A pr. I have had my eye on from Amazon for a while.

A couple of mine.....

As much as I love my heels, I am still not a "public heeler". I stay confined to my home or the car. I just do not have the confidence to do so. Still I appreciate he compliments on my heels and pedi. I do my toes myself and vary in my colors quite often but usually in the purple and pink tones.

New wedges...another great deal from a liquidation store. Half price!

My latest thrift store find...heel tips not even worn...10 bucks.

One of my favorite pair of wedge boots. I believe they are one of my first pair of boots I bought and would hate to part with them. Already had to re-glue the sole once because it was lifting. Out of season right now but will be back in season soon enough.

Probably some dark denim, or black skinny jeans. Something like this...

My new "sky scrapers" I have coming. Found a deal on ebay, new in the box from a private seller. Have been looking for a pr. this color for a while now.

Yep....that or a pr. of bell bottoms and a denim jacket too.

They would look great with a pr. of denim skinny jeans. You should try some, I am sure they would look and feel awesome with these sexy platforms.

If they are going to keep this going, I will add another to the collection. I must say there are some amazing legs posted here!

I have no research to share on such subjects and do not wish to start a public debate or wish to share my personal experiences on this subject. I just theorize on my own personal experience on the subject. I in no way am trying to catagorize, label or say that is this is what drives each person in their clothing attire choices. Just saying it may be a factor in some cases based on myself.

That's amazing...what a confidence booster to walk hand in hand with a wife that wears heels and is proud to be with a man that also does so. Congratulations!

Lets hope it will be a more common practice.

Thanks for all the thoughtful responses.  I can't help but thing of these things lately.  I had my testosterone checked and it was low and I wonder if it contributes to my desire to wear heels and other feminine attire.

 

I do think testosterone levels and such effect our desire to be more feminine or want to wear such attire in some cases. I have had my own experience with elevated prolactin levels and medications to control it. I feel that it does contribute to my drive my desire to do so.

All I can say is that opinions are like elbows...everyone has one one. Whether you like platforms or not each has their own taste and reasons for choosing their own style. All I can hope for is that we are open minded enough to not denegrade someone for their choice in heels. Again heel height is a choice or preference not a competition who can wear what height whether it be with or without platforms. Another old saying...."if you can not say something nice....better to not say anything at all."

I agree they do go with a lot of things but I will admit mine are "stripper shoes", 5 prs of pleasers but all have colored heels red, black, beige, white and met. pink and all are platforms. Regardless I love wearing them and I must say yours look amazing also! Just one of mine.

Platforms are my favorite style of heels, be it pumps, sandals or boots. I too like the illusion of a higher heel without the strain on your feet to balance on a 5" rise. But the nice thing here is that everyone has their own tastes and are respectful of each others. We all have one thing in common and that is the love of heels and the discussions concerning them.

New Pleaser Beaus with 6.5" heel and 1.75 platform.

Have these pumps on order. A bit extreme for most peoples taste but really like the color and style. 

Totally agree...my favorite combination. A casual look but with the right colors and styles...a great look.

Thinking about ordering these in the new year. Definitely would qualify for "girly heels".

My peeptoe pumps with the bows are from Justfab.

Picked these up the other day. Not usually into single sole boots but I like the gold accents and tassles on the zippers. They fit amazing and are about a 3.5" heels which is relatively shorter than I normally gravitate too.

Just bought a pair like these today. Not my usual go to style which is platform stilettos but I have been eyeing them for a couple of weeks. Simply love the bright red color and were not very much when you find a 40% off sale.

 

Got them at a store called Urban Planet.
