I love the black sandals. That is a timeless style. Congratulations on finding a store "home".

I like. Thanks dude.

There are 1 million and one "Geteeer" pickers in Nashville (as the words of the song go). And, at least 30 times that number claiming a "close personal" relationship with Michael Jackson -- as can be attested to by the number of people the media have interviewed in order to get the "straight story."

I'm sorry you lost a great neighborhood role model that used to live near where you played baskedball. What have I said that isn't true? It's not that I think badly of him. I don't ever think about him much outside of the fact that he "was" an entertainment notable.

Look. It's like I said: each one of us is going to mourn his passing in their own way. My mourning him consists of noting that he died and wishing him well in where ever he winds up as well as wishing all the best to his family, children and those who loved him the most.

But, if you expect me to apologize for not bending over, facing the east and mooning "Never-Never Land" in homage to him, forget it.

Isn't is enough to for me to just say that I'm sad that he passed and that the world lost a very talented entertainer to which I never voluntairly listened to?

And, Dr. Shoe, I'm sincerely sorry about your loss of your Grandmother. If she was as big of an influence you as my matrenal Grandmother was on me, you surely will miss her as much as I miss mine. You have my deep- est condolences.

I am not a "worshipper" of Michael, Elvis or any other human than Jesus Christ. Yes, we've all experienced the loss of loved ones in our lives and that is my point. I am just as tired of the "news" overkill with all the misinformation and speculation as anyone else. I'd feel the same way if they were raking your loved one through the coals.

I have no expectations of you nor did I voice any so why the hostility, dude?

I'm here to talk about shoes so why don't we just drop this before you bust a gasket?

Bubba, don't be so hesitant. Tell us how you really feel about Michael... To me the loss is more personal. While I didn't know them personally I used to play basketball on their block. I knew about their talents before they were "discovered" by Motown. The way he has been exploited and slandered is tragic. He was no more eccentric than you or I and until his death he remained very child-like having never had the opportunity to have a normal childhood. You will find as time goes on that all the sensational prognostications are false and that he and his family have their business in order. He will rest in peace no matter your opinion or anyone else's for that matter. Peace. And enjoy your heeling.

I would just die for a pair to please my husband. Thanks!

That style and cut was popular back in the 80s. Deep cut v-throat and dips on the sides.

I enjoyed the article. The second paragraph and the last three really get to where I am about women and heels. At the gas station the other day I noticed a mature woman in a sundress and patent leather ballet flats and almost overfilled my gas tank. She was stunning in the simplicity of her outfit. When I think about it more mature women are going about in ballet flats and they look good in them.

I'd be interested in getting to know guys like me who enjoy feminine footwear. Before the internet I felt very much alone in that I didn't know any straight guys who like heels.

Platforms don't do it for me. They are so far away from the shape of a natural foot. A single sole no matter the heel height is what does it for me, a shoe that compliments the foot, not disguising it.

I have a couple of pairs of Ballet style flats that I keep in the cars for driving.

I hung onto my wellies until about 2 years ago. I loathed throwing them out for sentimental reasons but they were just too uncomfortable for me to walk in anymore and seemed to be of more use to spiders.

So, I've not a lot to write about flats.

Both of my pairs are inexpensive, both have bows on them. Neither of which would I want to be seen stepping out of my car in. (although I almost have before now).

Perhaps I'll revisit this thread in a few years time once I've trained my feet to wear them again.

When I expect to have hundreds of pairs and plenty to say.

Until then....what is there to say about them?, they're flat...like leftover champagne in the morning, a car tire on your holiday or a dinner party to which you invited all the wrong people.

There's some who like leftover champagne and I'm one of them. I would relish seeing you in your flats if only while driving the car. May not float your boat but mine is rising just thinking about it.

:-) I really missed your comments

Now THAT might cause me to miss a flight!!

Great pics. Nice tiny feet in very high heels. So sexy.

Shoes are "ooooookaaaaayyyy" ish, but not so sure about the feet inside them? lol

I wear heels for the way they make me feel not for the way I look. I like the shoes, they look comfortable and sexy.

Gina, you really got me with the strappy pumps even though you already had me with the sandals.

So, under steady influence of this forum (and bunch of very nice private messages from guys on this forum) I really started thinking about wearing heels:w00t2: Well, amazing thing is that I went on zappos just to browse I saw them... Oh my! IN MY SIZE! (Apparently even God wants me to wear heels, because this is amazing fluk) So this type of shoe I'm very obsessed with http://www.zappos.com/product/7341260/color/72 Without any hesitation, I've ordered (the last or only pair in size 13!) I didn't even care that heel size is 3 3/4" not exactly 4, but definately not 3. Didn't even care that I'll be

6'6 3/4" in them:) I wanted them badly. I barely could wait till they come (zappos is fast, really fast. But wasn't fast enough for me at that moment:smile:). Finally I got them. Reviews said this shoe runs smaller and suggest to buy one size larger... Well, there was no size larger for me. But when they came. Beautiful, sexy, stylish, classy... Mmmm... I put them on, and they fit perfectly. Well, that just added more happyness and excitement. I walked around the house, strangly didn't have any problems walking in them. Not at all. Immediatelly I felt height difference, I wasn't tall enough to reach ceiling fan with my head, but I did that in heels:clap: When I went shopping in them the same day, I've learned that walking in heels on carpet and on pavement are totally different things, I felt ever little rock on the ground, which I'm not used to, because 90% of the time I wear sneakers. Wearing heels I felt amazing thing: my walk has changed. Having really long legs I take wide steps, which makes my walk sort of boyish, thats the reason I almost never wear skirts. But in heels I couldn't take wide steps, I felt so feminine in them! Later in the mall I decided to get cute top and skirt and try something I haven't tried before (my friend also encoraged me, because she invided me to the party next day. I hate parties, but I went to this one, because wanted to see how long I can walk in heels)

First day in heels was good. No muscle pain, no back pain... Wearing heels isn't that hard! However next day after spending in heels 10am-3am I got huge blister on the bottom of my foot so I can't walk now:) My friend was proud of me, said I looked gorgeous and at that party I'll definately will find a boyfriend (she has mania to find me a bf) I got bunch of compliments that day, unfortunately they all came for girls, guys sort of avoided me. Maybe bacause I was like this http://www.flickr.com/photos/lottadot/112402914/ Very towering over people. I could see the top of everyone's heads... So there was a girl I've met at that party, she is very short. I mean something like 5'1" or less. She asked me a question (that was the question that was stopping me to wear high heels, actually) "Why do you wear high heels if you are so tall already?" Well before I tried high heels on I wouldn't be able to answer but after try them on... OMG!! I love them. But I desided to make a joke and answered "Why don't you wear high heels if you are so short?" Her reaction was... "This is not nice!" and then she walked away. First I felt like I was total bi**h, but then I thought about it and the question I have: why is it ok to tell a person "you are too tall don't wear heels", but not ok to say "you are too short start wearing heels"?

So right now I am not wearing high heels that blister hurts...

Sorry for long post, but I had to share these new feelings

I would have been like the guy in the picture in the black jacket but I would have hit on you. I LOVE tall women. And a tall woman in heels?, its like legs reaching up to heaven!

Those shoes must be custom-designed for Heidi to fit her toes. Sexy, freaky, not attractive, but maybe..... You get all these mixed-up feelings looking at them.

Was at the DMV yesterday and saw an interesting sight, a woman who had both limbs but was using a walker,,, and wearing heels!!

She did mention that she wore an 11 Wide.

I went back and re-viewed the video and reread the article but I didn't see or hear her mention her shoe size.

Has anyone come across a leg amputee on crutches wearing a sexy highheel.

Well I did yrsterday while out shopping with my wife at a local mall called the Glen.

She must have been mid to late 20s wearing a knee lenght skirt and a knee lenght boot with a 4inch heel.She used her crutches like she was a pro and moved with such a grace in her sexy boot.

If you Google "amputee love" you'll find a lot about this particular preference.

I applaud you for your courage and the tastefulness of your outfit. May you continue to enjoy. Being on the road can become very boring.

Better picture

Welcome Shoegirl. Its too bad you sell yourself short (pun intended) by not wearing heels. If you're concerned about not finding guys as tall or taller than you it is valid, although if you were to don some 5 inch heels the guys would be better able to judge if they match up. How do you feel about dating shorter guys? I have been fortunate to meet a lady who is 5 inches taller than me in her bare feet and has no problem wearing 3 inch heels when we are out together. We take pleasure and find amusement in others' reactions to seeing us together.

Some shoes aren't made for walking. My woman wouldn't need to take more than three steps in those shoes.

Here is a picture of Natasha. There is not a match on facial features to the androgyne.

How does anyone KNOW this is a woman? Do you have the model's name? I need some convincing on this one.

Dawn and Mickey, we send you our prayers. With His help you will survive and prosper.
