  1. I have a jury duty call for the second week of the year.

    I have a medical exception. Even if I get called and asked the standard questions, once I tell them my profession and my extensive background in logic, the attorney's from both sides will always excuse me.

  2. Got a pedi with red background and a tree with lights on the big toes.

    Since you like like pink/clear on your fingers look at NOBILITY Gel Polish - Pink Abalone. It's a clear pink with an iridescent blue hue.  I constantly get a random "I love your nails" when handing over a credit card or like today, just getting a blood draw.

  3. Back in 2017, Victoria’s Secret advertised them as "stiletto wedges". They are about as wide as many stilettos at the back. They attract lots of attention when I wear them.

    Stiletto wedges? Is that not a contradiction in terms?

    I knew I had to repost this picture from 2017. 

    One of my first "what the hell am I doing" moments when I got these and a pair of VS floating platform stilettos. My first stilettos.

  5. It's almost a "club" of high heel wearers. ALways checking out each others shoes when we see each other. Even the President told me she liked my boots when we meet at the elevator.  After almost 10 years of wearing heels to work, I am a known person throught the place.

  6. This must be the "Year of the Broke Heel"

    We had a Holiday Party at work today. When I entered the room a short upper managment woman came over and asked why I wasn't wearing red heels. (A little background, we both like high stilettos heels and we frequently compare heels when we see each other.) I told her "I only have suede red stilettos and it was suppose to rain this afternoon", and it did, "so I worn my JS black faux suede knee highs this morning." (I guess I have to wear the red stilettos to the retirement party next week.) She showed me her red sparkley stiletto booties. ....and then ....

    she told me a story about a heel that fall off a pair of booties just like what happened to my booties.

    so it's the 

    "Year of the Broke Heel"

  7. Even I subdue my footwear in international locations.  I wore the booties that lost the heel recent in  Australia. A similar pair in Canada, England and Scotland.  But in Argentina and Chile I went with a 2 inch heel.

  8. My latest heel purchase finally can in.  First time even trying a Journee product.

    These are from the Journee Collection (whatever that is) called Markie Stiletto Booties.

    I got them because I’m looking for something in this color tone – gray. My normal size is 10, but I got them in a size 11 because of the pointed toes. However, they are too large. You just cant win.  So, I’m going to exchange them for a smaller size.

    I get the impression that you are not looking for a DIY remedy, Cali; am I right?   What I suggested above is quite easy to do with basic tools.

    I'll will probably do a DIY on them, but I am extremely busy right now. I have the tools, wood, and other supplies, the only thing I lack is time.

    I'm probably headed up to my cobbler this week or next. I will ask Marty how he deals with this issue. Somewhere in my collection I must have hollow heels like that, but nothing that I wear regularly.

    Thatwould be quite informative.

  11. I had a heel malfunction at an airport this week.  I think my heel go knock ascue on the escaltor. When I went through TSA I notice it and I thought I had fitted it when I put them back on post TSA.  However, the heel pad was missing when I got to the gate.  Luckly I had  a pair of running shoes with me.

    Next, where do I find a replacement for the heels for these booties.
