  1. Tough question.

    1, I already have quite a few shoes of my dreams, mostly mj's and d-0rsey style but what I don't have is:

    MJ's, leather, 4 1/2 to 5" stacked or thick heel w/at least a 1" wide strap and maby a 1/4" to none platform. (blk).

    How about something like this?

  2. i was once watching regis and kelly in the morning and they were talking about some running marathon..the person who wins gets i think about $75,000 shopping spree for shoes......lool and then kelly started running in place with her heels, she was really excited talking about shoes.

    Here is a link to that segment, found on YouTube.com:

  3. Anyone ever heard of such a thing as a shoe strap extender? I've got a pair of these (white gloss, size 14) that would fit perfectly if the strap was an inch longer :thumbsup:

    Failing that, do you know anywhere I could get some made?

    I had the same problem a few years ago with a very similar pair of shoes.

    On mine, the buckle part was attached to the shoe with a short piece of elastic material. I had the shoe repair guy remove this and re-attach the buckle with a longer piece of elastic. It worked very well, and was not expensive at all. Good Luck.

  4. Burger King's $200 Burger

    Of all the restaurants that might offer a $200 truffle-laden burger on their menu Burger King is probably one of the last ones, if not the last one, that comes to mind. But believe it or not Burger King has launched a $200 hamburger called simply "The Burger" that features Wagyu beef, white truffles, Pata Negra ham slices, Cristal onion straws, Modena balsamic vinegar, lambs lettuce, pink Himalayan rock salt, organic white wine, and shallot-infused mayonnaise all served up on an Iranian saffron and white truffle dusted bun.

    That's quite a list of ingredients.

    "The Burger" will be on sale once per week in London and proceeds go to benefit the Help a London Child charity.

  5. Since it is rather appearant I am not very fashion oriented, and not wanting to look a fool when I go out on the town in my heels, I was hoping you more savvy folks here could help me out.

    In the process of getting more "style" clothes for myself and have some questions...

    1. I WANT to get nice pairs of straight/boot cut tight jeans (especially black) to wear my shoes with. I know they'd look better. Problem is, with my "breeder hips" and fat ass (for a guy), I have not been able to find any men's jeans like this to fit me, hence the far too baggy ones. Should I buy women's jeans? If so, how do I go about finding the right size? Any other pants recommendations?

    2. What kind of shirt would you recommend for someone with my build to wear with said jeans/slacks and stilettos? I would like to wear a nice button down, collared silk job, but will it make me look like a stuffed pepper?

    3. Any other heels you recommend besides blocky ones for me (I currently buy/wear stilettos)? I have seen wedges that I liked, but rarely thick heels...

    4. Beige collared shirt, beige trousers, "nude" stockings, dark brown sling-backs?? Work?

    5. I heard the term "stylist" bandied about. Where do you find yours? I'd rather the advice of people who don't just want to tell me what I want to hear...

    Thanks in advance!

    In my opinon, formed from my own experience...

    #1. Easy. Womens Pants/Jeans Are the Way to go. Go to any help your self type store. I started in Walmart myself. Find a nice pair of womens jeans and try them on. Try different styles and sizes utill you find the one you look best in.

    #2. Also easy. I wear the same type of shirts I have been wearing all along. Wear what you like, so you are most comfortable. If you will be thinking about your heels, you do not need to be worried about your shirt style too.

    #3. Again, my personal opinion. I like block heels for me. If you are comfortable in stilettos (as are many of our members here) wear them.

    #4. Sounds good to me.

    #5. I am my own LOL

    Just ask Kneehighs, he will tell you how wonderfully cooridinated I always am.

  6. But I can understand why guys would go to them because of the larger sizes available.

    My thoughts exactly. I believe a Lot of Guys would be buying better quality shoes if they were available in larger sizes. As we all know, most brands only go up to US 11 or European 41. Nine West knows that size 12's will sell, and seem to be offering more size 12's every year. Steve Madden even sneaks out a few size 12's once in a while.

  7. hi there all:smile: heres a type of sneaker that I plan to get by summer's end- tell what you all think of the style, please!

    Very Nice, I like them a lot.

    You see this type of show with a spike heel, I like this one much better.

    Get them before summer's-end so you can enjoy them all summer.

    Where did you find them?

  8. One evening, a man gave his tipsy secretary a ride home after an office party. His wife was prone to jealousy, so he didn't mention the incident to her. Later in the evening, he was driving his wife to a restaurant when he noticed a stiletto-heeled shoe half-hidden under the passenger seat.

    Gripped with terror, he took advantage of a moment when she wasn't looking to grab the shoe and throw it out of the window.

    The rest of the journey went well until they arrived at the restaurant.

    "That's strange," said his wife, looking a little agitated. "Have you seen my other shoe?"


  9. The Open Toe Shoe Pledge


    Alright Ladies, it's that time of the year again. Just a friendly reminder!! Please raise your big toes and repeat after me: (The Open Toed Shoe Pledge)...

    As a member of the Cute Girl Sisterhood, I pledge to follow the Rules when I wear sandals and other open-toe shoes:

    I promise to always wear sandals that fit. My toes will not hang over and touch the ground, nor will my heels spill over the backs. And the sides and tops of my feet will not pudge out between the straps.

    I will go polish-free or vow to keep the polish fresh, intact and chip-free. I will not cheat and just touch up my big toe.

    I will sand down any mounds of skin before they turn hard and yellow. I will shave the hairs off my big toe.

    I won't wear pantyhose even if my misinformed girlfriend, coworker, mother, sister tells me the toe seam really will stay under my toes if I tuck it there.

    If a strap breaks, I won't duct-tape, pin, glue or tuck it back into place hoping it will stay put. I will get my shoe fixed or toss it.

    I will not live in corn denial; rather I will lean on my good friend Dr. Scholl's if my feet need him.

    I will resist the urge to buy jelly shoes at Payless for the low, low price of $4.99 even if my feet are small enough to fit into the kids' sizes. This is out of concern for my safety, and the safety of others. No one can walk properly when standing in a pool of sweat and I would hate to take someone down with me as I fall and break my ankle.

    I will take my toe ring off toward the end of the day if my toes swell and begin to look like Vienna sausages.

    If I have been privy to the magic that is Foot Soup, I will share that knowledge and experience with the non-initiated.

    I will be brutally honest with my girlfriend/sister/coworker when she asks me if her feet are too ugly to wear sandals. Someone has to tell her that her toes are as long as my fingers and no sandal makes creepy feet look good.

    I will promise if I wear flip flops that I will ensure that they actually flip and flop, making the correct noise while walking and I will swear NOT to slide or drag my feet while wearing them.

    I will promise to go my local beauty school at least once per season and have a real pedicure (they are about $10 and worth EVERY penny).

    I will promise to throw away any white/off-white sandals that show signs of wear...nothing is tackier than dirty white sandals... Don't keep this to yourself - pass it on to other sisters.
