 - more expensive as theses are leather rather than manmade PU
Hope this helps!

With the advent of DVD's lots of deleted scenes are found as Extras. I dont know if any of the films you were in were big, but there may be a slight chance if they were out on DVD that your scenes maybe restored as extras.....its a possibility!

Has Peachy got plans for a web site of her shop? The exposure would help people like myself who live far from Bristol to see what she is selling and possibly be prospective customers. Fair play to her for thinking of us male heelers.

Found the picture at this site its still hard to see - quite an interesting article about it too.

If I recall - i read somewhere that the Dutch as a nation are one of the tallest in the world.

Kim Jong-il - The North Korean Dictator wears 4-5 inch platforms according to this Reuters story from 25th May I wonder if the picture mentioned is on the net somewhere?

Dear Leader stands tall in platform shoes
SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korea's Kim Jong-il has grown in stature, thanks to a pair of platform shoes that increased the Dear Leader's height by about five inches, a leading South Korean daily reported Wednesday.
The Dong-a Ilbo published a recently obtained photograph of a smiling Kim that shows him wearing a pair of platform shoes with heels about 4-5 inches high.
Kim's actual height is a tightly guarded secret and Pyongyang seldom releases photographs that show his shoes. Kim is estimated to stand between five and five and one-half feet tall in his stockinged feet.
The photo published Wednesday was taken in 2002 during a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. A North Korea analyst said that Kim liked to boost his height with platform shoes during his rare meetings with world leaders.
"Platform shoes are an essential item for Kim Jong-il who fears being ignored when he meets outside leaders and Westerners," said Sohn Kwang-joo, chief editor of the Daily NK, a Web site that follows North Korean news.
"What would North Koreans think if their leader was such a short man? That's why Kim feels he deserves to wear platform shoes, even if they kill his ankles," he said

I've found an interesting blog site dedicated to shoes:
Lots of interesting news type shoe related items on there - mainly on designer shoes, there is some mindless drivel but worth a look.

If anyone is interested, I found this website from a guy that "collects" game show episodes. Maybe you can convince him to do a still or a video clip of him wearing heels.

Barney, great shoe! Wear it with joy.
Rainbow
Thanks Rainbow
They are a bit flash but I like them - cost me $70 plus shipping so I'll be cutting down on the shoe buying for a little while.
-
Jeff,
Bought these recently- they have a bit of pink in them.
Might be a bit to lairy for everyday wear though also would like a more conventional heel than the ornate one on these.
J Renee size 13W US - so would fit you, would these be you style?

I am going to ask the mods for my own thread on the pictures forum - I had one for a week then we got hacked :x

Welcome back, Jeff and Barney.
Housepainter (the former Rainbow: computer wouldn't let me in otherwise)
Nice to see you too Rainbow and welcome back to all the other forum regs too
- boy i've missed this place!!Got to re-upload all my images again as they were lost when the site got hacked, ironic really as i only learned to do that a week or two before the site went down -doh!!!
BTW is your new nickname also your profession too?

Hello JeffB,
If i remember correctly you won several pairs of Renetti pumps amongst your winning bids. Can you tell me if you think that their fit is good.
I ask as the description says that they are manufactured with the male foot in mind and should be a generous fit.
I bought my usual size (13US) - Royal Blue Pump See pic below), and although they fit OK they are no where as near as generous fitting as the description suggests. Also I was slightly disappointed in the finish of the shoe, there was a fair bit of creasing on the vamp, the leather appeared to be good quality though. What were your opinions please, I seem to recall that you are 13W and assume you bought the 14's.
Looking forward to seeing your pictures of the new shoes soon - I will be posting pictures of some of my own purchases of Ebay shortly once they arrive as I have bought some quality American branded shoes recently - J Renee, Moda Pella etc
Cheers,
Barney15c

Since our regular picture host on the forum has gone, im looking for a new free hoster preferable based in UK so I can post pics on the board. Can anyone suggest a reliable one. I know google is doing one but apart from board members I am not too keen for anyone else to view them. Cheers. Moderator - couldnt post this on the appropriate forum as it said "Only moderators could post new topics" when I tried it on the pictures forum - please move to correct forum if appropriate.
that are made by Pleaser - made from real leather for a bargain £24.89 plus shipping, a similar pair in the UK are nearer £70 - 80 (Leatherworks - admittedly hand made). They go up to a 16 wide, but i only need a 13.

Also you had to be quick to see it but at the very beginning before the titles on E4Dermot on BBLB did a skit on Davina's Bikini appearance by wearing one himself and more importantly it looked like he was wearing a pair of high heel mules (I have heard he has a thing for heels) anyone else in the UK catch it?
