ShockQueen Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 Doing the skirt thing definitely takes more to be able to do than anything else because it's so "out there in their faces". More power to you though, Heel-Lover! Congrats on being able to pull it off! SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!
ShockQueen Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 did nobody wear any heels to work? I've been wearing my Cloudwalkers ankle boots every day to work since the day they came in the mail - I love them that much! SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!
mackman69 Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 i wear boots like in my avatar to work most everyday when its dry so the heels dont slip in the ground but if its wet i wear some knee high boots with a 4'' wedge heel driving.
Thighboots2 Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 Jamie, I wear anything between 2.5" - 3.75" block or cuban heels to work every day. It is rare that I wear anything approaching the normal 1" gents heel and has been so now for nearly 2 years. Simon. Are you confusing me with someone who gives a damn?
Dawn HH Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 More power to you, Thighboots2. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
Amanda Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 I'm wearing Blue Vivienne Westwood Mary Jane pumps. I might wear them again tomorrow that'll save me posting when I should be working
Amanda Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 Hey I have some of those pumps in both Black and Tan. Comfy Glamour shoes, I love them. Wore these shoes today from Office with a matching top and another tight black skirt.
ericge Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Wearing these wedges with knee length khaki skirt, white oxford and navy half sleeve cardigan.
Dawn HH Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 With or without hose? Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
ericge Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Always without hose. I seldom wear open toed shoes with hose.
Dawn HH Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Ericge:-) I always wear hose or pantyhose. Otherwise I stick to my shoes and don't care for the feeling. My opinion only. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
raymond.nl Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 I've been wearing a 3" tapered heel (boots) to work for two weeks now. Didn't get any comments the first few days so decided to ask for feedback. Secretary had noticed and thinks they look good; business partner (female; we go way back) was primarily surprised, but said it's OK. When I wore a different pair the next day she immediately noticed and joked about it (all in good fun). So approximately one year after my first heeling experience everybody knows and is cool about it. Who'd have thunk?!?
Bad_Robot Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 All you guys are so lucky to have a choice in what shoes or boots you wear to work....at my work you have to wear regulation steel toe cap safty boots so I don't get the chance to even try to Heel at work :-((
roniheels Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 I have a part-time job at one of our branch libraries. Many nights I work alone after a certain time. I do much walking as I do restocking of books, CDs, and DVDs. One night after everyone had left, I put on my Femme Fetiche 6.5" high heels with 1.5" platforms and finished my work that evening in those shoes. I had fun working in them even though no one saw me wearing them.
Bluegrassptp Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I'm in the same boat as Bad_Robot. I have to wear OSHA regulated boots too . Hey, maybe I could invent a steel toe pump! I have been Banned for emailing abuse to tech when he tried to help me.
Maximilian Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 I wear a splendid pair of black leather, 1 inch steel toe CSA approved work boots made by Dakota, a haut couture industrial boot brand :-)
bobgbmx Posted April 8, 2011 Posted April 8, 2011 Well, good for you!!! It's nice to hear from a female!!!
eoneleg Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Depending on my outfit, I wear a pump or sandal with four-inch, usually a stiletto heel. I am in a warm climate and thrilled to be able to wear a very open sandal year round. E
Histiletto Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 HI! eoneleg You must be a southwestern or a Texas gal. These are the only areas that I perceive to be dry and warm enough to wear sandals or pumps all the time. I kind of envy your climate choices. Of course, when it is possible, I would visit the higher elevations of pine trees and mountain streams just to break the monotony and breathe the fresh evergreen scented air. On the other hand, the air is so sweet after a desert rain has cleared the dust and opened the fragrance of the desert foliage.
christine_c9 Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 I have been working as an assistant Document Controller at a mining refinery site for the last 5 months and we are not allowed to wear heels to work because "Safety is the number one priority" ... and even though I have never had to leave the main admin building since I have been there it seems heels are not safe ... maybe because guys will bump into walls or fall over things because they are looking at the heels and not where they are going :-) We are not even allowed to use a mobile phone unless standing still or sitting down. But I always take heels with me and have often just put them on in the motel room in the evening and a few times have gone to the motel restaurant for dinner just so I could wear my heels 'out' then but it is sort of a little scary being in a restaurant at a table by yourself (but the heels help add confidence). Christine.
john boy Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 you go roz wish i was there in peason to see,send pics.
christine_c9 Posted May 6, 2011 Posted May 6, 2011 I will be going in to work in the city in the Central Park building for two days next week (Mon and Tues) and the thought of getting to wear heels in an office for a change (I normally work on site and have to wear safety boots) is exciting. I can't wait. It is basically two days of training so I will be stuck in a training room most of the time but there are morning and afternoon breaks and a 1 hour lunch break where I can go down and get coffee and lunch. It is autumn here but not cold. Days are 25C. Trying to decide if to wear jeans, which sort of seems more correct for just training, or a skirt and then I can work out which heels to wear. It is Saturday tomorrow and I am going over to the Galleria in Morley to see what new heels are around. If I buy somehing then that might help me make up my mind about jeans or skirt. But anyway ... excited about getting to wear heels into the city again even if it is only for two days. Christine.
SleekHeels Posted May 6, 2011 Posted May 6, 2011 Wow, if I had that to look forward to I'd be so excited too. Enjoy! And do let us know what outfits/shoes you pick... it's great that it's two days so you can try two looks. I remember once I went on a training course and the girls went shoe-shopping at lunchtime. I wished I could've gone with them and we could all have worn our new heels for the rest of the day, that would be so cool. If you like it, wear it.
barbara Posted May 6, 2011 Posted May 6, 2011 I finally pulled out some of my sandals, Its been unseasonalbly cool and wet here.Today I wore a pair of strappy black 4 inch heels. Its nice to get your feet into the sunshine.
eoneleg Posted May 6, 2011 Posted May 6, 2011 Most anything with a four-inch heel except "stripper" platforms or something with a lot of ornamentation. I am in a warm climate so I can enjoy a nice sandal year-round as well.
bootsforme Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 Can't wear anything other than very conservative clothes where I work, which generally means not wearing anything even slightly artistic, snazzy, or different. So it's dress shoes for me, unfortunately.
sharon Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 patent black 5 inch pointed stiletto courts teamed up with a smart short black dress, always looks smart and adds that pinch of spice . shaz
borg Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 I finally pulled out some of my sandals, Its been unseasonalbly cool and wet here.Today I wore a pair of strappy black 4 inch heels. Its nice to get your feet into the sunshine. Sounds like the pacific northwest where we have had one of the coldest springs on record. No sandals for me yet this year.
