Totally agree with Shyheels. Can't add too much other than I hate it when my pants leg hangs up too. Not because how it looks, actually love look, but it's uncomfortable. Even more so with slings when the hem gets between your foot and shoe. Also heels are made to be seen, as such I buy pants shorter than I used to. Guess I did have something to add. Shyheels just saved me half my typing.

I do like your documentations but also understand. I haven't posted any of the topics I thought I would in a while like heels at work etc. I hate to say it but think this forum is dying on the vine.

That's how my work heels are used. Can't enter the factory proper but office use is common for me. Still I'm the only one.

Not even you? Or were you the only one in heels, usually the case for me.

Totally agree, platform thickness makes all the difference. At under 1 inch it doesn't matter too much. I mostly wear single soled heels but have several thinner plats. I just think thick platforms look bad, clownish in many cases.

Not really surprised. Way too much stress on the goofy thong. Be done with them. Stick to true mules and sandals. Really like these and the boot may support the foot sufficiently to unload the thong. Where in the world did you find this boot?

Based on Mel's answers above. 1 - me either 2 - pretty much same response although early on i got a boost, get my drift, when I'd first go out. Not anymore as it's routine but still exciting. 3 - I have been a 4.5 inch to 5.25 inch since day 1. 4 - there is nothing attractive about this for anyone.

We all spent way to much time hiding our passion. I expect 100 times as many never overcome their fear.

Am I the only who is sick of Taylor Swift? But your point is spot on.

I struggle with thongs, just don't like the between the toes deal. Those look good on you. Looking forward to seeing the others. Hope they hold up as you mentioned.

You're wearing a skirt and something with black socks. Looks to me like you should have bought the heels and moved on with them on.

Good luck. The heel is so far back, I'd be surprised if the same thing doesn't happen. I can't believe you can actually walk in these.

I wear what I feel for me are a combination of good looking and comfortable. I typically wear 12 to 13 cm heels, usually narrow stilettos. Like Melrose, I don't wear dresses, skirts, etc. I like "guy" clothes with heels. Your very comments suggest you believe heels are just for women and to wear them you must look like one. I'm not the only one here who doesn't agree with that viewpoint. All that said keep wearing what you feel is best for you.

What's the job?

Looks and sounds, reading, like a great short trip all around.

Glad you had a good trip, and yes riding a 40 plus yr old bike. These old friends must be used to seeing your heels with the various church services being aired. Glad you didn't bring flats but admittedly I never go without sneakers just incase I need to do vehicle maintenance or some form of heavy work. Not uncommon when driving 20 plus yr old vehicles.

Those cheap Chinese heels do look good. I do agree with your observation. I too often feel like I'm the only wearer of high heels. I've said it before, there must 1000 pair sold for every pair actually worn through its life.

That's still 12 yrs to reach Melrose's 2k. Plus he's documented those miles. Add church and farmers markets alone he's under valuing his total. In addition most people, myself included, over estimate their distances. This makes you a distant number 2 Cali. Runner up to the king.

I do believe you likely have more heel miles than 99.9% of the population that actually wears heels.

Most women have smaller feet than me. A 4 inch heel on a size 7 or 8, euro 37 or so is quite high.

A couple comments. 1. Melrose actually wears heels 4 to 4.5 inches at church, so he seems to think a higher heel is acceptable. 2. I believe in my shoe size 5 inch is acceptable and actually do wear them daily at a real office environment with no issues. 3. Glad to know you believe you are naturally attractive. Just curious what that means. Are you attractive in the nude? Anything else is not natural and I've seen very few attractive nude people myself included.

Go to alliexpress, Chinese but there are plenty of 10cm to 12cm heels, Wedges, block style or stilettos to choose from. Quality is available but read the reviews and spend nothing less than 45 bucks. All shoes under 45 are guaranteed to be junk.

It's a matter of practice. I'm a U.S. women's 10 to 11, depending on make and style. I rarely wear under 120mm or over 140mm. My sweetspot is 130mm. These numbers are all based on single soles. I agree that for my size 120 to 140mm also look the best. Anything higher looks off and anything lower just don't appeal to me.
