  1. Hmm. Not the best images I have seen of her. She can look quite classy when she wants to, but I do like the shoes. They look to be at least 5 inches high. Anyone got any idea of the make and style of them? They are designer, for sure, given the triangular metallic area on the underside of the sole, at the toe end. I'd say they look about UK size 7, (maybe size 8 even) or so, too. But then, shes a tall girl. .

  2. Good post Heelfan. Covered just about everything that I would have said.

    One more question. What sort of heels are you looking for?

    There are obviously court shoes (pumps), and then with a strap over the foot there are the Mary Janes styles.

    There are various sandals, with open or closed toes, or strappy toes. Some shoes (both courts or sandals) can have an ankle strap, and there are d'Orsay styles with a court-like toe, a back piece to the rear of the foot and an ankle strap. These are really nice. There are sling-backs of various types, and there are slip-on mules. Finally there are many types of boots from ankle length, calf length, knee length, and thigh boots.

    When done with that decision, do you want a stiletto heel, a block heel, or a wedge heel; Oh, and was that with, or without, a platform ??

    Just remembered one more thing... how high do you want the heel?

    Anything from 0 to 9 inches is possible without a platform. For a first time wearer try something about, or just under, 4 inches; or just over if feeling adventurous. Once you like it, you'll want to go for 5 inch or more, but that takes practice.

    Have a look in Faith, United Footwear, and TK Maxx too, if you can.

    Happy shopping!

  3. They look like the toe box collapses slightly as well, and thereby gets a nasty crease across it. It doesn't look right. Ah, wait a minute. Maybe (for the shoes in the top two rows only) those aren't actually photographs but simply some images produced by an art package on a computer. They look too alike in the patterning on each shoe, etc.

  4. >> Mars will rise in the east at 10 p.m. and reach its azimuth at about 3 a.m. <<

    Make that the zenith instead, and it'll read right. Looked out last night, and it is really easy to find. Just look South-East around midnight.

    A number of places in Britain look to be having observing sessions at the end of August; in National Astronomy Week. Darn, there is a National Something-or-other Week every week it seems.

  5. >> Julietta, all I see are red X's :evil <<

    Umm, I think all that was meant was that the user was not seeing the images, just the little box with a red X in it that the Infernal Exploiter throws up when it can't be bothered to load the images in a web page.

    Heh, those Oxfords are quite nice. A few people do still sell them. I'll probably be shot if I mention Leatherworks, in Islington, or The Little Shoe Box just down the road from them, again.

  6. One of the funniest things I ever saw on TV was Dirty Den dubbed into Norwegian when we had freak TV reception in the UK, and stuff from many miles away came through as clear as if it were from just down the road.
