    Love the black boots with the white soles, are they leather?

    HI 

    Yes, the upper and lining are leather but the rear part is a stretchy fabric

    makes them a real effort to get on, as they are very tight and run small, (more of a 10-41) hence out they go

    Pity as once on they are gorgeous

    How can you part with so many pairs. I’d really struggle to let go so many lovely heels. Especially the red/black FSJ pumps - I’ve had my eye on a pair of those for sometime.

    Hi Kim

    As tastes evolve and my limit of what I think i can wear changes I found I bought lots of shoes, some fitted well, some less so. The FSJ shoes are really great, but I wasnt a fan of the cut so im unlikely to wear them.

    I just needed the space so I was rutheless 

  2. Hello everyone

    I just picked up a pair of new (2nd hand) boots from Aus auction site gumtree

    SIREN brand, lace up platform ankle boots. Ive never had a lace up pair before but the price was right ($10), for 'As New' boots in real leather

    They are a little snug on left foot, but will stretch as they are leather.

    They are very high, so going to take some time to get walking with confidence in them; 15cm heel, 3cm platform

  3. Just a quick post, thought I should share in this area as well. Sitting in a nice cafe, having a coffee on the footpath watching the world go by

    Chinos and 'HOT OPTIONS' leopard print stilettos pumps, 12 cm heel, 1.5 cm platform, 100% synthetic. They are still a bit firm, not tight, just need to soften a little.

    Easy to walk in and ride scooter in

    Enjoy your day

  4. Hello everyone.

    Im away in Canberra for a few days and thought I should get a few posts in.

    Went to bar in hotel, then out and down the street to a local 7/11 store, then back to bar.

    Wearing black womens tight leggings and my new peep toe Nine West Expensive shoes. Still a little snug but that will loosen

    Regards

    I was looking for boots and I came across the Jessica Simpson Rollin Boot (Women) at Nordstrom.com. A platform sole gives an extra style boost to a tall stiletto boot upgraded.  Full length zipper, goes up to a size 12....just in case someone is interested.

    love these

    Pity that they are quite expensive. They also come in a plain black leather, which looks really nice

  6. I also have a pair of purple suede booties from Clarks. I agree on the huge step up that Clarks seem to have in quality and fit over some of the cheaper brands.

    I wear my purple boots with either blue denim jeans or black chinos, either a white shirt or like many of my business shirts small checks, and some pink / purple in the checks.

    I also have a pair of purple strappy heels which I wear with denim jeans and generally a T shirt or similar.

    I have attached pics of these 2, plus a 3rd pair or deep purple patent boots with a clear heel. I loved the colour but was never sure on the heel so I didnt buy these

  7. I just got a delivery

    I bit the bullet and bought a NEW pair of shoes, even though I waited a bit till they came down from Full price to sale. I tried them on when they first came into the store and loved them

    Nine West EXPENSIVE, in black patent. (Here is the weirdness. The US version is Synthetic. The AUS version is Leather...... GO FIGURE)

    peep toe half D'orsay with a platform

    super comfy !

    super easy to walk in !

    I never thought about it, but once I saw the half D'orsay pair I realised I liked the less is more type shoe.

    I will get actual pics ASAP, but have lost my phone for a few days to repairman.

    Ive attached a stock photo from Nine West

  8. Hello to everyone

    Been a quiet period, work and weekend sports taking up a lot of time. 

    Im just finishing a 3 day trip to Canberra, and was brave enough to wear some shoes normally reserved for warmer climes. I guessed I would be spending most of my time indoors.

    Here are a few pics

    The 1st 2 are my Wittner peep toe ankle boots in a sand coloured leather. Ive posted these before and these boots are a go to now for me, with denim jeggings

    The next 2 are Wittner 11.5cm (4.5inch) stiletto pumps, pointy toe and set back heel. I love these. Lounging in bar with black leggings.

    These were the 1st 2 days

    Then this afternoon I dropped in to the Canberra Centre Wittner store and checked out some current styles.

    try on 1: Gold boots are super comfy and with only a 9cm heel are way easy to walk in. The gold is gorgeous but I dont think went with the denim jeggings, maybe with black or a lighter blue ?

    Try on 2: Mid brown thigh boots, a stretch suede that fits like a glove, pull on, but surprisingly easy to get on and off. these have a 10cm heel, they are reduced big time but still $250, so I will wait a bit longer. They also come in black leather which I think I would prefer

    Here are my latest.  I bought these in a local thrift store for less than $20!  And as far as I can tell they have never been worn!The brand is Just Fab.  They are brown with a suede like look to them.  The heel is a chunky blade type.  It measure around 4 inches.  The are super comfortable and easy to walk in.  Can't wait for fall weather so I can give these a whirl.

    Now they are great looking boots, and at a great price

    Well Done

  10. Whilst here in OZ we have plenty of nasty crawly bitey stingy things, and a fair percentage of the most venomous things around.

    The big salt water crocs are amazing to see and up close they scare the absolute beejesus out of me, however dont forget the drop bears, which are legendary.....

    Hi everyone, I'm back. It's been a while but I got a new pair of boots today! I've wanted to own a pair of Luichiny shoes for a while and I finally got one. They're Real Lee knee high boots in ice gray, size 11. I got them at 50% off from TotallyWickedFootwear on eBay. 

    888891481_LuichinyBack.thumb.jpg.8bf98c6d973f3509e5790142c10bfab4.jpg

    These are my images. The boots are obviously gray, however they're lighter than in the last 3 images. The first one is the most representative. They have a 6 inch heel and 1 1/2 inch platform. They feature Luichiny's trademark heart stamp sole and rhinestone straps along the back. I also really like the combination of leather and suede. Finally, they're actually really comfortable. Overall, a worthwhile purchase.

    Great Looking Boots. I checked their Ebay store. Are they Leather or Synthetic. The store seems a bit ambiguous on this

    Thanks. I fly all over the world but, oddly enough, almost never to America. Haven’t been there in at least five years. And seldom before that. One drawback with wearing nice pull-on knee boots when you fly is having to take them off for security. They have chairs on the other side of the barrier for you to sit and out your shoes/boots back on, but none where you need to take them off. And it is hard to take off pull-on knee boots standing up!

    I have done that a couple of times, standing at the check point hoping on 1 leg trying to get a boot off, (only an ankle 1 but it was tight). I generally now make sure i wear easily removed boots for flying.

    Went into WANTED shoes yesterday and tried on the SIREN 'posse' boots in black leather. They have an interesting flat type heel that is 9cm. I have been tossing up whether to get this in the black (which is after all a little more wearable day to day) or the Red patent.

    Theyre both on special at moment from $249 to $120

    Well Well

    Good things occasionally come to those who wait and keep in touch with things

    Was in my normal WANTED store in the Sydney CBD last week and found out that the WANTED store in Westfield Sydney, about 500m away was closing.

    I dropped in there today on the last day of trade and everything is silly prices

    New shoes and boots 5 pair for $100, or $30 each

    I found both the  Siren Posse boots in black leather and  Ruby Patent in my size, so instead of $249 each about 4 weeks ago. I got them both for $30 each

    I am calling that a bargain !!
