Curt Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Would you guys wear them, or are they too slutty with the platform?
Curt Posted February 19, 2016 Author Posted February 19, 2016 I have them, but in light brown. Buy cab only wear them for so long. So beautiful.

The platform looks like it was stuck on as an afterthought. I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
Bubba136 Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Like walking on hockey pucks! Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
Curt Posted February 19, 2016 Author Posted February 19, 2016 They are quite easy to walk in, and just for the record, they are $800. But I got mine for 90% off. This chick knows where to get good deals.
bailey Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Great color and height. Just think the platform needs to be shaped for a smoother transition.
Histiletto Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Hey! pumpcat, It's interesting as to your use of the word "slutty" in referring to the heels appearance. Even though I agree with Thighbootguy, mwhh, and bnchmrk about the platform, these heels would not necessarily fall under such a degrading classification depending on the outfit and/or activity they are worn. As to my wearing this particular pump, I'm not totally against having them in my selections, but my tastes haven't sought to wear them either. Do you find the same attitudes shown in this thread among women too? By the way, the cost would certainly give a person pause as to their purchase, but the comfort and appearance factors are more influentially appealing.
vector Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Nice! Still a bit pricy for my taste. What brand are they?
maninpumps Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 I see nothing wrong with an elegant platform pump. If memory recalls , Rene'e Zellweger plays Lucy Hill a corporate executive . The name of the movie is New in Town . She is wearing a pair of heels close to Pumpcat's . She looks great with her smart business suit and her heels . She also has several other pair that look great . This is a funny movie . To your question , Yes I would wear them . The color really sets them off and with the right outfit would look great. In my opinion there are no slutty heels ...... just heels that need to be worn with better outfits .
Heelster Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Would I wear a platform - - but of course!!! As for this pair - - they are not quite what I would go for - - just not feeling them. Maybe a bit more slope/angle up toward the arch - - - I actually like a bit of platform. Seems to be a bit easier on the balls of my feet. I actually have both of these.

Chorlini Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 17 hours ago, mwhh said: Like walking on hockey pucks! That about covers my reaction as well. I'm not a big fan of platforms to begin with and this look doesn't make them look any prettier. 16 hours ago, pumpcat said: They are quite easy to walk in, and just for the record, they are $800. But I got mine for 90% off. This chick knows where to get good deals. $800? That is insane! And not just because of the platforms, I would say that about any pair of shoes. Designer shoe prices are crazy, but the fact that people are willing to pay them is even more crazy.
Heelster Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Ummmmmm - - - - some how I botched image edits - - - Oops
freestyle75 Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Hi pumpcat, I don't think that these are even remotely "slutty". Material-wise, they do not use patent-leather, but suede, which takes off the edge quite a bit. Quality-wise, at that price-level they should be top-notch, which is also visible. Thighbootguy said that "The platform looks like it was stuck on as an afterthought." -- that is certainly true in my opinion (and also the reason why I never got any shoes/boots from Charlotte Olympia), but then again - this is her trademark. If you see red soles - Louboutin. If you see these platforms, you know that these are Charloote Olympia heels which retail for 800 USD. Within the fashionista circle, you are setting a statement. From my point of view: A very good buy if you got them at 90% off I also do think that light brown is way easier to combine with stuff than the blue version. Enjoy them!

I did not know that platform was a trademark. But then wearing thigh boots with 5" stilettos has pretty well become a trademark for me in my neck of the woods and not everyone likes that either. I didn't read the shoe's style as slutty in fact I think it has a great shape and really nice heel. The platform just put me off. It does sound like you found them at a bargain price so as @freestyle75says, "Enjoy them!" I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
Curt Posted February 21, 2016 Author Posted February 21, 2016 On Saturday, February 20, 2016 at 8:27 PM, Histiletto said: Hey! pumpcat, It's interesting as to your use of the word "slutty" in referring to the heels appearance. Even though I agree with Thighbootguy, mwhh, and bnchmrk about the platform, these heels would not necessarily fall under such a degrading classification depending on the outfit and/or activity they are worn. As to my wearing this particular pump, I'm not totally against having them in my selections, but my tastes haven't sought to wear them either. Do you find the same attitudes shown in this thread among women too? By the way, the cost would certainly give a person pause as to their purchase, but the comfort and appearance factors are more influentially appealing. Yeah, as a woman, I worry if something is too slutty looking. I would want to be taken seriously as a person, even though I'm wearing shoes that are associated with escorts. But that's just me. Are shoes with huge platforms more sexy than elegant? What do guys think?
Steve63130 Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 I think you'll get answers that are all over the place. Sexy/elegant is in the eyes of the beholder and I don't believe the terms are mutually exclusive. I see no reason that a particular shoe can't be both sexy and elegant at the same time. I personally thought the platform heels were attractive. Steve
Histiletto Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 You Know - pumpcat! Steve63130 put it best from the guy's perspective, the answers would be all over the place, much the same way women seem to determine the promiscuous nature of heels. Then again. many of the guys post indicate they are looking for higher heels more than having platforms to raise their elevation. Which do you prefer - the steeper slope or platform to seem taller? I realize this type of question would normally be influenced by other considerations, but just taking the two design factors on their own, would you rather have the slope or the platform to accent your appearance?
fiddler1307 Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 I can't agree with the description of heels as slutty. In my opinion, slutty is the adjective normally associated with a type of behaviour. Just because heels are high or have a platform doesn't make them slutty. We are in the middle of the awards season, and most of the female stars wear very high heels for the red carpet. Would you say that they are wearing slutty heels? That infers that they are sluts, and I don't think they would appreciate that very much.
HappyinHeels Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 pumpcat, I have seen Charlotte Olympia pumps at Neiman Marcus Last Call typically in the $150-$300 rage having already been deeply discounted. The heels are always very high which I like but typically the highest size I see is 10 1/2 which is usually a bit small on me. The shoes are always a very sexy style and are typically what might be worn out to fine nightclubs and restaurants with very nice slacks or dresses. This would a type of shoe, because of the design and price, I'd wear one pair of lower heels to the event and then change into this type of style kept in a larger handbag. I'm a big believer in having alternate footwear as one can never be too sure of uneven pavements. HappyinHeels
