One of the ways the feds get their rules adopted is through disasters.  To get federal disaster funding the feds require the community to adopt the federal standards.

Today I was sitting having an afternoon beer with some friends, sitting with my leg across the knee of the other. One of guys I was drinking with looked at my Freebird Blaze and said "those are some nice shoes."

The one below is a black pair, I wore my brown pair today.

Which ones were they

I run my errands in my Steve Madden Estrella mules.

Nice lug heels.  Been looking for a pair myself.

Painted toe nails? What about painted fingernails?

Diamond Chips

I was in Costco and an young Asian woman came around the corner and she couldn't take her eyes off my heels. She looked up at me for just a moment and went right back to locking onto my shoes. I used the "Don't you just love them" line as I passed. I heard her whisper "yes".

LOL

Use your imagination of the outfits that might go with those heels.

Up

Only for late night indoor activities, but not something I would consider.

So I bit the bullet and said screw it. Heeling makes me happy, so I put on my knee boots with extra long pants in Chicago and wore them until I got home just now. Took out the cushions and my feet actually felt better without them in there.

I wear Aldo cushions in many of my heels, but not in my boots and some booties

Back to work tomorrow, so no heeling until the weekend lol

We should get together some time and go shoe shopping. Maybe meet at DSW on Steven's Creek Bld.

Demand

What I am saying is, if you want to normalize it for your wife (i.e. wear them) then you may need to de-fetish them. To many SO's it is a bad thing.  To me a collection is something you have on a self that you rarely use, like a collection of cameras opposed to camera(s) that you use to take photos.

Almost all the time, 50-100% of what I have on started out on the "women's" side of the store. I wear what I like and what fits me the best.

Sometimes when I get the "stare" I'll simply ask as I pass by, "don't you just love them" and may times I'll get a "YES."  Last real stare was from a woman who followed me out of the post office. As I was getting into my car she stopped behind my car and told me "interesting foot wear." I had my Steve Madden beat up mules on.

Steve,

I have my Madden heels, my Victoria's Secret heels, Charles David heels, Nine West heels, ..., but they are just heels. My daily shoes.

Some people have coin collections, stamp collections, toy elephant collections, ..., but if you want to get your SO to be okay with your heels, just call them "my shoes" or "my heels".
