Mr. X's travels


Mr. X

Recommended Posts

I also like the black and white combo. I wear black and white often in the summer. I also reverse the colors with black jeans and white polo shirt with my Naturalizer white open toe mules with a 3" block heel for that combo, I recently wore this combo and was showing off my red polished toes. Had a couple of compliments from cashiers at Walgreen's and a supermarket.

Keep on posting those pictures.

Thanks for the tip. I never thought of reversing the colours.

Good outfits MR X.I prefer the blue jeans but both look good.You shouldve said to someone at the store you want to speak to the sales girl X :irked:

Actually, she was the only one working at the time. That is usually the case at this particular store. Especially in the mornings, when I like to frequent, because it is less busy.

Today was a good day to do some traveling. With the weather getting a little cooler these days, I decided to take my ankle boots for a spin. Today I wore a white dress shirt under a black jacket. Down below I wore jeans and my "Aldo" ankle boots. And I wore my shoulder bag which also kinda looks like a camera bag I had one of my better outings, as I will describe.

Firstly, I did the few errands that I had planned. Then I basically spent the rest of my time out window shopping and visiting some of my favorite stores, including "Future Shop", my home away from home! It is the Canadian version of Best Buy. Even if I don't buy anything I am happy walking out of there.

Next was lunch. I went up the road to Quizno's. I was in luck because they had a new pulled pork sub that looked delicious. And was it ever. Even though it was a little messy, it comes highly recommended by yours truly. Not only did I have a tasty lunch, but a few nicely dressed and easy on the eyes ladies walk into the joint while I was chowing down. Bonus!

Afterwards, I decided to check out one of the new shoe shops in town. I was in there once before. It is a little more upscale. It even has "boutique" in the name. It has a 5th Ave feel to it. I would never buy anything there though. You are hard pressed to find any shoes or boots there for under $100. They carry lots of Steve Madden, BCBG, etc. It doesn't hurt to window shop though. Plus the young salesgirl who was working their the first time was a "looker"! I walked in and to my surprise, she was working again. I could only see her face behind the counter, but she looked great. I don't know if she remembered me or not. As I said, I was only in there once before. And this is were my days really starts to get good!

She greeted me from behind the counter as I began to look around. Their floors are "marble" like. So there was no hiding the sound of my heels in there. She gave me the usual rundown of current sales and such as she did her computer work. Now I am estimating this girl to be no more than 110 pounds. Then she came out from behind the counter to go to the back for a moment. And that is when my jaw literally hit the floor. She had on beautiful high heels which I heard from the floors. And she had on a very short mini skirt which showed off her incredible legs. So not only was this girl facially good looking. She also possessed many of the other qualities prized by the superficial male......lol The whole time I was looking around I had so many unnatural though running through my head...lol A few of their shoe displays allow you a view behind there counter where she was a lot. So lets just say I browsed at those shoes just a little bit longer. Plus her back was turned to me while she wrapped up in her computer work. So I couldn't help snapping a couple of quick shots.

I actually did finally decide to try on a pair of shoes. They were a nude pair of Steve Madden pumps marked down to $95. They looked good except for the hideous platform on them. I had no intention on purchasing them but I decided to try them on so the sales girl would get comfortable with me trying on heels for future visits. Not that that was going to be a problem to begin with. She was treating me like any other customer. Plus the thought of wearing heels in front of her the way she was dressed, was kind of intriguing. Plus I decided to try them on so I could spend a bit more time in the store, and see her parade around in her sexy little outfit....lol She came from the back and handed me the shoes. She mentioned that she wanted the same pair but they sold out of her size quickly. I told her I was not really a platform fan. I put them on and went to the mirror. She asked me how they fit? I told her they fit well, which they did! But they still looked awful. At this point 2 older ladies walked in and her attention got diverted from me to them. I decided this was my cue to exit. I removed the shoes and put them on the counter. She asked if I was going to take them? I politely said no and thanked her for her time and help. Even if I don't buy anything I will definitely be going back there again...lol I was flying high at this point.

I decided to go to the local casino and try my luck. I had planned to go anyhow. I usually don't go in heels though. You usually end up running into someone you know there. Today I got luck though. I couldn't have been in there more than an hour. Not only did I not get recognized, but I walked out $100 richer! Now if only all my future outings can be this enjoyable. I will be a happy man(in heels of course). Thanks for listening or reading!

I agree on those Steve Madden platform pumps. Still need someome to explain to me, if it was between 4" heel, flat sole, and 5" heel, 1"+ platform, why they'd pick the platform. Great account (and pictures) of your outing. I'm guessing it won't be the last time you go back to that store :)

Sounds like you have a pair of lucky boots.

Thanks for the post. Sounds like you had a grand time. Next time try a pair of knee highs (or higher) over the jeans. I hope you're not offended that the first of your attached picture that I looked was the third one.

I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.

MrX Sounds like you had a good time on your window-shopping day! It's always nice to check out new stores and meet new people. I have this observation for you to consider. You remarked that it seemed important that the woman in the store see you trying on heels and that you noticed she indeed treated like any other customer. How would she react if she knew you were snapping her photo and then posting it on the internet? Someone who knows her well might come stumble upon it (stuff gets copied and pasted all the time) here or elsewhere and wonder what's going on. I would never take anyone's picture without their knowledge inside a store and post it. I know the current level of technology allows it but this is where a judgment call has to be made. If this girl's father, brother, or boyfriend had been in the store and seen you then you may not have gotten out of there with the same number of teeth. More stores than ever have cameras or simply back rooms from which they can see everything. It is food for thought. After all, you want to go back to the store right? Besides, the very way you were dressed suggests you wanted to blend in as you went about your day but snapping photos like that may have ruined your day. I know this might not sit well with you but I'd rather see you enjoy your outings and not got into a trick bag. Keep traveling and telling us about it. Treat all the people in those travels the way YOU would want to be treated and you should never have any trouble. HappyinHeels:wave:

Not sure if I can explain why but I can say that some people like me are more attracted to platforms than flats or single soles.All my heels and boots have between 1" and 2" platforms.Each to his own I guess :)

Great outing MR.X, glad that you enjoyed it and didnt get negative reactions.Becarefull not to fall into a gambling pit ok?:)

Nice outfit and great outing Mr. X. Well done !

Can I make you a suggestion ?

You may want to ask the mods to remove the picture

of the salesgirl from your post as soon as possible.

This would reduce the risk of it being posted somewhere else on the Internet.

The picture showing the shoes is OK since no one could recognize her...

That is sound advice. We were defintely the only ones in the store though. You can touch the walls from the middle of the store that place is so small....lol

MrX- Thanks for taking the advice to heart! I don't want to hear that any of us had our day ruined by snapping photos of people without their permission. We do, after all, just want to accepted and treated like any other customer. I didn't know how photos got removed but now I do. danielp6406- Thanks for the suggestion and explanation on how to remove a photo as I was not aware of it. I think the girl and MrX are both better off. Je te remercie! HappyinHeels:wave:

Another day, another outing. I had a couple of errands to run. Other than that I just felt like window shopping. I can't tell you how long it took me to decide on something to wear. The problem was the weather. In the morning when I began it was around 10 degrees. But by mid afternoon it was to be around 25 degrees. And let me tell you it is quite warm as I write this. I finally decided to just go with an afternoon outfit. I really wanted to try out some boots. But that would have required a 2nd outfit for later in the day. My outfit of choice was pretty basic. beige/brown top, blue jeans, and 2 tone brown peep toe stilettos.The day went off without a hitch. And I had a good time. Enjoy a couple of pics. The outfit I wore and of the shoes.

Mr. X,

Very nice outfit and pretty high heels. Is it really that cold already where you are at? Where I live, it looked like Autumn was finally here. But today it got up to 90 degrees. The high yesterday was 70. Oh well, I'm happy you had a nice outing and many more good outings to you!

Mr. X,

Yes it is Roniheels. Welcome to Canada! We have already had some some minus temperatures overnight. Like the saying goes. If you need to use your heater in the same day as your air conditioner, you just might be from Canada...lol.

Perhaps he's using that new-fangled thing called centigrade that they seem to use in most countries now. Most inconvenient, when we all know that water freezes at 32 degrees. The only time the new system is right is at minus 40, and I wouldn't want to venture far in heels at that temperature.

I keep forgetting most places use fahrenheit. But here in Canada we use Celsius. So my temperatures that I mentioned(10 and 25) translate to about 50 to 70 degrees fahrenheit. Here is an easy way to convert to either or. For celsius to fahrenheit you double it and add 30. So 10 celsius would be about 50 fahrenheit. And to go from fahrenheit to celsius you half it and minus 30. So 80 fahrenheit would be about 25 celsius.

I tried on a few outfits before ultimately settling on this one.

-black ankle boots

-white denim/khakish pants

-plain red t shirt

-black jacket

-smaller camera type bag/carry all(rarely leave home without it now)

Here are 2 pics of the outfit. One with the bag, and one without. Comments and suggestions for improvement are always welcome.

Love the outfit Mr. X! Like the splash of color with the red tee. Looking sharp.

That's a great looking outfit Mr X. I have a pair of white jeans and I've yet to wear them in public, but you've inspired me to give them an outing, perhaps once we get some spring-like weather. I think that lighter trousers and a darker top can help to rebalance the wider shoulders and narrower hips that the average male figure has, and you don't look at all top-heavy with those heels. The only thing I might try adding to your outfit is a black belt perhaps.

If you like it, wear it.

Very nice outfits Mr. X. I , just love your color choices in those outfits. The only comment that I want to make is "It's a little early to wear white pants". I have some winter white or string colored Dockers pants that I wear throughout the winter, but I still like your color combinations! Keep up the posts.

Happy Heeling,

I have done some travelling here and there lately. But nothing too serious, until today. The weather was nice, and I had a day off. I had a few errands to run. But once those were out of the way it was all about Mr. X. I decided to hit up some of my favorite places here in town for a little window shopping. This included 2 shoe stores here in town. I did not buy anything, nor did I try anything on at either store. It was still enjoyable though. The day went off without a hitch and i really enjoyed myself. Now on to the outfit and pics.

Most of my travelling usually involves heeled boots of some kind. I think today may have been my first serious bit of travelling wearing pumps. My outfit was also a little outside my "zone". I had next to no article of "male" clothing on.

For today I choose a white dress shirt, black blazer, blue jeans, and these shoes, which are a recent addition to my collection. I mentioned them on here before.

And here is the final outcome in pic form. Enjoy! Comments and syggestions are always welcome.

Well done, Mr. X! Cool looking shoes! In my book, you can NEVER go wrong with the basic black pump which is always in fashion!

I agree! I have yet to do an outing with my pumps on full display, but I can see doing that in the near future. I have some skinny jeans that I have been wearing but not with my pumps. But that combination is killer!
