fashionablefun 59 Posted March 5 It's been about 10 years since I've posted a picture to HHPlace. I've read and rarely made a comment, but for some reason I decided to shoot some photos. I found my old thread. But it's so old, it's been closed to comments. I don't any of those shoes anymore. I tend to change them out as fashion and my tastes progress. I bought some Jessica Simpson pumps at Nordstrom recently and wore them a number of places, including breakfast and lunch a couple fast casual restaurants and shopping at the mall between. Went into Dillards department store and checked out the shoe department. No comments from anybody this time and hardly any notice at all. I think that if your clothes are fashionably appropriate, you don't really look unnatural, despite the incongruity. I think that may account for the lack of notice and comments. As I was exciting the restaurant, I glanced at my reflection in the window as I strode to my car, much like the pose here. 10 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fashionablefun 59 Posted March 18 I recently wore this exact outfit to the eye doctor, a diminutive but stylish woman, who couldn't be over 5 feet in height. She said, "Oh you shouldn't wear heels around me. I tell my 5'10" husband to always wear flats!" The comment made me wonder what her husband's non-flats were exactly. These are inexpensive boots from Forever 21., but fun for a lark. 13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tailored pants is the way to go because they keep your legs slender, which is harmonious with a slender high heeled shoe ! I love your pumps too - an open instep (half d'orsay) is a lovely variation.

fashionablefun 59 Posted October 30 Here's the outfit I put together, inspired by a photo in another thread. I went both shopping for a new TV and also went to the mall, shopping for clothes and for lunch in the food court. I felt it looked good and was confident. No one seemed to take any notice, despite the obvious display. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't kid yourself people noticed, You just didn't notice them noticing you. I read the lips of a woman walking perpendicular to me the other day as she whispered "I love those heels" to her friend, but didn't say anything to me. I imagine many women noticed your slim body, skinny legs and would then see your heels, but were too envious to say anything.

RonC 228 Posted October 31 great look. Love the white and black contrast. Ladies should take a cue from you! Very classic yet modern looking, if that makes any sense...lol. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm of the opinion that if your whole outfit looks good together, it's actually less noticeable, despite the gender mismatch in the footwear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree, I blend clothes from both sides of the store in my everyday wear. I rather wear what looks good and fits right than worry where in the store it came from. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
