Snoots Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 Now that's the sort of stuff high heeled dreams are made of lol
Cuban Nicky Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 It would be hard to find so many ugly women with such bad taste in shoes, all together in one place
Dr. Shoe Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 Look at this pic. The third girl from the left. Has she got her legs on back to front? Graduate footwear designer able to advise and assist on modification and shoe making projects.
Tom-NL Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 Look at this pic. The third girl from the left. Has she got her legs on back to front? Indeed. When I first saw that picture in the parallel thread (http://www.hhplace.org/your_favourite_high_heel_pictures/20923-random_internet_finds-4.html#post308667) I wondered if this was photoshopped
Tech Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 Look at this pic. The third girl from the left. Has she got her legs on back to front? lol, silly, she is the one in the brown sandals, but yeah, I had to look long and hard at that pic to see it...

nerol69 Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 It's not, of u look close you can see the other foot between the feet of the third girl and just a tiny bit of her head. Now it may have been done as a joke??
FreshinHeels Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 thats a lot off heels and well heels In the process of becoming the person I always was...but didn't dare to let her come out
ilikekicks Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 The shoes in the very first pic posted.. OMG! Get a lawn mower and kill those things! They are more hideous then pleaser pole dancer wear! They were probably like 800$ too! REPEATEDLY ARGUMENTATIVE, INSULTING AND RUDE. BANNED FOR LIFE.
Gizmo Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 There is a Hat so there must be another girl in the second row. Count legs
Dr. Shoe Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 Yes, I knew that when I first saw the picture but I had to study it to see that. You have to admit that at first glance though... Graduate footwear designer able to advise and assist on modification and shoe making projects.
Leo Posted April 16, 2012 Author Posted April 16, 2012 I think that the woman in the second picture down with her back to the camera is the same person on the extreme right of the next picture down.
cpt.zanzibar Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 I would LOVE to have been there. Im not one for air headed fake and bakers, but it would have been a GREAT knee down day. I would have whipped the film camera out for heel day like that! Coleen Rooney looks great in those Louboutins! I like all the women in the background of her pics are just teetering on the edge of any kind of stability, that kind of thing gets me looking!
CassieJ Posted April 20, 2012 Posted April 20, 2012 I can't visit the Daily Mail. I get stuck there for hours looking at all the celebs in heels. Cassie - http://www.fetishforhighheels.com
BoyLegs Posted May 29, 2012 Posted May 29, 2012 Maybe there was some questionable taste in there, but the ladies were making an effort. Here in the states, I wonder if a similar gathering would have found everyone in flip-flops.
zepan Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 A new one to read. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2175891/Short-British-women-copy-Cheryl-Cole-Victoria-Beckham-wear-Europes-highest-heels.html
Dr. Shoe Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 No surprises there. You only have to go out on a typical saturday night in Reading to see it. Graduate footwear designer able to advise and assist on modification and shoe making projects.
zepan Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 a different News Paper but it's OK, not sure about the girls Nose. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/woman/fashion/4470613/Spilletto-heels.html
Trolldeg Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 not sure about the girls Nose. What does her nose have to do with anything?
Mike Hinch Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 Her nose is just a bit prominent but not so bad. What is bad is I can see the pointy toe design again and also I see a big gap at the middle of the shoe like it does not fit the shape of a foot. Something like that I could not wear for two tenths of an hour. From the same material we could have a shoe that fits.
Foxyheels Posted August 12, 2012 Posted August 12, 2012 I have a pair very similar to those n the Sun article. Big 3" platform so only really a 4" heel, quite common to see them nowadays as several shops in my area sell them. I like the fac the platform is concealed and allows lots more women to wear super high shoes regulary. High heels are the shoes I choose to put on, respect my choice as I repect yours.
CassieJ Posted October 7, 2012 Posted October 7, 2012 Not to inject politics into this but did you read the comments on that last link? Most of the people complaining are upset that eventually some of these wearers will require medical assistance on their feet. This is a reason to reject socialized medicine like the UK has. You can have freedom or you can have government control. You cannot have both. Once you sell your freedom for government medical care, the bureaucrats control you including eventually passing rules or laws to restrict your choice of footwear. Read the comments on that story and tell me those people wouldn't fully support a ban on heels. It is coming if they can attribute medical expenses to this 'bad behavior.' That said, I don't think most of the commentors have ever even tried to wear heels like those. They are quite easy to walk in as the difference from toe to heel is only 3.5" The rest is platform. The woman modeling them is over-dramatizing the photos for the sake of an article. As someone else stated, most of the women (and men) that openly deride heels and heel-wearers are unable to walk in them and don't like the attention women (and men) that wear them receive. Simple jealousy. Cassie - http://www.fetishforhighheels.com
at9 Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Not to inject politics into this ... You just have. Do you really believe what you have just said about our NHS? Do you really believe that tabloid comments like this actually represent anything remotely like UK health policy? The NHS has plenty of problems but refusal to treat some patients because they have contributed to their own problems is not one of them. As for stories about people wearing shoes that are a bit too high for them. When you put somebody in shoes like this, that they have never tried before, It's hardly surprising if they have trouble staying upright. Either a bit of fun or typical tabloid "newspaper" material depending on your point of view.
Dr. Shoe Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 "Do No Harm" is the hipporatic oath and it applies to the NHS just as much as it does to any other health body. The NHS will not refuse to treat anyone even if the injuries are self inflicted. Here in the UK we probably have more freedoms than in the US (for example you don't have to wait until 21 to drink beer). "Socialized medicine" is actually a good thing.

at9 Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 I would recommend Lynn Payer's book "Medicine and CUlture" for those who wish to understand the US, UK, French and German healthcare systems. http://www.amazon.co...r/dp/0805048030 I would also recommend Ben Goldacre's books "Bad Science" and "Bad Pharma". I have just started to read the latter and it's more than slightly scary. Living in the US without adequate health insurance seems pretty scary to me. In the UK we count it as part of being a civilised society that young and old, poor and rich, sensible and stupid, all have access to a decent healthcare system. It's not perfect, some of it is frankly poor, but it's there when we need it without worrying about being able to pay PS: If you think things are bad with conventional medicine I ought to add that most if not all "alternative" therapies have hardly been properly tested in any way that gives respectable evidence for their efficacy and side effects.

Shafted Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 I was actually mortified that doctors here in the US no longer have to take the Hippocratic oath. Mainly because it is inconsistent with prescribing prescription poison. Shafted, the boots that is!
