Time machine

I would like to get a time machine and go back 60 years. All those beautiful heels. The music and the cars too. No boring nude color but a pretty taupe.

I watch Perry Mason and see all the greatest of the 20th century. In the last season Perry is sitting at a table where there is a party for the new newspaper president. Behind him is a woman in the most perfect 4" heels you could ever hope to see.

Hi Luvmaryjanez!

It appears that this is your first post and if so, I would like to welcome you to this forum! 

I agree with you that the heels of the 60's were so elegant. They were simple and always had a timeless design to them. Likewise, the simple black pump without any sort of embellishment will always have a timeless elegance to it.

Yes, welcome!

I would like the 60s too. It was the era of the go-go boot and fun.

Well, I wish I could jump on that time machine as well, not just for the great boots and styles....  More importantly, to accept my true self much earlier in life, would have had so many more years of enjoyment in boots.  Oh well, at least I findally came around.   I would do anything to help even one younger guy avoid the horrible emotional trauma I put myself through, wasted so many years of my life.

Like you I wish I had been able to summon the nerve to wear boots and heels much earlier. It is silly and foolish to allow yourself to be so hobbled by the opinions of others, especially in something that in the bigger scale of things is so trivial. It’s not like wearing heels is a sin, or a crime, or damaging to anyone - it’s simply expressing yourself in fashion. Allowing yourself to have fun. And once you realise and accept that it is such a relief to unload all that useless angst

Yeah, it would have been nice to start earlier, but everything has a time and place. Had I actually started wearing heels when I wanted to, I believe my life would have been harder, not easier. I'm just trying to imagine me wearing heels in high school in the 80s. I probably would have been literally beaten at some point. I may have gone my own way about a lot of things, but I certainly was not ready for those challenges at that time.
