chris100575 Posted May 13, 2006 Posted May 13, 2006 Following a recent decision to buy some wedge mules for summer, I ended up buying two pairs from Richy, one of our members. Other than the mules I bought a pair of Mary Jane courts that I'd had my eye on for some time! They're surprisingly high for a mainstream shoe at 4 1/2", and are a lot of fun to wear! The flared heel adds stability, but being used to 4" heels they still feel very high! Despite me not usually being a fan of round toes and chunky heels, I like these a lot. Chris
DeSalto Posted May 13, 2006 Posted May 13, 2006 Hi Chris, Nice shoes! DeSalto No shoe is better than a sexy pair of stilettos!
Dawn HH Posted May 13, 2006 Posted May 13, 2006 Chris100575:-) I like those Mary-Janes with the flared heel and the round toes. A bit of a different design. Variety is good. Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
tiptoez Posted May 14, 2006 Posted May 14, 2006 Those are really cute Mary Jane's...in fact I'd like a pair myself! The heel is just right and they are conservative enough for me to wear to my office without undue attention.....do we know where they were purchased? (sorry guys...I admit I enjoy reading your part of the forum! ) Tiptoez
Richy Posted May 14, 2006 Posted May 14, 2006 They were purchased from Barratts two to three years ago, although they were sold through Barratts, Saxone and Dorothy Perkins shops.
neildragon Posted May 21, 2006 Posted May 21, 2006 Here are my latest shoes. I just got them from e-bay. In two of the pics i'm wearing a skirt that I found in a thrift shop near my home. Unfortunetly the skirt is to short to wear out. But I still enjoy my heels with my jeans.
Shafted Posted May 21, 2006 Posted May 21, 2006 Nice shoes and great legs, neildragon! FYI: Request that you reduce the size of your avatar as it messes up the page formatting. Thanks.

Danielinheels Posted May 21, 2006 Posted May 21, 2006 I saw a woman wearing a very similar pair of shoes while I was at work today. Very nice style. Be yourself; everyone else is already taken. - Oscar Wilde
neildragon Posted May 21, 2006 Posted May 21, 2006 First off sorrry about the avatar pic I fixed that. Second thanks for the positive comments I really love these heels but i'm not sure about wearing them out in plublic they are a little high for everyday wear. I usualy wear shoes like the ones in my avatar almost everyday.
Shafted Posted May 21, 2006 Posted May 21, 2006 Thanks for reducing you avatar pic. BTW: Are those dragon tatoo's on you legs? You must give us a better look sometime. Shafted, the boots that is!

dr1819 Posted May 21, 2006 Posted May 21, 2006 I like the heels, chris100575 - they look very comfortable. That's one of the things I like about my Franco Sarto loafers - their comfort, even with a 3-3/4 inch heel. I could wear them all day long, and I often do. The additional thing I like about them is the fact that they're a true loafer, and so don't look like a woman's shoe at all, other than the slightly tapered heel (hidden most of the time by my pants). Terrific heel!
Dawn HH Posted May 22, 2006 Posted May 22, 2006 Neildragon:-) A great pair of shoes that show off a great pair of legs. Looks nice with the skirt. Congrats! Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
chris100575 Posted May 22, 2006 Author Posted May 22, 2006 Dr1819: They are very comfortable, I have a couple of pairs of stilettos which are the same height and these are much more stable. I've not actually worn them all that much though, i'ts always the same for me, buy shoes then hardly wear them because I'm in boots instead! Neildragon: I'd like to second Shafted's request for a better look at your tattoos! Chris
neildragon Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 I don't really have to many pictures of my tattoos. I'll see what I can do. Maybe start a new thread Heels and Tattoos. Do you think any one else would be interested, let me know.
chris100575 Posted May 23, 2006 Author Posted May 23, 2006 I know two of us are interested, I have tats myself, so I'm always interested to see other people's. Might be best in the "general non-shoe" section though depending on how relevent you can make it to heels! Unfortunately I can't really combine the two as mine are on my arms and chest. Chris
booty lover Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 finally found time to do some shopping, and saw these in faith, so I bought them!! they are very comfy and easy to walk in. i'm hoping to take them on a walk very soon. stilettos are the way forward, just love them
Dawn HH Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 Bootylover:-) I really like that new pair of pumps that you have there. The toe box and the heel cup details are great. Keep us posted when you venture out in public in them. How high is the heel and what size are they? Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
chris100575 Posted July 28, 2006 Author Posted July 28, 2006 I love those shoes! I'm a big fan of Faith myself, looking forward to Autumn when the boots come in. Chris
