  1. Decided to use the credit card so I could borrow a pair of Louboutin So Kates for the night. Walking is not bad, but you can tell it's a full 5" heel. The ball of foot and toe area are not comfortable, so I won't feel too bad about returning a pair of shoes I really like (the 5" boots I got are far more comfie for the same size)

     

    Oh well, have been curious to try these out for months. As said, if I got a comfortable pair I might want to keep them ;)

    Those are spectacular !

  2. You lucky sod!

    Back in the day they nearly always asked if I wanted to try them on (it's not such a shock these days LOL). I think it' because I'd be sitting there with one shoe off ready that did it!

    Hehe thanks :-) perhaps its more common than i thought, and not such a shock if a guy asked to try shoes for size :-)

  3. I have had a rich interest and passion for heels for a very long time, and have usually ordered online, or occasionally just purchased in shop. I was out on a shopping excursion with my friend a few weeks ago, browsing shops and buying new items, when she directed me to a pair of heels that caught her eye in Debenhams (UK dept store). They were on clearance sale, and heavily reduced in price. For a few days i looked at them online, and they style appealed to me more and more where the temptation grew where i just had to have them. I went back to the store a few days later to purchase them, and took the heel on the rack to a girl, and said id like to buy the pair. She took them to another girl at the counter, where i waited to be served. The girl behind the counter fetched the box and matching heel and came back to the counter, where she said... " these are beautiful heels, would you like to try them on for size?". This was the first time, ever, i had been in a shop, and i was asked if i woukd like to try a pair on. She asked so casually, that it really caught me off guard, and my instant reaction was "no thats fine, im buying them for someone else". She was a lovely assistant. As i got to my car, i wondered if i should have tried them on. I think the shock of the comment made me nervous. I know my size (5uk/38eu), and they did fit perfectly when i got home, but my mind is very curious as to what it wouod have been like to accept the offer to try them on before purchase. Was quite a thrilling experience. Ive attached a pic of the heels i purchased. Id love to hear comments, or similar experiences :-)

  4. Wow, thanks!!

    Have you ever used their returns policy before?

    surprisingly i´ve never had to use the return policy. i´ve purchased both men´s and women´s shoes, and all have fit very well. There is a pretty good size chart on endless.com. I would suggest though as mentioned before by another, go for a brand/s you already wear and like, as you´re more likely to get the size more accurate. And the flip side is that if the size is wrong, youŕe really likely to break even by re-selling online (or you could return).

    endless.com displays all shoes really well, and the pictures are quite accurate.

    I have been caught out once with the $10 shipping fee once (i purchased a particular pair that invoked the fee, but couldn´t really complain, its not much for shipping.

    The other positive was the fast shipping, the 4 times ive ordered, all orders arrived in less than a week. I´m in auckland, so if you´re further down south then it might take an extra day or 2.

    And if you´re like me and just have to know where your parcel is during transit, there´s some cool apps for smartphones to track parcels.

  6. Nice heels in the photo , Welcome :wave:

    I only just saw this section here or I would have tried filling it in before.

    Name: Christine

    Age: 22 (23 in July)

    Gender: Female

    Location: Perth Australia

    Occupation: Currently doing Document Control (assisting mostly), but was employed to do Technical Documentation (in the IT group). Want to get into OCM (Organisational Change Management because my best friend does that and she makes more money :smile:).

    Height: 168 cms (about 5'6")

    Weight: 57 kilo (trying to get back down to 54, I used to cycle a lot but not so much in the last couple of years, need to get back into it)

    Shoe size: 38 (7-7.5)

    What's your favourite heel style: Stiletto

    What's your favourite shoe style: Changes but I had thing about slides in my teens and I still think slides are seriously sexy but they are hard to wear (my heel just never seems to stay on the heel properly). Not into full platforms that much but semi-plats are okay (with up to 1/2" of platform). My current favourites are a pair of orange C'est Bon that are sort of slides but they have a heel cup that keeps my heels in place. Sort of the perfect slides in a way. I have them on in the posting picture.

    Do you wear your heels outside: Totally ... any excuse.

    What is:

    (a) Your favourite heel height: It varies with the shoe but about 4".

    (:( Your highest heel height: Had to go measure them ... a pair of Tony Bianco semi-plat nude (skin coloured) peep toes ... 5.5"

    How often do you wear:

    (a) Your favourite heel height: Any excuse and often without an excuse.

    (B) Your highest heel height: Rarely. I have only worn the Bianco heels out three times.

    Do you wear socks, hose, stockings or bare feet with your shoes: Mostly always bare feet. Like most teens I have done the stockings and garter thing a few times and in winter I sometimes were hose. Not that it gets really that cold in Perth (never goes below zero centigrade at night and days never even get under about 15C (60F)).

    Anything else you wish to add: Lately I have a thing about going grocery shopping in heels. It's kind of exciting. I take all new heels grocery shopping at least once. Makes grocery shopping even something to look forward to sort of.

    Sorry for the bolding and underlining ... but documentation is what I do and it seemed to need it :D

    Christine.

  7. Surely you mean "The red pair are awesome"??

    "is" refers to something like i.e....

    The red shoe is awesome" or "Wearing the red pair is awesome"

    Y'no I'm jst ynking ya chain right...

    haha! :smile: it was rather eraly in the morning when i commented (brain not entirely in gear).

    how about.... "I think the red pair (that chris100575 posted) look fantastic !"

  8. I think these are the three most feminine pairs I own, but cannot decide between them. They're all satin, the middle pair are pink and lacy but the other two have bows on. On balance I think probably the red pair is the most girly.

    The red pair is awesome ! :smile:

  9. Hello to all of you,

    I am new and I thought this is the best way to introduce myself.

    I have almost 75 pairs of high heeled shoes, from 4.5" to 7" without platform and all stilettos. No flat shoes except from one pair of trainers. Always trying to have more and higher heels!

    Greetings to everyone...

    That sounds like an impressive collection.!

    Welcome to the Forum :)
