Dante Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 I finally got my collection together and I never realized just how many I had, All HHs in black. Should we call you "Men in Black"? I really like your collection ... that's maybe how mine will look like in a few years from now. Especially like in 002.jpg the first-row very right and back-row very right one. ... which brands are they?
Bubba136 Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 Some nice shoes in your collection. Why all black? and, where do you wear them? Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.

Especially like in 002.jpg the first-row very right and back-row very right one. ... which brands are they? Yes "men in black" would probably be a good description, though I'm not sure if that might be the Alien The front right were from Matalan, last years collection, and the back right were from Newlook.
sept181 Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 Some nice shoes in your collection. Why all black? and, where do you wear them? Sorry I missed the multi quote ! "Why all black " good question ! I never thought about it before but I suppose nothing in any other color has caught my eye. I mostly wear them in the house as I have been trying to brake out into public heeling for many years, with various degrees of success, from what I have read here over the years it's supposed to get easier, but I seem to start from scratch each time I venture out!
Elegant Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 Great collection; I'm jealous about your oxfords, witch heels, boots and T-straps . As for all black - I also don't have any non-black footwear. What is good for a goose, can be good for any gender!
hh4evr1 Posted September 14, 2010 Posted September 14, 2010 Nice collection. My collection was all black, but now if I find a nice pair of heels I may get other colours.
stev55 Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 Have a Target gift card, 5 pairs this afternoon all 4 or 4 1/2 discounted over $75.00 plus free shipping, also a reminder this store is LBTG friendly, I have tried two pairs at lunch, bought new jeans and aqua blouse, then went back to work and ordered on line. regards

Bubba136 Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 166 pairs. You may want to see the details here > http://www.hhplace.org/everybody/1325-how_many_boots_do_you_have_your_closet-6.html#post253579 Wow, daniel, how long has it taken you to amass that collection? Do you wear them all or do they just sit in your closet? Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
danielp6406 Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 Wow, daniel, how long has it taken you to amass that collection? Do you wear them all or do they just sit in your closet? Greetings Bubba :-) I think I began (seriously) buying heels around year 2003 or 2004. None of my shoes or boots sits in my closet. More than 50% them I now wear in public. ( It was not like that 1 year ago ) Boots with lower heels/wedge or no heels I wear fully exposed over jeans Shoes with chunky heels/wedge any height I also wear fully exposed The remaining (stiletto type) I wear around the house since they are a little bit too "girly" looking But I admit the more "girly" shoes or boots are those which looks the best... (I would really like to wear stiletto shoes and boots in public but my brain is "not ready" yet...) Tomorrow I intend to wear these http://www.hhplace.org/guys/15856-who_has_bought_some_new_boots-39.html#post256101 with black jeans to work.
jay jay Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Hi there Danielp6406 yes I do the same as you wear the low heels or block heels under my jeans but the stillettos and the wedge heels I wear at home
Mindsflight Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Oh how i wish i had smaller feet for more choice, .. also more money would help haha
roniheels Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 I have to ask this question. Those with over a hundred pairs of high heels in their collection, how do you decide what ones to wear and how often do you wear them? Are there some you hardly ever wear or have hardly ever worn?
DProud2700 Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 I stopped counting. I have 6 large boxes full of "summer season" shoes in the cellar, and about 8 boxes of "autum/winter season" shoes for using now. I am the same way. I stopped counting and have about 5 large boxes. Infact I am starting to clear out the pairs that either too high, too geeky looking, or just don't fit into my fashion styles.
steve6 Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 I just change my shoes every couple of hours through the day. That way I get to wear all the current favorites. Then every week or so, I'll pull out some shoes or boots from another cupboard and start to wear them. When I buy new shoes or boots, that sort of triggers a slight 'clean out' thought and I might throw out a pair or two that don't fit so well or that I don't enjoy. But it is not very rigorous, and somehow the number of shoes and boots in my collection just seems to grow My real focus is on new ways of storage rather than reducing my collection.
kikepa Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 More than I can dump at Goodwill! gah... More than I can wear on a daily basis, that's for sure. Those who really care about us don't make a fuss about what we wear. Those who make a fuss about what we wear really don't care about us.
pussyinboots Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 It's somewhere waay over 500, but to be honest, I've lost count now..... "Good Girls keep diaries....Bad Girls just don't have the time...!:icon_twisted:"
