Avelyn Posted February 20, 2002 Posted February 20, 2002 Hi all, I posted this in the wanted section, but reposting here since it seems that more people come here . I'm buying a very nice outfit for my girlfriend's birthday, but having an extremely difficult time trying to get the right shoes for it. It's almost a floor length velvet gown, color is medium brown with a black swirling pattern... it's an extremely beautiful gown that would be just absolutely adorable on her. I'm trying to find a nice pair of shoes to go along with it. I'm thinking that a pair of dark brown or black suede pumps or slingbacks would be best? I'm trying to find something with around a 4" stiletto heel. She's around 5'3". I live in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA and am having a really difficult time because there's only a couple stores around here that sells dressy shoes. Unfortunately they've just cleared out their stock and replaced them with sandals ... thanks in advance.

hhpumps Posted February 20, 2002 Posted February 20, 2002 go to ebay stores and look at heelbuys. just purchased a pair of 5" black velvet heels for s/o. they are very nice, comfortable and reasonably priced. they are by jante. they are to most comfortable high heels i have found. good luck. let's know the final outcome! patent leather and classic high heel pumps area.
terayon Posted February 28, 2002 Posted February 28, 2002 hey hhpumps, great selection in your store! do you ever get any shoes / boots with a chunky heel? maybe knee high boot or mary jane shoe? good size selection too!
hhpumps Posted March 2, 2002 Posted March 2, 2002 never never - i do not like the thick heel or chunky heels. i will only buy and wear stiletto heel, mostly classic pumps. although i do have one pair of purple suede pumps with an open toe and one pair of sandals and also one pair of knee high boots with 4" stiletto heels and in black patent of course. patent leather and classic high heel pumps area.
Highluc Posted March 24, 2002 Posted March 24, 2002 I got mine from the Silhouette store in Rotterdam yesterday, they have a fantastic choice even in larger sizes and you can also order online. More details on my website and the links page. I needed these to replace the ones ruined during the first Euro heel meet and to get some good marks from the anti-platform movement on this board. Are these to your taste? Be youself, enjoy any footwear you like and don't care about what others think about it, it's your life, not theirs. Greetings from Laurence
Laurieheels Posted March 25, 2002 Posted March 25, 2002 They are very nice. When are you sending me a pair? I think the anti platform girls movement is pleased, but I can only comment for myself, not our whole organisation.
Highluc Posted March 25, 2002 Posted March 25, 2002 Thanks Laurie, you can buy these online from the Dutch Silhouette website in the links on my webpage. They have an enormous choice of classy heels but quality has a price. Usually they are around 70 USD, add shipping and import duties and it might become exorbitant from across the big pond. They also have those classic pumps up to 7-inch heels in quality leather. If you can't find it on their site, e-mail them, they have even more in stock and ship worldwide. Be youself, enjoy any footwear you like and don't care about what others think about it, it's your life, not theirs. Greetings from Laurence

Melissa Posted March 26, 2002 Posted March 26, 2002 However its really a nice and fine shoe. I think its best to wear it with a black stocking or something. How much do you think the shipment cost to send it to South East aSia?
Highluc Posted March 26, 2002 Posted March 26, 2002 High Melissa, I choose to take the pictures in clear hose for better contrast but usually wear them with dark hose and pants in order not to be too flashy. You can contact Silhouette by e-mail through their website shown on the links page of my site.
