Bootking

Well, it has advantages and disadvantages. For clothing, no problem although the feet are not that small (Women's 11/12 depending upon style, etc.) But a lot of the men's clothes are cut too large. Oh well.......

Thanks!! In jeans, usually a junior 7, misses 6 or 8

You're like me; black patent stilettos forever!! Great look, especially the album cover!

Thanks! Just love stilettos!!

Glad to hear that you've moved but (as the ancient cliche goes) Rome wasn't built in a day. At some point I'm going to take the ride out to Clarion, PA and I'll let you know as soon as I do when that will be. My big concern now is to get back working; although I LOVE retirement (I'm actually busier than before), I can't afford it! Take care, my friend and we'll catch up at some point.

Hi Tom, How did you make out with your move? By the by, I was outbid on a couple of your items! I was supposed to be out your way in early July but the wedding was called off so there was no immediate need to come out that way. Hopefully another time. R

Thanks for the nice pic comments!

No it's more about her sense of self, embarassment, etc. Some things you can get your s/o to work with, some you can't.

Daniel, I'll bet you had a lot of fun! I would like to try it, but the wife won't go for it.

They're from Highest Heel; thanks!

David and Cathy, what a great album with some awesome pics and great boots! You rock!!!!!

Thanks guys; compliments are always appreciated!

Thanks Henri, it's just that I prefer them.

Thanks but I know that the wife would NOT appreciate any of this stuff. On my own, out of town, that's another story. But I'm long past the pick-up stage, my friend, as I'm committed to the marriage. Thanks for the compliment though. By the by, did you see the thread on Walk a Mile in Her Shoes? I'm going to be doing the walk on Thursday morning in Danbury, CT.

My God, man - you haven't just pushed the envelope like Jeff - you blew it up with dynamite! Amazing, my friend!!!!

Nice album, HappyFeat!

That's what I figured about Aldo's. There is no way in hell that I can get into a 10. I can't even wear all elevens (particularly Steve Madden but also Bronx and some others). On the other hand, I can wear 12s (even the Steve Madden is tight) but some of them are TOOO big! So, at least for me, it really is a crap shoot for size although generally (not always) I can do Nine West in an 11. A boot of theirs, Splurge or something like that with a square to I couldn't wear. I have a pair of silver sandals from them that cut across the toe and don't work well either. But that Shoe Biz!

I haven't done the small store thing in a very long time, mainly due to the size issue. At least at the outlets, you can see what is available or isn't at a glance, rather than wait for the "sold out" story. How do you find how the Aldo shoes run? I haven't tried them yet due to the size 41 being the largest.

Those red Gooros are to die for!

Glad you enjoyed the Nine West thread, H; it's been fun writing it. I was hoping to get back to Fairfield soon but we'll see. I know the salesgirl would be more than happy to order anything I wanted. I don't know how you feel about it, but I much prefer the outlet store to the regular ones as I prefer to see if they have what I want without the guessing game. B

I figured as long as we are friends, I might as well say hello!
