Aiming High - Practicing in Heels

[Shyheels]

My 12cm heels are very definitely the proper angle for 12cm stilettos - they were made for the right proportions for my size.

Even just wearing them as a potter around and sit and write I am starting to feel more at ease in them. They are becoming more familiar which is a help. I just need to put in the distances and practice. And probably with an 11cm first!

I never really felt like any of my heels were the wrong angle, but I also don't always look at which height they're labeled at and then measure them.

Which shoe size do you have, Shyheels?

 

That's a great progress!

I don't feel any progress so far. Wore them twice last week at home.

Thank you! I’m quite pleased at feeling more at home in them.

i wear a 45 or 46 so it is not always easy for me to find nice heels. I have no interest at all in fetishy ones which are what you usually find in larger sizes. I bought a couple pair of knee boots from Italian heels - very classic style - and a pair of really lovely custom OTK boots from Jean Gaborit in a very nice black suede. They are my favourite pair by far - and the 9cm heels are really easy and stable to walk around in. They were expensive but I absolutely love them.

That's a big size, I can imagine that it's hard to find heels in this size, but nice you were able to find some.

Yes it is very difficult to find nice fashion heels in my size. It can be done but you have to be committed enough to spend. I’d always wanted to try wearing heels and when I finally summoned the nerve to do it, I decided to do it well and buy some really nice ones. Jean Gaborit is fully custom and make gorgeous boots in just about any size. And so my collection of heels is quite small but very nice.
