  1. Well I mean, they're for babies 0-6 months old. I don't know of any baby that has walked before 10 months. That's far different from the clothes for kids just past toddler age, what with bellies out and words printed on the backside (obviously to draw eyes there) and everything else... even some of the shoes being made in girls' sizes can be hell on their still-developing ankles and lower joints. These, by comparison, are harmless - socially and developmentally.

  2. I'm my opinion it doesn't matter who the clothes were designed for. I was only appealing for an end to baggy jeans, t shirts and stilettos.

    Use your imagination. Read some style magazines (both men's and women's) and have a play.

    There are loads of fashion websites. Anyone seen Bryan boy? Or Style Bubble

    There are loads of crazy high fashion looks on them but there's also some gold.

    The possibilities are endless. Here's a link to start you off... loads of Boy meets Girl stuff. Flick throught the gallery.

    It's only some clothes after all.

    Enjoy yourselves,

    Ben

    Fashion magazines, while fun to read, point to nothing I'd expect to see on most women anytime soon, let alone men. I'd be more prone to mimic the ideas posed by members here like kneehighs and fashionablefun. I have a fairly limited budget, so most of my spending has to be done within the constructs of my finances. Therefore, I find things that I already have and try to properly incorporate women's shoes into the look.

  3. I just had a good response. This story involves two women. One of whom I consider a sister, we'll call her Kelly. Kelly has a friend who is interested in me. We'll call this friend Myra.

    So, Myra and I had been talking recently and I revealed how I do a quick, 20-minute routine working out in stilettos (I do). She kept on mentioning "scary" in her responses, which I always countered with, "But harmless." Eventually she asked if she'd someday see me randomly in ladies shoes, so I agreed to break her in on the idea.

    Yesterday I agreed to go visit her. Since Kelly was also going to be over (Kelly saw my heels on Halloween), I figured I'd wear those same shoes. I got to the house, and Myra didn't even notice until I pointed it out. Kelly didn't notice until Myra pointed it out to her. So then they started asking if my feet were hurting, where I got em, why I do it, etc. I answered them truthfully and I could see both of them becoming more comfortable with the idea.

    Then I got the idea, maybe we should go out to a bar that we like.

    Myra and Kelly, in unison, ask if I brought a backup pair of shoes. I didn't. Well, I did, but it was these:

    http://www.payless.com/Catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?&TLC=Womens&SLC=WomensStory&BLC=WomensPromoEspadrille&Width=Regular&ItemCode=59152&LotNumber=059960&Type=Adult&Popularity=658&DescriptiveColor=Black

    So we set out, got parked, and... sat there as Myra serously wondered if I was up to it. Kelly knew I was, so we shared an inside joke... we got out, and as we walked from the front patio to the bar, I could see several heads turn. Two guys at a table stopped talking, looked down, then jumped right back into their conversation trying to act as though they didn't notice.

    Once inside the bar, though, nobody noticed, or if they did they didn't say anything. The girls continued their questioning, I continued my answering.... this bar is pet-friendly, and a guy with a 175-lb. Great Dane brought his dog in. Suddenly, I'm jockeying for second-place in the "most attention" department... not that there was anything wrong with that. Kelly wanted to pet the dog and I was all too willing to accompany her. Still nothing.

    Then some guys showed up that they didn't want to see, including Myra's ex. Suddenly the mood shifted and I had to go to the restroom, but wasn't gonna move. Didn't want to cause anything that didn't need to be. They, however, invited themselves to join us.

    I got my release when they (guys) were trying to decide where to go next. Obviously, Myra's ex was looking pissed, I'm texting Myra trying to figure out how the hell I'm gonna escape, Kelly silently knows and sympathizes with both of us... so I say to them, "Decide where y'all are gonna go next, and we'll follow, but I need just a little longer to feel comfortable driving." They agreed and left the bar. I could've set records with the speed I dashed to the restroom at this point, heels and all. By the time I was done, they'd scattered to elsewhere... we got in the car, I changed shoes (they didn't know what I'd changed into), we went back to Myra's.

    The wedges make NO noise, so it was a while before either of them noticed I'd changed into another pair of women's shoes. They both agreed that I wear them well, asked about where I got them, etc etc etc... obviously the whole time, I'm scanning Myra, who's scanning me and adjusting to my look and how I'm sure it's different from anything she's seen. Eventually, after much conversation, we got sleepy, so we crashed...

    Myra had to work, so Kelly and I hung out for a spell before coming to my place. Kelly had to use my computer, so I tidied up while she did what she had to do. When we were ready to leave again, I changed into a diff. pair of jeans and my camouflage "Ha! Now You Can't See Me!" shirt. I pulled out the brown pair of the same shoes, and asked Kelly which I should wear. Rather than say, "Neither, you're at home, go put on some regular shoes," she actually suggested the brown ones! So I slipped them on, went to replace the black ones, and showed Kelly my collection of shoes (currently stored in one of those under-the-bed packaway bags). She again seemed receptive to the idea, then suggested we go bug Myra at work (she works at a shoe boutique, that tragically doesn't carry my size). Again, on the way there no comments or odd looks, and Myra appeared to be fully warmed up to the idea by this point.

    This is probably my biggest success yet. Avoided a potentially volatile situation, and warmed up two people to the idea of me in women's shoes. I'm glowing right now :thumbsup:

  4. Here's an outfit I put together for today. I didn't have much to do (just had to pick up something from a friend's place, stop at Payless to see what they had since I was near, maybe get gas which I wound up not doing anyway). I didn't wear the shoes into my friend's house, because there were several young kids there and I didn't have time or energy to explain why I had on the shoes I did, should the topic have come up. Additionally, I realised once more the difference between trying on heels while wearing them, versus trying them on in men's shoes. Since I'd have to be in and out of the shoes I wore there, anybody who came to my aisle would see them, and they'd see me trying on other women's shoes. This is two victories at once, since you can't really hide what you're doing and it's a potential icebreaker should someone want to chat you up. So to everyone that's gonna go shoe shopping, wear a pair of women's shoes into the store. By the time you've walked from your car to the storefront, your nerves will be gone. The second picture just shows off the shoes better. I'd need a real pair of capris if I were going to do that look.

  5. I like the flat sandals alot

    So do I... enough to have purchased them today, along with the brown wedges. 3 for 3, not bad :thumbsup: I'm about to wear the brown ones out now, actually. Not really going anywhere (just picking up something from a friend, I won't have to get out of the car) but I def. need to break them in.

  6. today I braved a downpour and bought these

    http://www.payless.com/Catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?&TLC=Womens&SLC=WomensStory&BLC=WomensPromoNatural&Width=Regular&ItemCode=59152&LotNumber=059960&Type=Adult&Popularity=857&DescriptiveColor=Black

    in size 13 medium (this is a RARE!! fit)

    and I'm thinking about going back tomorrow and getting them in the brown.

    I also saw these and contemplated picking them up

    thoughts? I know the style is taboo, but they have a little lift and look like they'd be fun for Independence Day celebrations.

  7. hey everyone im new here and ive loved high heels since i was 3 years old. I have about 30 pairs now and i wanted to know is it weird that a big brolic black cuban guy like me wearing high heels in public? i mean im not tryin to be racist or anything its just i would like to know from another's perspective, so can you guys let me know what you think?

    Hey, I'm also black (amongst other things, but I definitely pass the one drop rule) and enjoy wearing heels as well. Nothing wrong with it. I've found that the most consistent approval comes from middle-aged Caucasian women, although I've gotten nice compliments from people of all races. You can't really make it a class issue, a race issue, or anything like that. Some people are simply more open to the idea of men wearing heels than others. Most people either approve or are outwardly ambivalent, I've found in my experience.

  8. What makes you think I didn't?:thumbsup:

    This,

    I was thinking so hard about wearing some heels, but surprisingly enough, I couldn't decide what to wear! That and I wasn't feeling quite brave enough.

  9. Now, is it the chicken or the egg....

    Is it that high heels are giving you toned muscles or is it the toned muscles (and fitness including proper weight) that allow you to wear higher heels?

    I think having toned, fit legs in advance to wearing heels makes the experience easier. The mere physics of heel-wearing will work out pretty much all of the essential muscles, thus making one's legs more toned.

    The burn is no different than what you'd feel from doing all leg-based workouts at the gym. Next-day soreness is actually results.

  10. If your ex-wife is also your best friend, what kept you from wearing heels around her? I think my best friend (a female) was the second person who knew, that I didn't live with. My only regret about it was telling her so close to Hurricane Katrina, which I couldn't possibly plan for so I'm not too terribly upset.

  11. Before I had almost no discretion... if it came in my size and I liked it enough to try it on, I bought it if it fit well. This led to many purchases for which I'd slap myself if I could go back and do it. Now I pretty nuch only pick up styles that I could wear out with no major qualms. This means lower heels (anywhere from 2 to 4 inches is good for me, I don't really need 5" or more), better styles (no more faux wood open-toe bow-adorned wedge sandals), and obviously conservative colors (black or brown only).

  12. I'm in college and I wear heels. I rarely do at college just because of the mass amounts of walking required*, but I have done it, and most people are generally too caught up in their own affairs to make time to be snide. * - I usually do all of my classes either on Monday & Wednesday or Tuesday & Thursday. The campus where I attend school is small enough to walk everywhere, but not so big to where driving from point-to-point is never necessary.

  13. First off, hello and welcome to hhplace. Don't worry about finding a niche here; it will come in due time. For now, just enjoy yourself, read some topics, and CONTRIBUTE! Nothing you've said about yourself is out of the ordinary to us here. To answer your question though, some people do visit both. Using myself as an example, I primarily post in "For The Guys" and "For Everyone," because the topics are most relevant to me. I have experimented with cross-dressing enough to actively discuss those topics as well. And of course, the non-specific areas here aren't off-limits to anyone. Just keep careful watch on topics marked "For The Girls" and you're good to go. May your stay here be a lengthy one!
