Wow! Black leather skirt, fishnet stockings, and spiky 7inch stiletto heel court shoes. Not an outfit for a long walk. Just right for lounging around in.

Shaving is too fiddly, a tube of Immac works wonders in just over ten minutes, and is best done just before having a shower.

I liked the jeans fabric stiletto mules a lot, but those white stiletto boots are just fantastic.

They look really high, and size 41 is just great. Superb.

I've also looked at the www.luichiny.es site before and they have some great stuff too.

Those are Superb mules with the stiletto heels. Very nice with jeans. Where did you get those, and at what sort of cost? What brand are they? Don't forget to add heel height and other useful information.

>> but it's generally the odd wife or girlfriend to be honest <<

You're gonna get another handbagging for calling the wife odd again.

Superb boots again. I prefer the vixen ones, if you were asking. Too much choice, not that I'm complaining.

I know of just the handbag for that, but finding an image on the web took some time:

<still looking>

I got distracted by false leads to:

Wow, when I said just an hour ago that I was really looking forward to the next instalment I didn't realise just how soon my wish would be fulfilled. Nice write up. Glad you had fun.

Superb pictures (as always) and a great write up of your day out and night in. It is hard work in heels that high, but I thinkyou can already see progress in just a few short days. Give it a month or two and it will probably seem quite easy. Looking forward to more instalments.

>> those heels are indeed 6 inches, and i'm an european size 37.5 <<

I find 6 inch heels difficult enough in Eur size 39.5 (UK size 6.5) but that is amazing in your size.

I observed the Beeb filming for a Science programme last year. They worked for nearly 7 hours getting over 5 hours of stuff on tape -- then edited it down to less than 4 minutes. Hmm.

Wow! Fantastic pix. I guess those stiletto heels are more for inside wear, than outside. Those heels look at least 6 inches, unless you have smaller feet than average. What size are you, and where did you get those shoes?

Maybe we all are living in a viritual word and we all are an illusion.

I'm still looking for the cracks in the Matrix. They're here somewhere.

That TLSB link http://www.thelittleshoebox.com/ just takes you to an announcement.

If you want the shop part of the site, you'll need instead: http://www.thelittleshoebox.com/frameset.htm Their site navigation has been messed up for nearly a year now.

I believe that (some of) the ArchEnemys shoes come from Leatherworks London, who have a shop about a mile from TLSB, also very near Islington.

Nice selection there. I like the J-Lo boots to have a slightly higher heel. Who made yours? I have seen them with heels from 3 to 5 inches in various places now.

Are those platform boots by Raid by any chance?

Wow! That is a tad extreme.

Oh no! Disaster. I can't believe you wrecked the heel. What a real shame. They were really nice. How did that happen?

They have a great web site, and some really nice shoes.

One thing that has always intrigued me: In your Winter season, do you get the stuff that Europe had on sale last Winter, or the sort of stuff that we are going to be getting next Winter? ... or do you have stuff that we just won't be seeing at all?

How's it work?

I offered to help a little old lady who was clearly struggling and got a very terse "I'm quite capable of doing it for myself, Thank You" in reply; and had to quickly step out of the way to avoid being jabbed with the umbrella or walking stick (I don't remember which it was) she was carrying.

You can't win.

This reminds me of a girl I saw getting out of a taxi to go into a nightclub one evening several years ago. The girl had a plaster cast, one on each leg, from just below the knee, right down to the toes (which were open) but her foot was inclined to the equivalent of at least a 4 inch heel in the plaster casts. She walked in using crutches.

I have seen something a bit like those, on the street already, a few weeks ago; but in that case the heel was a lot wider. A bit clumpy, but not too bad.

The sole has a very high incline with no arch. You are going to need very flexible ankles just to be able to stand up in them.

The toe section is very short so it looks like you don't rest on the ball of your foot, but rather the ball is already part way up the incline, and therefore more weight rests on the toes instead.

Quite strange, I don't like them all that much, the heel isn't right. Anyway, it is good to see lots of different designs coming out, as there are bound to be some people who do like them.

... that too... ... as well as: male and female, black and white, North and South, East and West, rich and poor, wise and not so wise, etc, etc, etc,

Many congratulations to you and your wife. Now we know why you keep all your toys in the loft -- out of harms way from little fingers, and consequent knocking over, and liquid spillages. * "loft" = attic, roofspace, etc. * "toys": I mean all your computers, and other gizmos.

some women are trying to get out of them, too. I wonder why?

Went to a nightclub last night, and at least three-quarters of the girls wore stiletto heels at least three inches high, and at least half of those were at least four inches. Saw several dozen at the 5 inch level as well.

The problem inherent in international forums, such as this, is that the reader may read something into a post that the writer did not intend. This may arise purely from the subtle differences in the way that some words are used in different countries. A word might be used regularly in one country, but when used in another country may invoke feelings that the poster was being rude, abrupt, sarcastic, or whatever; when this may not have been the intention at all.

Additionally, someone writing in a language that isn't their first language may not be fully aware of the special things that certain words might convey beyond that given by their basic dictionary definition, and may therefore write something which doesn't quite mean what they intended.

So, be aware that although you think you understand what you thought you heard me say, what I actually said may not have been quite what I meant.
