My point was the different mindset. I just mean, you don't have to look drab to look like a man. And that there's nothing inherently female about high heels.

To bump this thread I found a nice blog from a french girl living in New York.

She seems to appreciate cute guys, even with heels on. And the number of comments is impressive.

It should have been posted elsewhere but I can't find it (2008).

I think the photos rather prove my point. I still wish young men wouldn't do that stubble thing though.

Thank you, jerbare. I hadn't spotted it. I might update it according where I wish I was at any given moment, that way I might avoid ever achieving anything else. Ooh, if we could get enough people we could pick teams and play High Heel Risk.

Hello and welcome to HHPlace BB16. Pardon my curiosity but how is it you can read English but find it difficult to write. It seems to me the two should go hand in hand..

It is generally easier to read than to write. I can struggle through a newpaper article in Italian, but I wouldn't know where to begin writing it.

Hello Bb16, I hope you enjoy it here.

As a teacher, one hometime I stood between two fathers who'd just started trading blows. The trick is to think like Piglet. '"Just the house for Owl. Don't you think so, little Piglet?" And then Piglet did a Noble Thing, and he did it in a sort of dream, while he was thinking of all the wonderful words Pooh had hummed about him. "Yes, it's just the house for Owl," he said grandly. "And I hope he'll be very happy in it." And then he gulped twice, because he had been very happy in it himself.'

So Mickey's Mars?

Your shoes should be darker than your hose, and your hose should complement your outfit...

And what shoes would you recommend with black tights?

Sorry, Dr Shoe, I hadn't noticed the date on your original post, but we obviously agree. The trouble is people think online isn't real life, but for many it is their life, apparently. You know the childish retort, 'Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me'? It might be more properly said, 'Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can break my heart'. I'd just always urge people to handle their words as carefully as they can. I know most do. I include the link to Orwell's essay for those who can be bothered.https://www.mtholyoke.edu/acad/intrel/orwell46.htm

Hi Sharon and Sangue, Sharon, what a lovely tale, you obviously enjoyed yourself. I love the care you put into thinking about your swimming outfit. You know how they used to have bathing machines back in the old days? We should campaign for something similar, a sort of fitting room on wheels on the beach, with a full length mirror so we could check we looked right before going down the steps into the water. I could do it if it was made sort of formal. I agree with Sangue, a floaty blouse would feel wonderfully floaty in the water and would feel completely different when you got out, all clingy. Sangue, my washing machine broke nearly two years ago and I've never been able to afford to replace it, so I do my laundry by putting it in the bath and treading up and down on it. I sometimes think it might be easier to wash my clothes by having a shower in them, but I don't always want a shower at the end of the day. I suppose I could put them back on in the morning and shower. Now, how would I go about laundering my bedding? Oh, I would most certainly jump straight in if I had a private pool, but I'd need to have goggles to stop me fretting about my contacts. Look forward to hearing from you both soon. Regards, Megan x

Et avec souliers et bas de couleurs opposes, ca me parait bien aussi. But there's beautiful hosiery these days that could pass as bare to all but the closest examination.
