Saxone Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Looked out of the window at 6:00am this morning and was greeted by a thick layer of snow that had fallen in the night. Just thinking about the ladies looking at the snow and wondering about what footwear to put on today. If you normally wear heels to work would you change on a day like this? Did a bit of Christmas shopping this afternoon and there were a few stilettos to be seen but the in thing seemed to be snazzy wellington boots in bright colours with floral patterns. Still managed to slip on the ice in my steel toe cap work shoes with thick tread and land on my bottom lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 In true Cinnamon style, I put my Lady Page Loubous on and made sure I was driven door to door so as not to get them dirty. I don't think a little snow should ruin a good outfit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roniheels Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I wear high heeled boots in the snow. They are a challenge to walk in the snow in them and they keep my feet warm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vector Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I think most would find stilettos in the snow safe as they tend to penetrate the snow like a gripper spike and give good traction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think a little snow should ruin a good outfit Very classy Cin, exactly how a lady wearing Louboutins should be treated! Honestly a girl can't have too many shoes!

Saxone Posted December 19, 2009 Author Share Posted December 19, 2009 Check out the song 'Kayleigh' by the band Marillion, you can find it on youtube. There is a line in the song related to this topic. Who will be the first to find it and post in on here? Just for fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 "Dancing in stilettos in the snow" I think the line is. From the album "misplaced childhood parts 1 and 2" I posted last year of one tale of following a young lady in the snow and how well she travelled.

Guest Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 And the full lyrics Do you remember, chalk hearts melting on a playground wall? Do you remember, dawn escaped from moonwashed college halls? Do you remember, the cherry blossom in the market square? Do you remember, I thought it was confetti in our hair By the way didn't I break your heart? Please excuse me, I never meant to break your heart. So sorry I never meant to break your heart. But you broke mine. Kayleigh is it too late to say I'm sorry. Kayleigh could we get it together again. I can't go on pretending that it came to a natural end. Kayleigh I never thought I'd miss you, and Kayleigh I'd hoped that we'd always be friends. We said our love would last forever, so how did it come to this bitter end. Do you remember, barefoot on the lawn with shooting stars Do you remember, loving on the floor in Belsize Park Do you remember, dancing in stilettos in the snow Do you remember, you never understood I had to go. By the way, didn't I break your heart ? Please excuse me I never meant to break your heart So sorry, I never meant to break your heart, But you broke mine. Kayleigh, I just want to say I'm sorry, but Kayleigh I'm too scared to pick up the phone. To find you've found another lover to patch up our broken home. Kayleigh, I'm still trying to write that love song, Kayleigh it's more important to me now you're gone. Maybe it'll prove that we were right Or it will prove that I was wrong. Thanks and acknowledgements to Lyrics007 website. I've always loved the words of the song and the way it's sung. There is that question, is she really there or is it that he is imagining her there listening. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxone Posted December 19, 2009 Author Share Posted December 19, 2009 Thats the one Al, well done. I wonder what the song writer was thinking when writing the lyrics to this song? Maybe a secret member of High Heel place now, hmmm..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwhite44 Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 I have a pair of ankle boots with a "leather upper". Would they be safe to wear in the snow? Don't want to damage them - at 4 5/8" heel, it's probably the highest heel I'll ever find in my size (sz 13). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vector Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Depends. If they have been treated with mink oil or silicone spray, they should be safe from the moisture (check the directions/warnings on the label). However, they could damaged from any ice melting product (salt, calcium chloride, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 To my knowledge it's only suede that's a major no no when it comes to snow... saying that, I'd not put any of my python/fur/fabric etc anywhere near the snow either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn HH Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 I only wear leather boots in the snow. When I'm finished wearing them, I thoroughly wash them in a warm water soapy solution to get the dirt and salt off of them. Then I dry them completely and let them sit for a day and then put a coat of polish on them if needed. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!

Rockpup Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I've grown fond of Tecnica's Moon Boots I know they are bulky, and a bit odd, but they are comfie and when the snow iced over at the inlaws they had plenty of traction and were very warm. I've also worn them here on the motorcycle when it's in the 30's. hehe (formerly known as "JimC") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
