Sydheel Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 I was at my fave store today wittner who have great quality heels and boots up to eu42 which is a 10.5. In us and aus. Im an 11 so i fit about 80% of them. I found a pair of peep toe all leather ankle boots with a 1 cm platform and 12cm block heel in the run out shelves. my first ever pair of peep or open toes. I tried them on and bought them. How much ? $26 (aussie). I am soooooo happy. Pic coming asap james 3 Regards James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petey86 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Nice peep toe boots you have there . I'm another fan of Wittner, usually fit their size 42 shoes and sometimes 41 if I'm lucky and had many styles over the years from them. Good to see another Aussie ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydheel Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 Another great shopping adventure just completed. Went to ninewest in sydney cbd. Small but open store onto the mall. Nervous but excited going in. Young staff member asked me what i wanted, no issues at all. Tried on about 6 pairs of pumps with 2 girls clucking over me. Telling me those look great. Those not as good, try these. I want to see these on you. In the end i dont know who was having the better time. Bought a pair of platform pumps. But almost bought the ones in the pic maybe next visit 2 Regards James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done. Thanks Thighbootguy. Yup, been driving in these for more than a year almost everyday. No scuff issue at the back of the shoe. Patent finish is still shiny.

Sydheel Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 Morning all Tue morning here and ive just started a big adventure. Due to expected rain i went to local train station and left my scooter nearby. Slipped on a pair of heels and got on train. There is no option now. I have NO reserve shoes. I have to take train to city (about 40 mins) then a 1.5 k (1 mile) walk to my work. Then i have to enter the security area. Im thrilled and nervous. Although i wear heels all the time they tend to be lower and more block type. I am wearing a pair of windsor smith 'tempurr' booties with a thin block type 10cm heel. I am sure to have sore feet on arriva. Hope i dont run into anyone i know will report in again on way home james 2 Regards James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluejay Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Nice looking boots and pumps. I'm also a fan of Nine West. I have many pairs of shoes and boots from Nine West. Enjoy wearing, them. Happy Heeling, bluejay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydheel Posted November 4, 2015 Author Share Posted November 4, 2015 Thanks bluejay i am at upper limit of them as im a size 11 and thats all they carry here in aus. In us i believe a lot of things go to 12 wish i had 1 size smaller feet :( Regards James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thighbootguy Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 The Nine West pumps look great but I would have thought the pair of Windsor Smith 'Tempurr' booties with a thin block type 10cm heel would have been better at work. How did it go in the pumps? I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydheel Posted November 4, 2015 Author Share Posted November 4, 2015 I only wore the new pumps for 2 lots of 30 mins while at my desk as im trying to stretch them. Its either that or cut off my left little toe. Lol i had the other booties on for rest of day. On my way home now and after a whole day my feet hurt, but its a nice hurt Regards James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a peep toe you can often cheat on the size a little. I love the zipper closure on the back. They really look comfortable...are they?

Sydheel Posted November 10, 2015 Author Share Posted November 10, 2015 Hey there TBG yes they are comfy and i love the rear zip. Way cool. The platform makes them so comfy and easy to walk in James Regards James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
