While many here would find the heels you are wearing here to be not high enough I think those are a great height to be attractive while giving some comfort. great choice

Back to A shaped heels. that shape was quite common in the mid to late 60's when my zest for heels really kicked in. some would also show a bit of toe cleavage which i also took a liking to. thanks for sharing the photos and sparking my memories!

Those heels look very comfortable I'd enjoy those as the heel height would be right in my range.

Those appear to be opaque, which seems to be considered acceptable in the fashion world. Personally, I think hose are fine with open shoes, but it is considered a faux pas in the fashion world. I grew up in the world when hose were always worn with dress shoes, whether they were open toe or sandals. It's mainly been in the last 15-20 years that hosiery and open shoes became a no-no.

I don't think anyone needs to be apologetic for wearing "shorter heels". For one thing, it is the current trend for footwear. Second, not all of us here follow the line of higher is better. Enjoy what you wear!

She had a 1 year on her back. But she thought the wedges were cute. The open air market takes place in the parking lot of a old shopping complex and the pavement is in very bad shape. I rarely see anybody else in any heels there.
Somehow I doubt her comment was confined to the wearing of heels at said market. However, the duties required as the mother of a young child could definitely curtail the heel height of a Mom's shoes. Chasing a toddler is better left to flats.

We were talking in line and she said "I just saw your wedges, wish I could wear wedges like that."
Ahh, the old wish I could wear those line. I know there are people that could not wear heels, my wife included. But that line comes out of the mouths of way too many people perfectly capable of wearing them. I find the statement mostly frustrating, especially coming from a woman.

I think red looks fine with all three. It is a classic nail color.

The wedges shown here are not a bad looking pair of shoes, and there are a couple others on their site. Is that first pair something they actually offered?

Wow, that is a lot of shoes that didn't get worn much. A bit sad that they didn't. It is unfortunate that you can try on a pair of shoes in store and walk around a bit and they seem to fit fine and feel good. But wear them for an hour or so and it's a different story. I know that many women have had the same experience, including my wife, who has bought in store or even on line and thought the shoes were fine, only to wear them once and find that they were uncomfortable. I'll admit that has happened to me even in men's shoes. That is a big number of shoes to own though!

Nice to see some posts from you again @HappyinHeels. Looking good.

Years ago I did a lot of housework while in heels. I miss those days.

They were a previously owned pair and are no longer available at retail, which is likely why there is no link with the photo. I think I paid $16 on Threadup. The heels are a bit on the low side for you @Jkrenzer . They are about 3.75 inches in this size 11 shoe. For being previously owned, they are in excellent condition - look they they were rarely worn.

I wear my heels everywhere, so I don't want what's on the bottom of the soles in my bed.
For sure Cali. And I'd add that it's not healthy for your feet as they need to be able to breathe and dry out as well. Just don't think it is a good idea.

There have been forum questions before as to how many shoes any of us had and my answer was around 125 at the time I first replied. Problem I never actually counted later on. I strongly suspect I have more than double that and really should have a sale sometime soon. I have two sets of kneehigh boots, 4 pairs of pumps, 2 pairs of ankle boots, and about 10 pairs of wedges which I have worn on multiple occasions and to various venues such as restaurants, theatres, shopping centres, a few outdoor weddings and parties, and just walking around in some urban/suburban setting.
HinH, did I misunderstand. You said you thought you might have over 200 pairs of heels, but state that you have 18 that you have actually worn out of the house. Is that correct?
-
I bought this pair on Threadup. Enzo Angiolini Sandria in size 11. They fit me pretty well and I think they will be comfortable, but given the style, it's unlikely that I will wear them out and about. I will enjoy them at home though.

Nice wearable sandals. I must say I am a bit surprised with the slap on the rump! Wouldn't have thought that was you! lol.

While I did get off the path a bit, the point I was trying to make is that there are options for men to experience the height of a heel without wearing a shoe intended for a woman, and would pretty much disguise the fact that a heel is being worn. @p1ng74, your choices are pretty much male styles but with a heel. Cowboy boots can somewhat offset the heel look. But chunky heel booties or oxfords with heels that extend to 4" or so remain pretty much a feminine style. Boots and shoes of that nature are available now as the block heel is in style. But should styles evolve again to something like the 1960's or mid-late 1980's, block heels would be near impossible to find, so if a heel was desired, it would most likely be a thin heels of some sort. If that were to happen (which I doubt, but it could), and only thin heels were available, would you guys that now only go for block heels still want to wear heels of that look?

It is rather difficult to see the heels for sure.

Oh yeah, and I fell down and cut my damn forehead.
Hopefully it was not because of heels? That would just give your wife more reasons to tell you that your heels are not great!
Who has bought some new shoes
