Hello Nikki!

Not so sure about other women but men seem to pay me much more attention when I'm wearing heels, even if I'm otherwise dressed down. I've had one or two pay very close attention to my heels when in Sainsburys! I think with other women it's more subtle, not what you're wearing but how you wear it and whether they feel it's threatening.

I spent twelve hours at a wedding last year (not mine!) in six inch Carvela heels, not so easy on grass after far too much wine. But it was worth it!

I do wear girdles and pantygirdles, I find they make me feel more fully 'dressed'. I have tried wearing corsets a few times but I couldn't put up with wearing one all day. Perhaps I was lacing too tight or it was too small for me. I did feel as if I'd bruised a rib on one occasion which rather put me off!

I love bright colours- just not red! I like baby pink and nude colours. I especially like greens and yellows too. You could paint your soles with floor paint, that might last a while- perhaps they could be dayglow or reflective.....maybe not! You might attract the wrong kind of attention!

I wouldn't wear any red soled shoes, Louboutin or otherwise, red just ain't my colour! I can think of only two things in my wardrobe which are red, one bra and a punky T shirt!

Grizzly or Polar?

They do that because they are silk not modern nylon!

Hello, I'm Kathy, I'm 39 and I love shoes, esp heels! I'm new to this site and I'm rubbish at computers so bear with me!
