shyguy Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 yeah I'll go with those choices HF, nice selection. He was so narrow minded he could see through a keyhole with both eyes. Brown's Law: If the shoe fits, it's ugly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul (North-East) Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 Well, here's one member (me) who thinks they're a knockout: Make that at least 3 members Heelfan. In my opinion, mules with low cut straps are one of the sexiest styles of shoes. There not the same with those high band straps. You can't beat that slap slap sound and that element of danger that they might be lost at any moment! Cheers, Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new_look Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 not to be the odd one out, but i dont like them that much. I can see what people see in them, unsecure, sexy, high, easy to slide off/on skill to walk in etc, but personally i prefer a more secured shoe with less chance of breaking my neck. . I think it would take someone with considerable practice to wear such footwear especially with a higher heel. However they do look great for the posing pictures, just dont think theyre very practical, and like many i like to see the higher heels 'in use' so to speak. Each to their own i suppose daz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicole Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 One of the manicurists at the salon I visited today had a pair of gorgeous mules on- they were white, about 4.5 inches high with a .5 platform. the truth shall make you fret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 they're lovely... though my preference is more a full shoe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slides 'n Heels Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 I love these mules, so I won't complain These pics are wonderful !! Thank you Heelfan ! love to watch them on cute girls, love to wear them myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ritton Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 I love to see women in sexy spiked heeled slides, especially the classic spiked heeled slides with about a 4 1/2" heel like the early 1980's style Candieswith leather strapps over the toes. that is such a sexy seductive look . especially Barefoot. I love to hear that sexy click- slapp , click - slapp , click - slapp .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virginie Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 I have mules like that as well, they are very nice I think for a day of shopping and enjoying a couple of drinks al fresco in town Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anne_Louise Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 I enjoy mules in the summer and I have a red pair quite like those white ones with the narrow strap and a 51/2" heel. They are very pretty but awkward to walk in as they have a habit of going in a different direction from my feet. Whether it's a manufacturing fault or the way I walk i don't know, but I've overcome it by putting a strip of double-sided adhesive tape under the ball of the foot. It doesn't alter the 'fragile' look (or the sound, for those who are interested) but it does make them feel much more secure. Difficult to slip on and off though. Those wedges are wonderful, I should love to have some even though I usually go for stilettos. In Virginie's thread about wearing heels on the beach I suggested that wedges might be best, and those would be ideal I think. Anne Louise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virginie Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 I have had the same problem with low cut mules as well. They do intend to not follow the same direction of your foot regulary and I solved it the exact same way you did, but didn't use adhesive tape, but (tittietape) you know, the tape I use is to keep very low cut dresses on my breasts and prevent them from falling out of my dress It works well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobHH Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 It looks like those white ones with the single band would come off during or after the first step! The tape sounds like the solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul (North-East) Posted August 14, 2004 Share Posted August 14, 2004 .....or why not live dangerously girls. The occasional lost mule can be very sexy bringing out that "damsel in Distress" thing that Heelfan has so eloquently elaborated on recently. Love, Paul.

loveheel Posted August 14, 2004 Share Posted August 14, 2004 I like the low cut-out. i bought myself some mules with a lot cut. They are remarkably comfortable. Much more so than I had expected. I bought these after I noticed them on a sales girl in a store. I complemented her on her shoes and asked if they had them in a size 11. She got them out and sked if I wanted to try them on. Of course, I didn't refuse ! They are great for around the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genebujold Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 I'm with Daz on this one. Are they sexy? Sure! But I like my heels to be a bit more secure than that, and am actually attracted to spaghetti-strap sandals on other women, particularly if they sport retro touches of style. Here's a pair I find very attractive: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sendra45 Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 there is something very sexy about the second picture from the bottom, the picture of the shoes together from the rear. Wow, if they were in black...... Nigel The angels have the phonebox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveheel Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 Gene, That is indeed a very nice pair you are showing. I just love T-straps, even though I do not have a single one yet in my collection. Where did you get the picture ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba136 Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 I've seen that style for sale on eBay. Search the high heels for sale section and I'm sure you'll come across a pair sooner or later. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JinxieKat Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Mules and t straps. My fav pair of heels right now is a set of t straps, they have a chunkier heel, but not a huge one, makes them perfect for work and also the only heels I can wear right now *ugh* Oh well, I'm whining again . Heh. Those are lovely looking t-straps, I want a pair! Jinxie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genebujold Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 The cage-toe black t-straps are from Pierre Silber: http://www.pierresilber.com/babydollpump.html Genuine leather, and with a 4" heel, it's not a killer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladerunner Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Like the mules especially the wedge style,they are very sexy,but i also prefer something a little more secure! I am now much more into the round toed style of shoe/boot as they give your toes that little bit of extra space. I just love those suede heels!!!!!
