chris100575 Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 My cousin wore these shoes to my wedding with a very nice black satin dress. I'd been admiring the shoes on the day, so went she came to visit recently she brought them up for me to try on. I couldn't resist getting a couple of pics while I was in them!

Guest Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Awesome, they look great. I have a pair of Carvella shoes similar to this too and they are great looking and very comfortable, pity they are expensive though. Its very nice of your cousin to let you try them. Did you get to keep them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trolldeg Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Nice shoes, but they don't go with those pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roniheels Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Nice shoes, but they don't go with those pants. They are very nice. But they don't look like they would go good with a formal dress. How did they look with the dress? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris100575 Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share Posted November 2, 2011 formallyknownas: No I didn't get to keep them, she just let me wear them for a while. Trolldeg: What would you suggest? Roniheels: It wasn't a formal dress, I can't really describe it, it was not quite rockabilly and not quite goth. It did look good with the shoes though. It wasn't that traditional a wedding, my wife's dress was black and I wore my New Rock Reactors with my suit. (Big stompy goth boots) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hansi1973 Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Very, very nice shoes. With this block heel they do - so in my opninion - fit even with Jeans and woolen socks. What makes me wonder is the sole of these shoes. Did you cousin "wear" them in a bag? They seem so pretty unused. LIFE IS TOO SHORT FOR SHORT HEELS!

chris100575 Posted November 3, 2011 Author Share Posted November 3, 2011 Wonder no more, my aunt has arthritis and is unable to walk far. Because of this my uncle drove her and my cousins to the door of both the wedding and the reception so that they could help her. Rachel, whose shoes they are, probably walked about four metres that wasn't on carpet, and she's not had occasion to wear them since. This is why the soles look new.

jetheelsfan Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Those are IMPRESSIVE, you wer/are very fortunate to have a cousin that will let you try them. I am curious, how did she know you wanted to try them? Did you know they were going to fit before she offered? Just a bit higher to to delight - low enough for healthy foot comfort and great beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris100575 Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 Well, she moved in with me for a few months about five years ago. I decided that if she was going to be my housemate she needed to know about my heels before she moved in and either caught me in them or found a pair that wasn't hers. Fortunately she was fine with it, although it did surprise her at first. It turned out that we have roughly the same size feet, so we used to borrow each other's shoes quite often. When I said that I liked her shoes at the wedding she said that next time we saw each other and it was more private that I could try them on. Star that she is, she remembered and brought them with her when she visited. She also tried on a couple of pairs of mine that she hadn't seen before. I'm getting a pair of her knee length boots next time I see her because she doesn't wear them any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris100575 Posted November 8, 2011 Author Share Posted November 8, 2011 Barney: Hers are from Carvela, but I don't think they have them any more and they only went up to a size 41. Those do look almost identical though. Legs: Of course I gave them back, they're not mine. I'm not going to steal from her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
