RonC Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 I am totally bummed out that a heel meet is being held in my city, and I cannot be there, because I'll be out of town that week. My chance to heel and meet, and I am a no show.........that just sucks.
iloveboots Posted January 17, 2009 Author Posted January 17, 2009 Note...I am on vacation/out of the country until Feb 11/09. I won't have access to HHPlace until I return. David "Dress For Your Own Pleasure"
Bubba136 Posted January 17, 2009 Posted January 17, 2009 Can't you change your plans? Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
ChipsHH Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 I am totally bummed out that a heel meet is being held in my city, and I cannot be there, because I'll be out of town that week. My chance to heel and meet, and I am a no show.........that just sucks. Ditto here. I live many miles away from Chicago, and like it's right there within my grasp. Yet, I won't be able to make it unless I tell my cousin about my fetish AND ask her if she could take me there herself.... How bout those teenage years... Formally "HHDude"
RonC Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Bubba, I wish I could, but airplane/hotel reservations have been made and paid for, so that is not an option. Alas, woe is me!
Histiletto Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Is there any one attending who would like to cut some cost and share a room at the Seneca Hotel. I am flying in on the 25th and flying out on the 1st, so I'm figuring a stay of possibly 4 nights (Maybe 3 nights, depending). I understand the cost is $99 per room.
Bernheels Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 Hello to all, My partner will not be able to make it - but I will be staying overnight one night - the 27th at the Seneca. I have a suite with 2 queen size beds. If someone wants to share - send me a private. I love wearing heels and will have many pairs with me. I am open to adventure and looking for a good time that night. Send me a line if interested, Bernheels
Bernheels Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Well we just had a major issue with our car and I will not be able to attend this heel meet. I am very sad - but money has to go towards keeping me at my job. I will catch the next one. Would have been nice to make some new contacts - but that's the way things go. I have a room booked at the Seneca for one night on Friday. I will not cancel yet - if someone id interested - maybe we can transfer to your name. Hope someone takes pictures to share with the rest of us. Have a great time!! Bernheels
Histiletto Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Sorry that you have to cancel. I was looking forward to meeting you. I don't know if there will be pictures taken because of others privacy concerns. I hope someone can use the room at the Seneca for their night's stay. Take care and until next time, Happy Heelin'.
Bernheels Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Thanks for your kind words. I just have to take care of the home front 1st. Tough times these days. I hope there are others in Chicago area that will stay in touch here. I would like to meet others just for a casual stroll through the city during the day if possible. I travel and could meet when I am in town. Anyone have any ideas how to do this - without planning an overall meet? Hope to hear from you felloow healers! Bernheels
radiodave Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Sorry folks, but I'm going to have to cancel as well. Another commitment came up. Hope it goes well.

iloveboots Posted February 24, 2009 Author Posted February 24, 2009 FYI for those attending the Chicago meet. Skyscraper Heels (Gary) will be offering 10% discount to attendees and special appts for Sunday since he is normally closed. But he'd like to bring a good selection and have attendees show off some of them in the fashion show fashion show during the meet on friday, feb 27. Ms C has arranged for a professional photographer to be available for anyone who would like to have their heels immortalized. With privacy issues it would be by individual only though I would like to have everyone or as many as want to sit for a portrait of nothing but their heels for the hhplace website if you would be so inclined.

RachelTVHeels Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Well the big day is almost here! My jenni and I will be driving out to Chicago tomorrow (Friday). We'll not really morning people, so we'll probably get there mid-afternoon. We'll be staying tomorrow night in the area and probably heading back to Michigan about lunch time on Saturday. Would anyone like to meet up either day for anything? Dinner before the meet perhaps? We're probably going to make a trip to Skyscraper Heels. Even though they're vending at the meet, we've never been to the store and would like to check it out. We were thinking about maybe being touristy and going to the Sears Tower Skydeck too. Other ideas? Let us know! Jeff & Jenni
iloveboots Posted February 28, 2009 Author Posted February 28, 2009 After a very very frustrating travel day and ending up getting no further than when I started out...i.e. home, I am sadly not at the Chicago Meet! It was a winter disaster, a huge snow storm followed by flight chaos. Everyone is in the capable and warm hands of Ms C who I know will do an incredible job as host. Thank you Ms C! Hope everyone has an incredible time. *hugs* David "Dress For Your Own Pleasure"
Dr. Shoe Posted February 28, 2009 Posted February 28, 2009 Indeed! Graduate footwear designer able to advise and assist on modification and shoe making projects.
Kittyinboots Posted February 28, 2009 Posted February 28, 2009 Just got back from the Chicago, IL USA heel meet. It was nice meeting Ms C. and all the guests. Thanks to all the organizers for putting on this event. For me this was my longest outing in high heel boots. It felt good getting compliments on my boots and being able to enjoy a party in boots knowing that I was in a group that is accepting of a man wearing high heel boots in public. I wore my boots and riding jeans in my avatar. I hope they do this again next year.

Histiletto Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 I would like to strongly suggest that Heel Meets be scheduled for the warmer parts of the year instead of having to worry about freezing weather or having to bring a wardrobe to keep warm.
Dr. Shoe Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Well? No report? Graduate footwear designer able to advise and assist on modification and shoe making projects.
Maximilian Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 yeah, how was the party? Any pics? Surely someone who attended could give a more detailed report for us who didn't.
Kittyinboots Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Ms C., Could we get a count of how many people attended this event? I was also wondering how many of them were members of HHP. Since I left early as I was losing my voice that night, I was curious if anyone else popped in.
Kittyinboots Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 Here is my best recollection of Friday's heelmeet. I drove to Chicago since I live in the suburbs. It was held at a Chicago studio near their Chinatown district. Ms. C was our hostess and has friends from the domme fetish scene. The studio decor was predominantly a collection of dominatrix accessories and equipment, chains, whips, racks, etc. as the owner of the studio was a domme. The party itself went from 8pm to 1am CST, although I could only stay until 11pm since I was losing my voice that night. I did not meet a lot of members from HHP, maybe a few appeared after I left. Yet the friends from the domme fetish crowd filled up the studio enough to have a party atmosphere. I would guess anywhere from 20-40 people were there, but I can't be sure since people left and more showed up later. There was even a small tour group with a guide who was explaining some of the accessories that the dominatrix uses. Then they of course left after the tour was done. There was a rep from Skyscraper Heels in Chicago who brought several pairs of shoes and boots for guests to try on and buy. Some of the guests modeled the shoes/boots as the party progressed. This was my first social outing and my biggest outing in high heel boots. I wore a black dress shirt, and from my avatar, my blue riding jeans and tall brown high heel boots, topped off with a leather jacket. One of the guests even felt the leather on my boots and asked me to feel the leather on her boots as we discussed what materials and style of boots we prefer. My only goal was to enjoy a party wearing high heel boots. But not a bad idea to combine heelers with domme fetistists to increase overall attendance. But overall I had a nice time. I was comfortable wearing high heel boots in public, knowing that I was in a group that is accepting of a man wearing high heel boots.
iloveboots Posted March 6, 2009 Author Posted March 6, 2009 Thank you for the report kittyinBoots. Yes, the total attendance was 34. There were quite a few other HHPlace members who attended. David "Dress For Your Own Pleasure"
