hiddenheels Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 14 hours ago, Cali said: Sometimes the chain will have a website that will tell which stores in a certain region has that shoe in your size in stock. Saves driving around. I've been wearing skinny jeans for years now since I like to wear my knee high boots on the outside. I did try that! On their website they didn't have it in black, only in Neutral color, it's not exactly the greatest website, or stock tracker... 6 hours ago, mlroseplant said: If you're ever in the market again, Steve Madden has another model called "Daisie," which is very similar to the Vala, but without the severely set back heel. Highly recommend, and you can usually find any number of these on Poshmark for quite a bit cheaper. Most people selling them either never wore them, or wore them once. I mean, let's be honest--they are beyond most people's skill set. Try looking for jeans on Poshmark, too! There's a ton of 'em really cheap. Thanks for the tips! You're right, Daisie is very similar, and I'll keep my eye out for them! Never used Poshmark, but will check it out. Found the "nude" version of the Steve Madden's I bought a few days ago. The black ones turned out to be so comfortable and easy to walk in, when I saw the "nude" version, I couldn't resist, although I really need to not buy more stuff now...

I have thus far shied away from buying this style or similar because I always wonder what those thin straps are going to feel like after a couple of hours. Let us know how they wear in the real world at some point, wouldya? I understand that it may be several months before the weather is cooperative.

Mr. X Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 Not sure if these will ever see the light of day @miroseplant I know absolutely that I have pairs of shoes that have never seen the light of day. As much as I love wearing heels, I know for a fact that I have bought shoes that I thought looked good, knowing full well they would never see the sunshine. Hopefully I am wrong about these and they do get to see the outdoors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkrenzer Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Added two pair of loafers. Modified the height to improve the shape and durability of the heels. See the repair posts. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shyheels Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 (edited) I noticed that the New York Times “Wirecutter” product review section did a big piece today on the best sandals. They had a wide range of categories but not a single one, in any category, had heels. All were flat as pancakes - both the category winners and all the others tested. Even the category for women’s dressing up/evening sandals. No heels at all. None of them. That can’t be an accident Edited April 23, 2023 by Shyheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have many Jessica Simpson stilletoes and I find her heels a little tight, so I get most of hers in size 11. But these were to large for me is size 11. So I had to get them in size 10. I have a big toe box so I like adjustible toe boxes like these have. I will also have to add extra holes to both straps, but I have a leather hole puncher that makes this easy to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. X Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Here is my latest. They are from Aldo. The heel measures just under 4 inches. They are animal print, but they are patent at the same time. And the animal print and patent is on the bottom of the shoe as well, which I have never seen before. And the best part is they were only worn once, and I got them on a local buy and sell for 10 bucks! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These certainly are unique, can’t say as I have seen a pattern continue across the the sole like that! I like them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jkrenzer Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Interesting shoes. I'd prefer a higher heel but 10 bucks at a thrift. I never see heels of any value in size 10 or larger at thrifts near me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. X Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 I wish the heel was a little higher also. But for only 10 bucks I wasn't going to complain too much lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One pair is a sz11 half d'orsay cut that misses the widest part of my foot and the other is a pair of pumps in sz12 that I had to add a heel liner to absorb the added length. Dillard's website is listing the Prizma half d'orsay in wide width even in extended sizes FYI. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I finally found my hole punch and added extra holes. All I needed to do was add only one more hole to each strap. I know I will have to use blister bandages on the small toes as I break them in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
