jemanda Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 I have lurked here for a really long time and decided to try my hand at posting few pics and being more "productive", this is my first try at a pic.. hope it works. found these at a reasonable price, and while they look really nice they can be very uncomfortable to wear, those straps could have been softer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jemanda Posted August 9, 2003 Author Share Posted August 9, 2003 The see-through styles are quite rare in South Africa and I was fortunate enough to pick up a pair as well, tried my hand at a bit of image manipulation too.. normally they look like this they are surprisingly easy to walk in but those straps are a pain, my left foot is slightly larger than the left and its not easy getting them on.

jemanda Posted August 9, 2003 Author Share Posted August 9, 2003 This is one of my favourite pairs of HH's and also the tightest of them all. I must admit I like the look of a simple sandal and these just "did it" for me. Alas they dont seem to make a style like this in SA anymore and I will have to hang on them and admire only from a distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurieheels Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 If straps are bothering you, try some moisturizer. See, if you rub something into the material a few times, it can make it wet and pliable. Well, it has worked for me, anyway. I have managed to do this to help straps feel better. As well, take a blade of some sort and rub the inside of the strap. This can help at times, and my mother has taught this to my sisters and myself as we've grown up and couldn't wait for shoes to be broken in before wearing them a good deal.

Laurieheels Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 It's one of those secrets that mothers pass down to their daughters, I'm afraid. But hey, I'm all about slaying the sacred cow, so, everyone enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 Maybe you should write us guys a guide to wearing heels, Laurie. Complete with all those things our moms never told us, but told our sisters I wish I was a size 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dimpantyhose Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 Yeah! I could improve the walking method with high heels. Actually, the only experience I got is to try them. But, I'm not sure that I walk like the way we walk normally with heels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julietta Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 Jemanda Hi, I love those perspex sandals !

Laurieheels Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 There are differences in the way a woman would wear heels as opposed to the way a man would wear them. See, the issue is this - I like them because they enhance my feminine attributes. If I wrote something based on my experience, it may not be 100% applicable. I could try it, if I ever find motivation, and we could then see just how much would be appropriate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 That's true. Men don't walk like women or wear heels like women. Just have Chis walk around in a pair for a while, that'll help your writing I wish I was a size 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurieheels Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 He'd never do that. It's not his thing. He's all about Kung Fu and Basketball. So sorry, I fear I'll just have to do what I did best in school. Make it up as I go along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
