  1. I use to have really good luck at Goodwill and Value Village, but lately have not had the same.   I find them pretty ransacked at times and the line ups at the cash are ridiculous.  

    Where I’m at, several “upscale” consignment stores have popped up and they are all a pleasure to shop at.  I find many luck there, stuffs in better shape than you find at other thrift stores, and for the same or less price at times. 

  2. I have had similar experiences buying off FB marketplace.  I don’t normally disclose I’m a guy.  I find 4 out of 5 times people are pretty open, as they want to make a sale. Shoes are a pretty easy one to just try on.  It’s when you shop for clothes on there that I will disclose I’m a male.  I’d rather try on things before I buy them.

  4. This crappy weather is giving me the blues.  So, I thought I would try out a warmer weather outfit when the sun decides to warm things up.  

    I’ve wore this skirt before.  It’s from Suzy Shier.  It’s jean looking, but is stretchy cotton.  I wore it with a vneck tshirt.  This time, I opted for a male dress shirt.  I got two shoe options.  If anyone has some tips or anything, I would be open to that.  

    I’m sure someone will comment on the leg hair.  I’m not shaving it.  I’m embracing it!  The way I see it: I show that much leg on shorts, so what’s the difference?

  5. I haven’t been out shopping a bit, but I had the chance yesterday and today.  

    Yesterday I purchased these nude suede strappy heels from Aldo.  I was debating what pair to get, as they had several nude ones in my size.  I opted for the high 5” heel because, well, why not? :)   I normally shop at this store and have always had great service.  The two SA I have not seen before.  One was very standoffish, but the other was very helpful.  She really took the time to help me out  

    Today I grabbed these black strappy ones from Call It Spring   I don’t normally shop there, but was draw by the clearance sign.  I got these in a size smaller that I normally wear, but the length was good   Might need to stretch them a bit, but that’s not a big deal.  

    I’ve been looking for strappy pairs like this for a while.  I finally took the plunge!  Can’t wait to rock em.

    kneehighs. I think you have done a great service to men who wear heels. and a guy who wears heels in public is more of a man than a guy who hides it in his bedroom. at the age of 24. I made the right choice in not marrying or having a girlfriend, why. because wearing heels is just too much damn fun. a quota from sean connery on his retirement. I'm 30 now and my aim is to wear in public. and to have a huge collection of designer heels and boots to wear in public. and to have a large group of new friends to heel about in. I know that you think I am wrong to ditch relationships over heels. but women say that they have the right to wear what they want. well I want to wear what I want, so if it makes me selfish then so what. life is very short and you have look out for number one yourself. hope you post back.

    I agree with this statement!!!

  7. Congrats on your milestone!  I know I haven’t participated as much as I use to in this board, but when I see posts like this, it makes me feel like I need to pull my weight (or is it height? Lol).  Anyways, congrats again!

  8. Rainy day today, so I couldn't take a photo on my balcony.

    I bought a leather leggings from Balenciaga back in June 2014 and never managed to find the time to shorten it, which I finally did this morning.

    Personally, I always wanted to go out and about in an "all leather" outfit at some point in time (similar to this one), meaning biker jacket, leather leggings and cool heels. Okay... I didn't put on a biker jacket, but the leggings + wedges alone push the envelope very much IMHO.

    Funny and at the same time disturbing: Nobody really cared - as always these days in a big city.

     

    Wedges by Jil Sander, Leather Leggings by Balenciaga, Turtleneck sweater by a no-name online retailer, Dufflecoat by Burberry.

    Love this look!
