  1. To be honest, I'm kinda surprised I did fall down this rabbit hole, but I think it started when I saw a pair of the Crocs siren clogs in Scooby-Doo colors.  They just dug my retro vibe, so I had to get them.  Oh my goodness, they are so comfortable, and the 3" heel is kinda cute too, so I managed to find the red chain siren clogs as well.  Anyone else get into Crocs of any kind, and if you did, what kind did you find to be your favorite?

  2. Hallo!  I would say happy new year, but it's already getting towards the end, but I hope everyone has had a good year.  There isn't much of an atmosphere here condusive to being out and about in heels, plus my back and weight kind of preclude anything I used to wear, but I have found some comfort in a new style of heeled clog by Crocs, so I got the Scooby-Doo themed ones, and ordered some that are dark cherry with a chain.  At least some fun can still be had and hope everyone else has some fun too!

    Be well!

  3. OPI all the way.  I like the awesome range of colors, plus the fact that you don't have to touch them up near as much as other brands.  They have this magnificent shade of deep red that I just adore.  Not only that, the supply place I go to from time to time puts some colors on sale, so I get to really fill up the polish box!

  4. Hello to all after quite the long hiatus.  Apologies I've not been here in some time.

    It's been quite the time over the past few years, and sadly, it's been it's share of downs as well as ups.  Life has taken its toll on my heel wearing, and I'm not as thin as I once was, so unfortunately, my heel wearing has just about gone by the wayside.  I haven't gotten to the point of doing "the purge" just yet, as I've invested quite a bit in my collection, although the taller stuff I doubt I'll be donning again anytime soon.  Society has taken its toll as well, as I've had fewer and fewer chances to go out and about.  I can't say it's an age thing, as I've seen many wonderful people here of all ages who enjoy heeling, and you're all beautiful people.

    As of late, I have taken to another of my passions - social media.  I've developed pages on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Wordpress, and a YouTube channel.  If you look up on any of these by my other handle - MidnightBanshi - you will see what I've been up to.  This handle seems to suit my general tastes more these days, as let's face it.......I'm just not the shocker I used to be.  I still love heels, and enjoy seeing them, but my back and I have had our words, and I think it's on the winning side.........at least until I shed some poundage.

    All the best!

  5. The main thing, and I'm sure others have said this, is confidence.  If you wear your shoes like nothing new and just go about like nothing is out of the ordinary, less people will notice.  If you act and walk nervous, then it draws attention to your feet, and can defeat the purpose.  Walk with a smile and your head held high!  Go for it!

  6. Now that it's getting warmer out, I plan on getting a long denim skirt for wearing out, as well as having a custom-made kilt done up.  Granted they are used a bit differently, but they are both stylish and I also may be working on embellishing the skirt with a custom bedazzler pattern that I'll be doing myself.  Should be fun!

  7. I have never ever had a bad experience shopping at the Payless stores here in Montana, or when I went to the uber-huge Mecca store in Denver (2nd largest in the country!).  The main store here is fun, and I chat with the employees and manager all the time.  They are a hoot to be around, and they make it so welcoming!  I just bought a new pair of ballet flats there this past week, and absolutely love them!  I'll keep going back for sure!

  8. I seem to have an easier time finding women's jeans/pants in my size than men's - plus I like the cut/ style way better. Haven't looked back since! Been always wearing hose with them too! Makes for easier shopping for heels, so there's an added bonus!

  9. Hi all! I just got back from my vacation in Denver, and Oh My Lordy Becky! They have opened a Payless that is divine!! It's located just off of I-225 & Alameda, across from th Aurora Mall. Thi store is the 2nd largest in the country, and their size 13 section is about the size of most store's size 8 section! Yes, it's that big! I bought my tan Kosmik pumps in 13w right there off the rack, and coudn't be happier! The staff were awesome too, so if you ever get down there, it's worth the trip!

  10. I've noticed lately while window shopping on Payless.com that guys are posting reviews about shoes they have bought there and enjoy, and the amount is increasing, it seems! Of course the fact that they stock more 12's and 13's I'm sure doesn't hurt anything. Good sight to see!
