quidam Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 I liked the most # 8 and 10. They look masculine and stylish. You're an inspiration man!.
Thighboots2 Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Happyfeat, Pictures 7 & 8 for me. They work really well, would prefer a shoeboot, but the overall look as excellent and rivals Kneehighs. IMHO, this is really what fashion is about - getting the whole look right. Simon. Are you confusing me with someone who gives a damn?
roniheels Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 HappyFeat ... Once again you are the epitome of chic. You wear those clothes and high heels so well. The time you take to select your outfits and high heels is well worth the effort. I congratulate you again on your fashions.
danielp6406 Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 HappyFeat :-) Picture # 10: I like that look. The shoes and skinny jeans are a perfect match. And the dress is the final touch: Stunning ! I don't wear dresses but I am wondering If I could look as good as you wearing one But not sure If I got the proper shape to wear one... Maybe with a very thight corset...
kneehighs Posted January 7, 2010 Author Posted January 7, 2010 HF--I'd say look #10 is my favorite, but sans the hanging belt. People just don't wear belts like that anymore. Again, just my humble opinion. Feminine Style . Masculine Soul. Skin In The Game.
rxrenesis Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Jeff, My vote is for outfit #2. rx If the shoe fits BUY IT http://s10.photobucket.com/albums/a145/rxrenesis/Shoe%20Shots/
muddypaws Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 All very smart and sharp, clean lines to show you at your best. It looks as if your hands are v. tense! Relax and enjoy the moments, you look good enough to eat as it is. As for choices, mine would be the last one, but with something bright to "REALLY MAKE YOU STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD" as the white jacket is. Love those black patent heels. But thats my weakness. Muddypaws
JeffB Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 HF: My vote's for pic #6! Very sharp! Very stylish! Bravo! I think you can make that dress work with a pair of boots and a long coat for a truly dressy look! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
Thighbootguy Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Wow… miss reading a thread for a couple of days and the whole world changes. HappyFeat – There isn’t a bad look in the whole collection. The pictures that caught my eye were #1 - plain dress with hose and pumps is an absolute striking look. #10 - dress, belt, skinny jeans (leggings), pumps is a bit less daring but also striking. #7 - dress, white slacks, scarf, and pumps is a bit more conservative but the black and white contrast and the scarf accent are great. Did you consider trying the scarf as a belt or sash? JeffB - … thud (sound of my chin hitting the ground). Both outfits are great but if I have to choose I like the second one the best. Do consider that thigh boots go very well with a shorter skirt (you would have been disappointed if I hadn’t said that). I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
Heel-Lover Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Wow - some amazing contributions there.... Jeff B: I like both outfits but I think the purple sweater look is better. I loooove the boots (and I am not really a boot fan) but I like the fine stiletto heels and ruching of the leather. It is very coordinated. Have you thought about a shoulder bag - say black textured leather/ matt leather combination with some silver details in it to compliment the rest of the outfit. It will also add some practicality for carrying stuff? HappyFeat: #4 would be my favourite. I love the black pumps, you have chosen some high quality black stockings as well - I am guessing a very sheer denier and I love this high-class look. #2 - are those red peep toed pumps? Nice coordination with neutral stockings (I think stockings because I can see the welts you naughty chap). In both those two outfits you'll have to be careful when you sit down anywhere as you'll be showing half your stocking welts. #10 - I love these black pumps - a beautiful cut. #6 - are those toenails painted gold? Fantastic legs! You have lovely legs (as the image #6 shows) so why not show them off a little more. Have you thought of going bare legged more often (esp. since you have peep-toes and matching your toenails to something else, eg adding a red jacket, red handbag etc? I like your style - I dress along similar lines and I try to coordinate as much as I can. Well done JeffB and HappyFeat!!!! Heel-Lover
JeffB Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 TBG: Of course I would've been disappointed if you HADN'T mentioned thigh boots! HA! In fact, you just gave me an idea that I might try in my next experiment. Heel-Lover: Thanks for the kind words! Glad you liked the boots, they're among my faves when it comes to footwear. As for a handbag, I carry one almost all the time now when on my jaunts. I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
Maximilian Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 My fav look is no. 10 as well. Very nice! I also like combo 7. Black tunic-dress, white dress pants and black shoes are a winner in my book. Personally, I'd add to the tunic-dress a bit since it's long. I'd go for a different scarf which would be more classic and long, beige-light gray. A thin leather black belt with a silver buckle would also be a consideration as well as a piece of jewellery such as a bracelet or a thin-long necklace that would add some color like amber for instance.
Dawn HH Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 Happyfeat:-) What fantastic looks in your pics. They all look great on you. Very nice choice of clothing and shoes. Your pics show that you have put considerable thinking in putting your outfits together. Fantastic looking pair of legs, ones that any girl would die for. It is amazing just what a good pair of pantyhose and a great pair of heels can do to the looks for a set of legs, male or female. With the heads chopped off on your pics and showing them to strangers,, I'm sure that they would swear that that was a female in those shots. JeffB:-) You also are fantastic at picking great outfits to wear out in public. your experimentation shows and I'm sure that you are having great fun in doing so, and have pride in what you are accompishing. Looking at your shoes and boots and the way you wear them would not indicate to anyone that they are a size 14, only that you wear them as stylishly as any girl would in her every day life. Cudos to you both for taking such pride in the way you wish to look to the general public. You both are advancing our cause to the limit and then some. Keep your heads up high and keep heeling. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
Maximilian Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 Happyfeat:-) With the heads chopped off on your pics and showing them to strangers,, I'm sure that they would swear that that was a female in those shots. Dawn HH HAHAHA! Happyfeat, tell that photographer to get a wider lens or to take a step back
HappyFeat Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Pictures 7 & 8 for me. They work really well, would prefer a shoeboot, but the overall look as excellent and rivals Kneehighs. I don't know about rivaling kneehighs, but I do thank you for the complement. I do credit kneehighs with the concept of wearing a dress as a top. He does so to perfection. As for the shoeboot, I do have a couple pair and if I do another round of photos, I will give it a look. HF--I'd say look #10 is my favorite, but sans the hanging belt. People just don't wear belts like that anymore. Again, just my humble opinion. It is a point well taken. I need to invest in some belts because I would like to add just a little flare to the look. I am thinking along the lines of the belt Jeff wore in his Leggings pictures. It looks as if your hands are v. tense! Relax and enjoy the moments, you look good enough to eat as it is. Actually, my hands were tense more so becuase my house is very cold and I find taking self-portraits to be a bit of a strange experience, though I do it a lot. Wow… miss reading a thread for a couple of days and the whole world changes. HappyFeat – There isn’t a bad look in the whole collection. The pictures that caught my eye were #1 - plain dress with hose and pumps is an absolute striking look. #10 - dress, belt, skinny jeans (leggings), pumps is a bit less daring but also striking. #7 - dress, white slacks, scarf, and pumps is a bit more conservative but the black and white contrast and the scarf accent are great. Did you consider trying the scarf as a belt or sash? Actually, yes I did consider tying the scarf as a belt. I have done so in the past and really like the look. Glad you liked the contrast of the black and white - I liked that look a lot myself. Wow - some amazing contributions there.... #4 would be my favourite. I love the black pumps, you have chosen some high quality black stockings as well - I am guessing a very sheer denier and I love this high-class look. Yes, they both pair of nylons I wore were 15 denier. I bought them for the body shaping panty, but even though they are sheer the do a nice job shaping my legs as well. I bought them at Macy's and they are "HUE Cool Countours" http://www.hue.com/product.aspx?cid=2522&viewall=on #2 - are those red peep toed pumps? Nice coordination with neutral stockings (I think stockings because I can see the welts you naughty chap). Actually, they have a panty. It is just a very long panty and does give the illusion that they are stockings. I must admit, that I have never actually worn true stockings. Maybe something to think about in the future... #6 - are those toenails painted gold? Fantastic legs! Actually, in those pictures my nails are colored silver. Since then, I had a pedicure and am sporting a deep matalic green; however silver, gold, bronze are my favorite toe colors. What fantastic looks in your pics. They all look great on you. Very nice choice of clothing and shoes. Your pics show that you have put considerable thinking in putting your outfits together. Fantastic looking pair of legs, ones that any girl would die for. It is amazing just what a good pair of pantyhose and a great pair of heels can do to the looks for a set of legs, male or female. With the heads chopped off on your pics and showing them to strangers,, I'm sure that they would swear that that was a female in those shots. HAHAHA! Happyfeat, tell that photographer to get a wider lens or to take a step back Actually, the main reason I crop my head isn't that I am concerned about showing my face, it is that most of the time I have some stupid, deer in the headlights look on my face or my hair has gone crazy. It is just another variable that can screw up an otherwise decent body shot. I have great respect for the guys who post including their faces (JeffB, Max) and am jealous that they don't seem to have silly expressions. I have posted a few pictures with my face in the past... Thanks for all of the wonderful comments. I do have another batch to post, though they are not nearly as exciting as the last few. I may get them up in the near future as well as get a shot in a pair of booties and using a scarf as a belt as requested. Style is built from the ground up!
RonC Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 HF, I'm going for #7. I like the dress over slacks look in that picture, and I love the peep toe t-straps you have on. That would be a look I would try for myself.
Bootking Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 HappyFeat and Jeff, There are some incredible looks here!!! HappyFeat, my favorite; the dress, pumps, chain belt = ELEGANT!!! Jeff, blue sweater, tights, turtleneck and boot = AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's all about the heel!
Dawn HH Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 Happyfeat:) Maybe I don't always express my thoughts in print like I should, but your recent body shots without the head on your outfits screams female to me. Great shots and fantastic look and I think that that would be the best compliment available to a man dressed as you were. I will be looking for further pics when ready. Great work, my friend. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
tallguyinheels Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 Been awhile since a post... Happy New Year to you all. No really new outfits until last week, when I bought the Denim Skirt From Chicos... about $70 but I like the narrow profile of the skirt - not much flare. It's quite stretchy so it's very comfortable, but be warned you need to go down a bit in size... and Chico's has a different set of sizes. This one is 1.5 Went to the local store on a cold Atlanta day last week, wearing my patent boots and a black skirt I had altered recently for my weight loss (Pictures to come later). As I walk in, I notice the store had many more customer's - all women - than I expected. An "older" sales lady turned to ask how she could assist me and I queried if they have the long denim skirt as on their web site. "Sure" she say, and turned immediately for me to follow to the sellected rack in the store. I don't think - because of partially blocking display racks - she even noticed my skirt and shoes, until I approached and she turned to ask what size? Remember I'm a good 6'8" tall in heels and, correctly, she would have to look up to converse with me. I responded, "Well as you can see, I occasionally wear skirts. A size 14 is normal for me. Would you mind is I tried it on here?" I wanted to be polite and this is a womens store and there were othe customers trying stuff on, I assumed. She them pulled a size 2.5 and directed me to an end dressing room. The 2.5 was obviously too large, so I exited the dressing booth and as she inquired I asked for the next size smaller. One nice thing in Chicos, and I've not seen this in other stores, is they have a large and wide floor to ceiling mirror to preview your outfit in the common area near the dressing rooms. As the sales lady approached with the size 2, I was able to see that this would be a dandy skirt to own and wear in public. The skirt is also a heavier denim so ideal for fall/winter wear. The size 2 also was a bit large in the waist (the saleslady said it would be the equivalent of a size 12), so she fetched the size 1.5 and is fits well- stretching just a bit at my hips - but perfect and the women's waist position. I have grown accustom to wear in a "Waist cincher" undergarment that not only pulls me in abit there, it is a constant reminder to watch what I eat. One thing I notice in these pictures is that I may have to have some of my shirts tailored to remove some of the extra material at the bottom... I doubt if I'd find womens shirts to match my large upper torso and 37" sleeves. Oh, All smiles and no scowls from sales staff and customers in the store, even though there were a few customer glances as I was checking my look out in the big mirror. Big have a great day from two younder sales ladies minding the door as I exited. Worth every penny. Comments welcome, as always, skirting the envelope.
Dawn HH Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Tallguyinheels:-) It appears to be a good look to me. Enjoy your new purchase to the fullest. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
danielp6406 Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Tallguyinheels:-) It is the first time I see a narrow denim skirt. I like the look a lot. Specially with the boots. Wondering why I don't see long denim skirts in any stores here...
roniheels Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 That is a very nice look. Love the plaid blouse with the denim skirt and those are some very nice high heeled boots. With your statuesque appearence, do you draw much attention?
corsair Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 I spent a couple of weeks dinking around with 3 different pairs of boots from Zappos. For David Tate, wide foot = wide calf, which for them means gigantic calf, which mine are not. But I finally found a pair that are comfortable and fit my calves nicely. I had the keeper pair delivered to my hotel and I've enjoyed wearing them this week for going to dinner or grocery shopping. I wear them under my long jeans, not with my pants rolled up, but I thought you'd like to see them. I will be wearing these for the flight home this weekend, so I will have a whole day in them! I'm looking forward to it.
Thighbootguy Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 The boots look great. Why not try going to dinner with them over your jeans? I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
tallguyinheels Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Roniheels: thx for the comments... Well yes, compared to wearing long jeans over heels wear maybe 1 in 20 notice, and that's at my unusual height! With the skirt, I'd say that in social surroundings, like a convenience store, everyone you pass notices. At a functional place like a restaurant or Borders, its more like 50%. But in all cases, my experience is that maybe 1 in 100 that notice have something negative to say in a way you hear it. I've probably received more compliments than scoffs, at least verbally where the detractor/complimentor would expect me to hear or respond. hope this helps...
Bubba136 Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Nice collection of boots, iibb I particularly like the red pair and the black pair with the blade heels. I wouldn't hesitate to wear either pair out and about in public. While the red color surely would attract attention, they look very "cool" with jeans. The black pair has a real "cowboy" boot look. The blade heels gives it a lot of style. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
