  1. I have no problem shopping in any department or any store. If I see something I like I will get it and work it into my freestyle fashion. Case in point is the sherpa I got last year. I wore it to work today and it was perfect for the chilly day we had.  Layer with my puffy down vest I was warm all day.  

    Women love this jacket, but what surprise me was how many men (4) i had tell me they liked the jacket and wanted one too.

    This is my third pair of Vera Wang Talli pump/loafers. I got these formerly 300 dollar shoes on Poshmark for 50 bucks, and I am pretty sure they've never been worn. I have two other pairs in black and crocodile print dark brown. These are plain brown, and are actually darker than the picture in the ad showed. My pictures here, depending on your monitor, are pretty accurate on the color. I remarked elsewhere on how inconsistent these shoes are on the heel height. The fit is exactly the same on all three pairs, but the heel heights are all different. My black pair has exactly 5" heels. The croc brown pair has 5 3/8" heels, a significant difference. This plain brown pair has 5 1/8" heels, a slight but discernible difference. What the heck? These are not cheap shoes, I don't understand why the inconsistency. They are all the same size, same model, same fit on my feet. The only difference is the color. A mystery of life!

    Different production lines for different colors and weak quality control. Slightly different leather/materials may play a role.

  3. Are you saying "All the world is a stage? "

    In my profession, I know I'm an actor, I need to be entertaining and informative. I use the phrase "Show time" all the time because I tell a different story several times a day.

     

    Now to answer the question. Yes, because ....

  4. I have been wear my Jessica Simpson Rachies a lot. I think they are cute and by the number of compliments I get others like them as well.  So I just ordered a second pair in black and a second pair in red.

    I have visited about a half dozen shoe stores in the past week. Tried on about 12 shoes, wasn't impressed by any . By wedges from 2015 have seen better days, so I have started a quest to replace thhem and retire/sell the old ones.

    I know the old ladies at my church are always checking to see what I'm wearing on any given Sunday. I try not to repeat too often for this very reason!

    Be careful @mlroseplant, you are setting yourself up for increased expectations. What would happen if you wore the same heels 3 weeks in a row?  :giggle:

  6. I filled it out but there was one AGE DISCRIMINATORY  question.

    Something like "Are you going to stop wear high heels when you turn 60?"

    Well I'm almost 65 and plan wear heels till I'm at least 100, then I will see.

    You need another choice. "I'm never giving up heels!"

  7. I write about 10% of my encounters and now only the new or unusual - like a women telling you she has the same heels but in black while never breaking stride. I broke the bearer of wearing visible high heels at work over 5 years ago when that was the only type of shoes I could walk in. Since then it has be normalized for me to be in heels to the point I get asked why I'm NOT in heels on the few occasions . I go everywhere in heels.
