Children are more open to change. Only when they get to about 11 do they start to stick with what they know, this also includes any attitudes they have developed. Most do not welcome any kind of change until early 20's when they begin to realise that the world isn't the rosy place that they were led to believe. So they start making their own choices. occasionally, you get some that make decisions based on rebellion or an 'IN' thing that everyone is doing and they don't want to feel left behind. Most kids I've met will point and say "why do you wear girls shoes?", to which I reply "Who said they were only for girls?". starts to make them think a little When heel wearing becomes the 'IN' thing again, everyone especially the kids will want them

has it increased your popularity? and have you been invited to more parties due to your fashion choice?

I don't suppose that a picture of you in aforementioned ensemble is available. sound pretty cool

trying before buying is much more fun, even if it's only a pair of 4" sandals from a carboot. they only cost a pound, but gave the lasses a thrill by trying them on in their car at least it's easier to return a bad pair to the shoe if you try them first

No clucking from my end! Comes to something when the only "Freestyler" was Firefox. A pity that you couldn't get anyone to take a pic of you, just to show what a trendsetter you are Respect!

Working on an idea thrown in the air by Firefox, I caught and posted it

for those who wanted to know, but were afraid to ask

the first was Cinderella as shown by the Magic Mirror

second was in Lord Farquaads bedroom (sorry about the bad quality, I had to use my digital camera on the screen. will update pics when better screen grabs are available )

But who says that, one day, it won't be a large concern I hope it all goes very well for all of you.

If only! At least you have a secondary job that allows you full freedom in regards to your dress and appearance. The rest of us have to make do with when and whenever. I'm sure if she has a massive turnover due to your hard work and cheerful manner, then she probably could afford you. Then it's, WAHOO! Dress the way you want and get paid to do it!! Shades of the Four Yorkshire, "Oh, we used to dream of working in Goth store".

shoo, Shoe! sorry Dr.Shoe! it just came to mind

it would be rebellion, as they are pushing the boundaries that had fausted upon them. how many of us have done the same? push the envelope to breaking point? even playing truant was a type of rebellion! kids will attempt to do anything that their parents do or anything that their parents tell them NOT to do! aren't kids wonderful!

Obsession of Fashion! certainly feels like it when you still feel bad after having to wear grubby jeans and t-shirt all day, but I don't like crawling under my car with decent clothes or my heels on so it is dress good to feel good, and as you want to feel good it soon becomes obsession

Onward and upward! Nice to see you've got higher! Now,all you need to do is post loads more and get better shoes

Since this idea came up, I thought it best to continue it here. The idea is words that sound the same but are spelt differently or words that are spelt the same but have different meanings. ie. Cheque - Check Talk - Torque

I can get these items, but the down side is that I have to purchase several thousand of them at a time. May take me a while to sell them if I get any!

Sorry! I'm letting the side down Boring flat shoes! Been covering myself in grime while working on my car. Replacement window now in. Exhaust fixed and lights sorted. Wouldn't do all that in my heels now, would I?

Welcome Maryanne! As you have already gathered, we will make you very welcome, so don't be shy with your posts With you living in Melbourne, you'll be likely to bump into Inga on your travels Have fun! I'm sure you will!

wouldn't clear rubber stockings make your legs look like you've coated them in vaseline? I can see some of the potential, but also a problem if the weather gets warm. Pickled feet and legs on plain view :eek: but if you want to try it, then go right ahead would be interesting to see the result

Careful what you wish for, it may come true. On a more serious point, the idea would work. Take the boundaries away in the shopping area and the fashions may just take a more natural turn, instead of being force fed the same routine, some will choose to follow their own hearts. Should prove to be rather interesting!

I saw them as well! Very nice they were too! You must be another night owl to have seen that program

As I've already shown in another thread, a mini skirt or shorts look just as good as each other when worn with thigh highs. Sometime this year I'm going to fry some brains and wear the thigh highs down the street. Let's see what they have to say then

carbooting is a second hand market in a field where everything is sold from the back of your car. till is a cash register

the bigger miracle is that it hadn't been touched :eek:

(while carbooting) people who ask 'how much is it?' when the price is clearly marked and people who offer 50p for a £2 item
