A student from Cheshire has been awarded £7,000 in compensation for breaking her ankle when the heel broke off a new pair of "high" heel shoes....all 2.5inches of them

Wouldn't it be great if the payout was proportional to heel height....

Yes there is some adult language buts lets be grown up about it....

I just found the website below. I have no idea what they are like, but I figured that it would allow us in the UK to purchase shoes from Zappos.com and others that don't ship to non US/Canadian residents.

shopanyamericanstore.com

Cheers,

Great link and certainly handy for getting items of Zappos...if you dont have a proxy buyer in the states.

Biggest (predictable) problem is the handling fee....standard delivery/handling $72...

I was invited to attend the wedding of my friends who are both TV antennas. The wedding wasn't that great but the reception was excellent.

Just to add to the topic more than anything there is a vid on Youtube here of some...you will need to log in though due to age restrictions...

There are many objects that people collect and never take them out of the box, or even display them.

I'm not the only one to have said it on other threads but...

Just to follow up this thread and give a bit of conclusion.. After much searching and enquiring about I came to a blank as to being able to get a pair of these shoes. Bebe returned with "To ensure that our merchandise is unique, we offer limited quantities, and often these items are not re released" and Dolce Vita...didn't hear back from them. Then all of a sudden a couple of pairs appeared on Ebay in the States and thus my GF is now a proud owner of a pair. She is dead chuffed with them as (in her words) "make her feet look smaller". I was dead chuffed as they were a.brand new b. cheaper than the release price and also think they look mint! Anyway I think they are great, she thinks they are great and now wants a black pair.... Anyway a pic is attached and a thanks to all who helped...

Of course its fake...I've never worked in an office where anyone uses their own milk for tea and coffee!

RIP John Peel...absolute legend...

This just sounds like a bad excuse to satisfy a fetish.

Just looked up on the Bebe site and there are on there...looks like the site stock changes frequently as they were not on there yesterday! :@) Anyway no stock of the bone and black combo...but enquiry has been made! Thanks to all for the help

I thought it was best place here for this post, however if the mods wish to move, I have now problem with that! I saw these following a link off one of the threads on here and wondered if anyone would be able to ID the shoes, know who the designer is, or even know where to get them? Thanks!

I dont belive it would help as there are countless ebayers selling stuff cheap with no service, A simplemwebsite pointing folk who have the time and money to visit the retail shop is all that is needed.

They know where we are, I am sure they will reply here soon.

Besides which the time involved in managing an ebay on line shop PLUS your day to day work (be it running Peachy shoes) is indeed not a task I would begrudge upon anyone.

Selling one or two items on Ebay is ok, selling 20? Think of all the trips to the Post Office. The novelty will soon wear off....quickly.

Lets not forget that the owners may be content with the current rate of demand.

As Nigel says, they know the forum is here....

The shop has a page on MySpace IIRC

My girlfriend decorates the house with her shoes too.... normally she leaves them on the second step at the bottom of the stairs so that I normally find them when I walk down the stairs first thing early in the morning...by standing on them in the dark. If its not her shoes it normally her handbags....where in this situation I dont step on them, my ankle is usually wrapped around the strap :@) She would be great at making booby traps.

I would like to see that!

as for goldfrapp, tough luck me old fruit, she's a Bristol girl.

loverly.

Thats alright with me!

<--Check location! :@D

A). Why would you being gay even factor into this conversation?

. Why should it be obvious to us that you are gay?

C) What have they done to a perfectly good Goldfrapp track?!....Alison Goldfrapp

Looks like someone had some left over parts.

"Bitsa-Boots" ;@)

No dress code so technically anything goes!

She looks far more than fine to me...

My girlfriend has two pairs of boots from Duo, one pair are only worn on occasions and havnt worn. The other pair she has worn alot and generally are ok. The only problem with them she has found is that the zip liner (?) on the inside of the boot, no matter how careful you were ALWAYS somehow jammed in the zip...even if you ran your finger down the zip when zipping up. Duo wernt exactly helpful when we asked them to look at them (which even included a member of the shop staff zipping up the boots on GF and us going for a walk for 20 mins...jammed zip- no exchange offered), that said we've been back and the GF has her eyes set on more. Recommend a visit to Bath prior to buying. Noticed more stores are opening....

Gina They look fab..but where are they on your site...I cant see them?

How is it you've pulled a fine pair of shoes out and yet Snoopy obviously has found something more interesting in the safe?!

and mine....
