Booted Posted July 27, 2010 Posted July 27, 2010 I'm not really a high heel boots fan (booties and pumps and wedges are my thing), but I did just buy some delicious Via Spiga 'Christie' Riding boots as my fall/winter wardrobe staple. I can't wait to wear these with blazers, long tunic shirts/mini dresses (which you can't tell they are mini-dresses), Burberry trench coats...the possibilities are endless. Once I get them and try them on and measure the heel, I'll see about taking them to my local Russian cobbler to have the heel raised to 2". Kneehighs, Excellent selection. I've a pair as well.
YYZ Posted July 27, 2010 Posted July 27, 2010 I just bought a pair of these from Aldo! http://www.aldoshoes.com/us/clearance/womens-boots/tall/69856333-flolill/21 can't wait to get them!
Bubba136 Posted July 28, 2010 Posted July 28, 2010 If you are talking about the "LOLILL" style, they are a great looking pair of boots at a very attractive price. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
danielp6406 Posted July 28, 2010 Posted July 28, 2010 Ordered these boots from Aldo today... The store will receive them early next week (Can't wait !)
Guest Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 those are very good looking boots there, danielp6406, if I had the exrta $, I'd get a pair too!
wood&metal Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 Ordered these boots from Aldo today... The store will receive them early next week (Can't wait !) Spectacular!..Love em'! Never frown because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.
hh4evr1 Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 I think that i´m an addict too in buying boots in the summer! I´ve bought myself a nice pair of 5.5 inch heeled boots! I hope you like them! Tiago They are very nice. I nearly got a similar pair, but they didn't have the right size.
danielp6406 Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 Ordered these boots from Aldo today... The store will receive them early next week (Can't wait !) Thank you all for the positive comments ! The store called me telling me they received the boots. So I went to the store and tried them right away but guess what ? The ankle area is narrow and they don't have any side zipper. I cannot insert my feet in them pass the ankle... This is very unfortunate because they were so nice ! (They refund me) Now I seriously think about ordering the "Noren" model instead...
iloveboots Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 That is a real shame Daniel, those Boots from Aldo were really nice too. Cheers, David "Dress For Your Own Pleasure"
danielp6406 Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 That is a real shame Daniel, those Boots from Aldo were really nice too. Cheers, David Hello David :-) I agree it is a real shame. These boots were so nice. They were driving me crazy ! You may want to read my post about the "Noren" boots on this link > http://www.hhplace.org/everybody/17366-aldo_boots-3.html#post248733 These too are driving me crazy ! But this time it is even more because I know they fit so well ! Will have to wait a few weeks... Regards, Daniel
dblair Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 My new Pleaser thigh-highs finally arrived. I paid for them nearly a month ago and just received them on Friday:whatever: Its all good now though. I love them and they are in nearly new condition, as promised, and they were a lot cheaper than new. I've added some pics to my album if anyone's curious.

iloveboots Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 Yup, saw them in your gallery update. Great Boots! And also we enjoy the style of wearing them.

Great looking boots! Brown is an interesting color to wear! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
dblair Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 Why the brown ones I dunno...I guess I've always just automatically gone for black, so now I'm trying something different and I'm liking the brown. Honestly though, if they were available in purple, then I would have bought purple for sure!
Thighbootguy Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Great looking boots! I'm not sure brown, blue and purple are a winning combination of colors (sounds like something I'd try). Maybe try something from the warmer end of the spectrum. Will you wear them out and about? I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
Prutske255 Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 I bought a pair of "special" boots from a ebay seller last week .3 I think i have seen them here before . Great boots , perfect fit and good ability to walk .
9inchheel Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 those boots look great. love the heel and arch. what a find. they look a little like my latest buy . BCBG CITRUS in black
danielp6406 Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 A friend of mine bought some nice new boots. After showing them to me she said I should buy the same because they are very comfortable. So we went to the store, I tried them on and did not hesitate to go ahead and buy them. Her's are white and mine are black

Only with a heel instead of a blade......lol
NewfieGuyInHeels Posted August 17, 2010 Posted August 17, 2010 Forgot to show them off here. Got these last week from Sirens. http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j78/darthraze/boots21.jpg http://s77.photobucket.com/albums/j78/darthraze/
mtnsofheels Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 Nice boots Daniel6406, nice to have a friend to shop and wear them with, those are nice boots. NewfieGuyInHeels, those are great as well, nice boots you guys. Got some coming and will post some pics soon! Mtnsofheels
Bootslover29 Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 I bought those boots recently I wear them every time I can, as they are very comfortable. Even with a suit, but not while working what do you think of this look ?
hhcboy63 Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 Picked up a pair of Old Gringo "Leopardito's".... Heel's only about an inch & a half, but they're damn hot, and comfortable to boot..(pun, intended) To Wood&Metal - love the Old Gringos. they have the best snip toe. Just wish the heels were higher.
danielp6406 Posted August 19, 2010 Posted August 19, 2010 I bought those boots recently What do you think of this look ? Nice boots and nice look :-) What about trying to wear your boots under wider and longer pants ?
Bootslover29 Posted August 19, 2010 Posted August 19, 2010 Indeed I do wear them with bootcut jeans, but I also like straight trousers and having the heels not hidden.
Waisted_Giraffe Posted August 19, 2010 Posted August 19, 2010 all been a while Think I have bought a pair of cone heeled courts from Zara a month ago or so; however was in Matalan yesterday and bought these. Simple pair of wedge heeled, laced / zipped calf boots sort of in the current walking boot style. Happen to be able to comfortably fit UK7 / EU41 (2 sizes smaller than I used to have to buy; love the fact that I am modifying my feet by my shoes) Don't come across too well in the photos but think they look quite cute and certainly make my feet seem a lot smaller :-) wearing with a long pair of flared boot cut jeans, feel a lot more confident about broad daylight heeling.
