brian26 Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 I'm retired now, but still retain a passion for high heels & if you'll bear with me I'll tell you it came about....... I was about 10, friends with Johnny D 3 doors away. Ours was a posh road & the Ds were social pariahs - he was a scrap metal merchant, with a flash car & even flashier wife. Mrs D was always dressed up to the nines; fur coat, pencil skirt, seamed nylons & incredibly high heels. The sight of Mrs D teetering to the shops fired a young lad's imagination & the memory is still with me. I loved visiting Johnny; not only were the whole family so friendly (unlike the snooty neighbours), but Mrs D's wardrobe was inexhaustible - new shoes nearly every day, all about 6" high. My dear wife knows all this, & has valiantly worn 5 & even 6" heels over the years to indulge me - she now keeps a weather eye open for lovely sights & about 3 years ago we struck gold, in Budapest. She spotted a lady teetering elegantly along & on closer inspection she turned out to be the spitting image of Mrs D - fur coat, pencil skirt, seamed stockings & very high heels. We dined well that night.......... Now, the wonder of the internet has opened up new avenues of enjoyment, via websites such as those of the gorgeous Pantera & the lovely Gina. There's life in the old dog yet. Best wishes. Brian.
Puffer Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 Welcome, brian26, and what a great story! I'm sure many of us can identify with that scenario; a memory like that never fades, does it? Can you be more specific about the period during which you saw Mrs D - I guess around 1960? And did you try on her heels, with or without your friend's knowledge?
brian26 Posted March 30, 2010 Author Posted March 30, 2010 1950s Puffer (those were the days) & no - I only admired from afar. Brian.
Bubba136 Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 nice to have you here, brian26 Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
