JeffB Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 kneehighs: Many thanks for the kind words on my outfit. As for your suggestions, I wrote down some notes as I liked what you said. The idea of a sport jacket with a button down shirt was intriguing. I'll see what I can do about effecting that look you mentioned. Should be fun! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
dr1819 Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 JeffB - Wonderful! Enjoy them well. They're very much like the boots I wear. Ciao!
luxxyheels Posted November 11, 2005 Author Posted November 11, 2005 Well, the more and more I thought about it, I decided not to get these shoes. I ordered these instead in black leather:
chris100575 Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 Wow! Now those are sexy! Where are they from? Chris
flavio Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 I think it was a nice choice luxxyheels! The shoes are beautiful, sexy and the sole appears to be thick, what means confortable to wear. Congratulations! Flavio - Brazilian heel lover, now in France.
JeffB Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 As promised, I took a spin out to the mall in the outfit above. The only change I made was a black turtleneck instead of a polo. Paired with my black leather jacket, I thought I looked pretty damn good. The five inch heels on those boots were quite visable with the straight legged jeans I wore. This time out, I did get more than a few double takes and long stares, as visable as the heels were, that was inevitable. The highlight of the day (said with tongue in cheek) was encountering half a dozen young African-American males who hooted and hollered and laughed when they saw me walk into a bookstore. On of those guys (probably egged on by his fellows) followed me in to get a closer look. When he got to within ten feet of me, I turned around, looked him straight in the eye and said, "Did I satisfy your curiosity?" He was startled, not knowing what to say, so he didn't say anything and left. Just another fun filled day in heels. Thighbootguy: As for the boots themselves were easy to wear and walk around, what with the five inch heels. The toes were a tad pointer than what I'm generally used to, and after four hours, I started to feel a bit of discomfort. Something else to consider, even after four hours of walkinga round, the heel tips were in still in good shape, something that isn't always the case with leather shoes. Overall, I was pleased with the boots. I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
iloveboots Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 Hi jeff, Without a doubt a 10 out of 10 look! And bravo on handling the curiousity of the young man who approached you, he learned a wonderful lesson, "do not judge others". Hopefully he will take that through life. david As promised, I took a spin out to the mall in the outfit above. The only change I made was a black turtleneck instead of a polo.

Dawn HH Posted November 12, 2005 Posted November 12, 2005 Luxxyheels:-) That sure is a sexy pair of shoes and you made a wise choice to get them in black as they can go with so many more outfits in that color. JeffB:-) Dang! you did it again. Not only did you look sharp, but what a comeback. "Did I satisfy your curiosity"? You may not have satisfied their curiosity, but you sure did put them in their place. Maybe the next time they will think a little bit before hooting and hollering first. Now that's what I call "instant education". Kudos, my friend. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
dr1819 Posted November 12, 2005 Posted November 12, 2005 Hi, Jeff - much more suited to your overall style! Good on 'ya!
Shafted Posted November 12, 2005 Posted November 12, 2005 Great story JeffB, and great outfit. The look on that kid's face must have been priceless. Shafted, the boots that is!

jim Posted November 12, 2005 Posted November 12, 2005 Good choice with the turtleneck Jeff. I think Kneehigh's was on the money when he mentioned your polo and the look it imparts. On us leaner guys,I think a sleek pointy stilleto boot really needs a sleek over-all look to work well.I feel the turtle would have helped you accomplish this by adding balance and refinement.A black jacket and button down shirt would look razor sharp on you and me both.. Just my two cents.... jim
luxxyheels Posted November 12, 2005 Author Posted November 12, 2005 Wow! Now those are sexy! Where are they from? Chris They are produced by Pleaser, but I bought them through www.howcool.com.
booty lover Posted November 12, 2005 Posted November 12, 2005 Hi Booty lover, I love those boots from Faith! Did you try them on in the shop? Chris hi chris, thanks, they are lovely, i didn't have the courage to try them on in the shop, maybe next time i should, maybe i'll become more confident BootyLover:-) Welcome to the HH Place Forum. That's a nice pair of new boots that you have there. I also like the boots that you have in your Avatar pic. Are they yours or something you picked off of the internet? hi dawn, thanks, they are lovely and sooo comfortable. The boots in my avatar are me actually wearing them. i first saw them while i was walking home from work, was around 2am kicking out from nightclub time and i saw a young lass wearing them and just fell in love with em. so i went to faith and bought them!! £85 well spent stilettos are the way forward, just love them
JeffB Posted November 12, 2005 Posted November 12, 2005 Thanks for the compliments. The comeback was strictly spur-of-the-moment stuff, something that just popped into my head. However, it was certainly fitting for the occasion. Heh! The turtleneck was a last minute change before I left the house on my outing, and yeah, I thought it was a darn good look. I'll take some pics of the outfit, something I should've done yesterday. Oh, well, no one's perfect! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
JeffB Posted November 12, 2005 Posted November 12, 2005 Wore the Seduce 2000 boots for a second straight day, this time, with that black polo shirt and my long jeans. With the heels mostly hidden, no one would've guessed at what I was wearing if it weren't for the telltale click-clacking as I walked. Wearing and walking the mall in five inchers proved to be quite easy, easier than I thought in fact. Also, as a test, I wore the boots without socks or hosiery and, surprisingly, my feet were more comfortable than they were in the knee-highs I wore with them on Friday. In fact, I went five hours today with no discomfort, vice four on Friday with a little. Amazing stuff to say the least! On the downside however, the heel tips completely wore out after just two outings, so I'll have to have them replaced. Hopefully, aftermarket tips from a repair shop will last longer. Food for thought. I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
Shafted Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 Great boots Jeff! And yes, you'll find that the replacement tips will last much longer. My cobbler uses a hard rubber tip rather than a plastic tip. It makes slightly less noise, but lasts much longer. Shafted, the boots that is!

I'll make a note to ask about rubber tips when I take the boots to the repair shop on Monday! I like those boots and now that I've acclimated myself to mall walking in five inch heels, I plan to get a goodly amount of use out of them! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
Dawn HH Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 BootyLover:-) That's a great pair of boots and they make a great Avatar pic with you in them. How high are the heels? Boy!!! Do they look good on you. Fantastic! JeffB:-) That's also a great pair of boots that you have. Congrats on your Mall walking in them. You are sure having so much fun doing that. I know that I and Mickey have great fun walking the Malls, visiting the stores, and eating in the Food Court where there isn't any way that you can hide your heels while sitting in the Food Court. Congrats again. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
BobHH Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 JeffB - Where did you get your boots? I found them on the Beverly Heels web site for an incredibly low price. However, I ordered a pair of Vanity 2013 boots, with only 4" heels, to start. The Pleaser site says they are going to come out with a Seduce 2002 made of rubber. Wonder if that means they will be waterproof? I tried a pair of 5" leather ankle boots I have had for some time but not worn before. I had put arch supports in them with a rather thick heel cup. Wearing them resulted in the boots tending to go over sideways at the slightest provocation!!! Was it them or just me getting old/out of condition? My 5 in. sandals are no problem. I took the supports out, and the boots were much more stable! The heel cup was raising my foot too far up out of the boot. I verified that by putting the supports into a pair of 4 in. pumps I just received, and got the same result! The pumps are Pleasers size 14W, and look like gunboats. I can wear thick socks with them. Neither they or the boots are very steady, the heels tending to rock sideways, which is disconcerting to me. The sandals don't do that, nor do the many platform sandals I have. These (boots, pumps, sandals) are the first non-platform heels I have had for many, many years.
booty lover Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 BootyLover:-) That's a great pair of boots and they make a great Avatar pic with you in them. How high are the heels? Boy!!! Do they look good on you. Fantastic! hey, thanks. the heel hight is 4 inch, slightly hidden by a buckle strap and they are quite loud as they have a metal heel tip. am managing to walk fine in them now, been practicing lots stilettos are the way forward, just love them

Wonder if that means they will be waterproof? If memory serves, I bought those boots from Beverly Heels back in August. When they first came out, they didn't have them in my size, so they were put on backorder until late October. Hmm, didn't know Pleaser had a website, I'll have to check that out. A rubber boot? That sounds unusual. I'd like to see what that's all about! Booty lover: That is an awesome pair of boots you have! The buckle strap is a really nice touch and they certainly look good on you. Perfect with jeans. Wow! Good luck with them! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
JeffB Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 I recently ordered a pair of these from Beverly Heels: Pretty cool, huh? I thought these knee boots (Vanity 2013) with four inch heels would go well with the long skirts I've been accumilating of late. I'll let you know when I get them and, of course, take pics! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
ShockQueen Posted November 13, 2005 Posted November 13, 2005 Well, there goes JeffB....intro-ing another fab shoe/boot site that has a wonderful selection at great prices. There goes my extra fundage *whoosh!* A-shopping we will go! SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!

Dawn HH Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Booty Lover:-) Thanks for the heads-up on your Avatar boots. Very nice, indeed. JeffB:-) That's a nice pair of boots you have just ordered. The top cut is a bit different. Now you can start figuring out what to wear with them while you are waiting for delivery. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
BobHH Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Many of the pictures of the Vanity 2013 show the top part of the boot folded down. Not quite like a pirate boot, but they look nice that way. These are the Seduce 2013, same as the Vanity 2013 except it has a 5 in. heel instead of 4 in., so the Vanity should fold down the same way.
JeffB Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 JeffB:-) That's a nice pair of boots you have just ordered. The top cut is a bit different. Now you can start figuring out what to wear with them while you are waiting for delivery. Cheers--- Dawn HH Well, I've already got that figured out, Dawn! Boots like those will go well with tight jeans, either tucked in or worn outside, and seeing they're knee high, they'll work just as well with my growing little collection of long skirts. Can't wait to get my hands on 'em! BobHH: The Seduce 2013 boots with the five inch heel are quite intriguing. I might just order a pair of those too! Heh! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
JeffB Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Here's something I found on the Beverly Heels website: Black patent with a five inch chrome heel and toe! A bit too bold for me, but hey, I'm sure someone here might be interested in them! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
Shafted Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 I am, those look great! Shafted, the boots that is!
