Yes, i have been tempted to get a pair of theese in black myself, interested to see what they look like on when you get them. They should be a super fit:smile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my6heels Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 mccar7hy, I has been always tempted to buy ones likes these but in black...but are really comfortable to walk out on them or are to much flexible and doesn't fix de ankle and the foot...please give us advice about your experiences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielp6406 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Im sure alot of people have seen these before, but I just ordered these off Amazon... Wow ! Very nice indeed ! As stated by other poster, I am curious to know if they will provide enough support at the ankle. Waiting for your update ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccar7hy Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 yeah I was debating getting them in that color or black and black lost of several reasons, including staining and price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pumpedup Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 It's been a while since i've posted to hhplace. Anyway, i bought some second-hand pumps recently that i like. They are made by Bandolino, and are blue and white. I like them a lot! They have a cute design to them. Check out the pics! Sorry about the pics being low quality. http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o47/pumpedup_2007/wowbaby/PA160045.jpg http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o47/pumpedup_2007/wowbaby/PA160049.jpg http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o47/pumpedup_2007/wowbaby/PA160049-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBN Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 I like those blue and white pumps too Nice colours and cute little blue buckle at the toe. I have no idea why, but as soon as I saw them, I noticed they'd go well with a sailor's outfit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pumpedup Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Very stylish! I like the look o fthose pumps! Two thumbs up! I like them a lot, too! I've been wearing them almost exclusively the past few weeks. I just think they look totally feminine and sexy. Someone is always giving up beautiful pumps to a second-hand store. It makes you wonder if they belonged to a deceased woman, or maybe they belonged to a woman who has absolutely no taste, or maybe they hit hard times financially and had to move out of their house, and just had to get rid of everything they own. I have found some incredibly beautiful pumps, in like-new condition, for a song at some thrift shops here in Las Vegas over the years. I imagine that's the way it goes in any city. It just makes you wonder. I would never give up these babies! They are so comfortable! At first, they were a bit tight, but as i wore them in, they feel great! I feel like i'm walking on a cloud.

RonC Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 You didn't indicate what size those are. Just wondering what size you've been able to find in second hand shops. As I need an 11 or 12, there are very, and I mean very, few shoes available for me in the second hand shops. I'd be drooling if I could find a pair like those! They are sweet! Love the buckle and the feminine cut of the shoe. Bandolino has many styles that I enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielp6406 Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Bought some new shoes friday night from ALDO. I was wearing them today at work with grey trouser. They are a perfect fit for size 11. (Shoes from ALDO are usually small for their size but not this one) The toe box is longer than usual so the heel feels a little bit higher See pictures below.

danielp6406 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 daniel, love your new shoes, nice stilleto heels (4 inches??) and look great with your grey trousers!!! How do you walk with them??? The heel is 4-3/4" (120mm) high measured at the back. They are easy to walk but you must do shorter steps. Since there is carpet at the office (except lunch room), it is much easier. BTW, the heel is very thin, I would never wear them outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you live in the U.S., go to the Salvation Army thrift stores, Goodwill stores, and other thrift stores in your city. You might luck out and find some incredibly cute shoes like these. Since this weekend is part of the Thanksgiving holiday here in the U.S., and Friday is the kickoff of the Christmas shopping season, you may see a lot of thrift stores having big time sales, especially now, since times are tough across the country, as far as the economy goes. I'll sure be at the thrift stores this weekend, trying to find some more cute pumps like these Bandolinos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Bandolino myself because the shoes are quite comfortable as well as stylish. Can't miss with a nice pair of two-tone either. Very nice find. Bought some new shoes friday night from ALDO.

HappyFeat Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Though I haven't been able to make it out much recently, I have had a handful of time in November that I could go out. On two outings, I couldn't resist and picked up two new shoes and a pair of boots. The first pair I bought was at Bakers. I had some time to kill and thought I would just see if they had anything interesting. I tried on about a dozen pair and bought these. They are Bakers "Kamilla" with about a 1" platform, a 4 inch stiletto and a buckle across the vamp. These may be the tallest shoes I own. The second pair is a pair of Nine West "Hotpepper." They are purple (I have been wanting a pair of purple shoes, I don't know why...) with a 3/4" hidden platform, a 2 3/4" heel, and a round toe. They are quite comfortable and a lot of fun. The third pair are Nine West "Gorro" boots. I have the same pair in red and the manager of the store held these babies for me. These are snakeskin with a 4 inch stiletto heel and pointed toe. I actually wore these out of the store. They do come in brown and black as well and would recommend these to anybody looking for come cool and comfortable boots. Style is built from the ground up!

PatentHeel Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 I bought two pairs today, these are my favourite of the two. Was funny buying these, I wasn't the only guy out to buy heels. There was another guy, much older than me who said he was buying them for his daughter as we scanned all the heels on the wall. My eyes working overtime to find that perfect style. I asked the assistant for my size in the two selected pairs, when she brought them out I joked "am i alright to try them on", she looked a little surprised before I replied "your alright I'm only joking". I tell you what though if I hadn't have been so close to work, i'd have been tempted to try them on. She did inform me that there had been guys who'd been in the store previously and had tried them on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatentHeel Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Those make a statement! Details: where did you buy them, what did they cost, what is the height? I bought them in a fashion shop local to me over here in the Northwest of England. I think the highest size is a UK 8 and the heel size is 5 inches. They can be bought from soleaffair on Ebay UK.

Speaking of ALDO, see my next post... Just bought a pair of wonderfull boots at ALDO this afternoon BTW I wish to say thank you to Thighboots for his good taste (See his post #55 in the "Dear Santa" thread: All the credit to him) These boots are simply amazing: Very nice fit and zipper at the back !
