Great News. Loo forward to the photos Fred

I would say my feet hurt. I think anything else is a bit of lie.

My girlfriend went to Ascot today wearing 4.5" 1980s cone heels (really cool shoes) that are the perfect fit for her. She may as well have iron feet and wears heels of some kind pretty much everyday. When she got back to Brighton she was what can only be described as crippled.

Proper (thin and over 2") heels are something that mess up what nature intended and as such can't really be mentioned in the same sentence as 'practical' or 'comfy'.

'Sexy' and 'the most brilliant thing ever invented' are.

This story shows even experienced heel wears have problem walking all day in heels! I wonder how occasional wearers got on? Although I have never been I get the impression that heels are almost 'de-rigour' at Royal Ascot.

What heels did your GF wear the next day and would she wear the cone heels or a simialr height next year to Ascot?

Cheers Fred

Fashionista, Amandahls,

What are your sizes? Mine 37/37.5. I had try on 7 inch. But indeed 12 steps en wobbling en stumbling. 6 en 6.5 inch aren't really a problem. Only if I wear them say for work, shopping and the rest of the day my feet’s wil hurt a bit the next day. Peter asked my them to wear 6" for a week and after that no more trouble than after one day. So it is a bit of get used. But with 7" my toes will hardly make the bend en don't touch the "ground" enough to get a stable walk.

With ballet (boots) there is a difference the are higher 7"+ but my toes don’t bent and on a strange way they are more stable on that way. Last 2 years try them lot. Know I'm ready for vacation shopping. I looking forward to it and very curious about myself for the experience. Hopefully Champs Elysee but have know idea of I can made it.

Love Esther

What work do you do? Are you standing a lot in your heels? Is it ever a problem? 37.5 are very small feet for wearing 6"

Cheers

Fred

Hi MK5, thsanks for the posts. Can't see any photos. Are they in the Gallery section?

Fred

Thanks for the photos. they are all great.

Particularly like the shoes with a buckle (http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i272/John_and_Gail/Shoes/DSCF0647.jpg), that you have had many years. When did you used to wear them? Where they everyday shoes? Like heel height and toe shape.

Fred

Richy Love the shoes. Can she walk in them? What are everyday heels like? Fred

Roz The gold sandals look amazing. Might hard to walk and stand in? Please post a photo when you get them Chers Fred

Hi Neil It's wonderful your wife can walk in such high shoes. When does she wear hear 5.5” & 6” Heels? Can she walk far in them (few can) and how easy/hard does she find it? Love to hear more about her heel wearing. Cheers Fred

Cinnamon Great to hear that heels run in your family! Must be in your Genes. How do her heels (and your Grandmothers) compare to the styles you wear? I trusts yours are higher. Does your mother still wear heels? Cheers Fred

Amazing 18 cm shoes. Can she walk in them? has she worn them out of the house? Love to see some more photos Cheers Fred

Lovely Shoes How high? Is there a platform? (looks as if there might be one) When does she plan to wear them? Cheers Fred

It's a great video

Great Photos. Which ones are the Wife? Cheers Fred

Welcome Cinnamon

It's great you wear 4.5” with such Petit feet. Is that for work or play?

Also you have a tiny waist. Few can lace to 18”. Have you seen the www.staylace.com site?

Keep up the posts

Fred

Hi and Welcome. Back Then I used to chat a lot on Jenny's High Heel Chart. Cheers Fred

Fantastic boots - soo elegant. How much room is there for the toes? Cheers Fred

Tanya The photos are great. Especially like the pink louboutins - so high! Also agree with you re fighting the trend for round toe ballet flats. Thanks Fred

Hi Pata Thanks for lovely photos. Fantastic shoes! A couple of questions: 1 What are your everyday work or home shoes like (height, style)? 2 Do you wear more practical shoes if standing or walking a lot? 3 How often do you get sore feet, legs or toes? Cheers Fred

Jim I agree that I like to see shoes that have actually beed worn. Very suspicious of HH photos where the sole is pristine Cheers Fred

Micha I agree with what you are saying Fred

Hi Spikesflyer What a fantastic pair of shoes! I hope you don’t mind me asking a couple of questions: 1 What shoe size is your wife? 2 What height does she wear out of the house (say to work or when shopping) 2 What is her height limit for walking/standing? Cheers Fred
