thedesigner Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 style dears, style !! I could get old 4" heel banger boots from the charity shop, big clumpy heels, wide fronts etc., but i'd sooner do lower heels - if i had to - in slimmer current styles. And in a veriety of colours, which again influences my choice !!
Marion Posted February 14, 2008 Posted February 14, 2008 I think style is the most important, but keeping in mind that the style of a pair of shoes depends its height. In public, I wear flatties to 4" heels, but I always choose the style of the shoe to match my outfit. That sometimes -maybe often in fact- leads me to change my whole outfit in order to match the shoes I want to wear for their height. My shoe collection album
Thighboots2 Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Style for me, every time. TB2 Are you confusing me with someone who gives a damn?
wood&metal Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 style............ Never frown because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.
high_55 Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 i didn't vote because i find both important to me, i mean i rather buy shoes at least 3", but i do look after style, because if i don't like it, i wouldn't buy it.
billyb Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 For me it is style the shoes have to match up to what I am wearing and since all of my clothes are men's wear so the shoes have to be in that style, now that being said heel height has to be at lest 3.5" to 4.5 " and some day I do want a pair of 5 - 5.5" heels for fun.
WhyNotMenToo Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 For me it is style too I also feel it's time to end gender based clothing that men should have the same fashion rights as the woman have enjoyed for 60 years. Equality in Fashion!
roniheels Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 I would say style first, heel height second. I am particular about the style of the high heels, but I only wear high heels with a 3 inch heel or higher. I prefer 4 and 5 inch heels that match the outfits that I wear. And I coordinate them with the suits that I wear.
Pumpfan Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 I said style, but for me that mean 5" high stilettos which is my favorite for comfort and good looks. At least as far as I'm concerned.
aussieheels1 Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 style first and height second..... but i suppose the height is a big part contributing to the style
silkyheels Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 I voted style: it's more important to me when I go out because I prefer not to wear too feminine a style of heel. When I'm in the privacy of my own home, however, I like to practise walking in the highest heels I have, which aren't very high yet but will be higher once I've hit the shops with my friends. My answer might change after that!
Griez Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 For me is style i'm tall enought too think about height of em, but easly going on 4-5inch heels i love the height, but mostly important is style every human has they own choices...

roniheels Posted April 20, 2008 Posted April 20, 2008 My choice: 5" feminine high heels both private and public.
johnieheel Posted April 20, 2008 Author Posted April 20, 2008 Last pair of 5" D-orsey white I got have been quite enjoyable and are really easy to walk in. Now I am moving up to my 5 1/4" heels from Pierre salbre. Have not gone public in stilettos yet. real men wear heels
t-strap lover Posted April 20, 2008 Posted April 20, 2008 for me, style is important.Heel hieght can play a role in the style. Also I agree with everybody on this post. t-straps are my favorite style.
DeSalto Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 Both. I'm always looking for the highest heels in certain styles, like strappy sandals or d'orsays. Very stylish shoes without heels or common style shoes with high heels don't catch my eyes. No shoe is better than a sexy pair of stilettos!

Now I am moving up to my 5 1/4" heels from Pierre salbre. Have not gone public in stilettos yet. I guess I dare to be daring. I always wear stilettos in public. I probably haven't heeled as many places as you have. But I'm getting more daring every day.

rguyff Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 For me, it is about the height. I love stilletos, the taller the better. No platforms though. I like the height to be in the heel. I'm wearing a pair of 5 inch red pumps as I type this.

I'm wearing a pair of 5 inch red pumps as I type this. I agree. I always wear at least 4" and most of the time 5" high heels when I go out in public, or even at home. My high arch and narrow foot feel more comfortable in a higher heel.

My high arch and narrow foot feel more comfortable in a higher heel. Well I have big (13) flat feet but I'm not going for comfort here. I'm after shoes that I think look hot. I just love the look of a high stiletto heel. Also, unlike a lot of people, I think closed pumps are sexier than strappy high heel sandals.

Whatever our personal reasons, it sounds like we're on the same page concerning our choice in high heels.
JeffB Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 While I've already voted here and explained my reason, I want to reiterate the importance of style over height. Just yesterday, I bought a cute pair of plain black pumps from Payless with short, thin heels (3 inches), and damned if those shoes don't look downright sexy, what with the pointed toes and overall profile. Also, these shoes are quite comfortable, and that means a lot to me. In my opinion, a relatively low heel can exude its own brand of sex appeal if they style of the shoe is just right. I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
