BobHH Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 What do I think? A little too high for wearing out and about - 5+ in. would be better and also looks good. Don't care for the "peep toe" - better to show off pretty toes if you have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyFeat Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 Those are beautiful. WIth he right pedicure, they would just bring out the calves wounderfully. I myself like the peep toe, but I am could never do mules. Style is built from the ground up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffB Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I've never been a fan of mules, in my mind, they're terribly impractical and not all that attractive or seductive either. And anything with six inch heels borders on ridiculous as I'm much too practical to even wear such things indoors, never mind outside. Still, LailaLily, if you like shoes like those, more power to you. I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LailaLily Posted October 27, 2007 Author Share Posted October 27, 2007 I thought all mules were peep toe? i dont commonly see a closed toe mule. But again, I like the height and the arch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Shoe Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I can manage 6" heels but mules that high are a bugger to walk in on the grounds that they twist as you walk so that your heel doesn't always land on the footbed.

LailaLily Posted October 27, 2007 Author Share Posted October 27, 2007 But to me, 6" pumps or mules are not the type to run a marathon or walk a mile in obviously...just really short steps, and most of the time u can sit and dangle them, look cute Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canadianbeaver17 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I have the first pair. They are surprisingly comfortable and easy to walk in. I don't know for outdoor wear, but I have tried them on with bottoms and they do look passiable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LailaLily Posted October 27, 2007 Author Share Posted October 27, 2007 you can either get them in 6" or 5" and patent or leather...so there is quite a variety. I think theyre really nice..I have it and it looks hot when u pair it with a nice wrap dress or a casual/sultry looking dress and ur makeup done....HOTTTTTTTT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would make a long(er) skirt look fantastic. However, the patent would be for a more "dressy" look. Style is built from the ground up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LailaLily Posted October 27, 2007 Author Share Posted October 27, 2007 its really nice thought because i also wear it with this pretty diamond anklet and red nailpolish or a pedicure......perfect for a dresy formfitting skirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy N. Heels Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 I don't like mules. To me they're only half a shoe and useless. Well, I can't completely agree about useless - they have been known to provoke some real fireworks in the bedroom. But I have to admit, they aren't worth much outside of the bedroom.

pussyinboots Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 I adore mules - and have some delicious Red patent 6-inchers from Westward Bound: http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o95/pussyinboots/Red%20Six-inch%20Spikes%20-%20Bare%20Legs/BootsandHighHeels213.jpg http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o95/pussyinboots/Red%20Six-inch%20Spikes%20-%20Hose/HighHeels004.jpg http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o95/pussyinboots/Red%20Six-inch%20Spikes%20-%20Hose/BootsandHighHeels148-1.jpg http://i118.photobucket.com/albums/o95/pussyinboots/Red%20Six-inch%20Spikes%20-%20Hose/HighHeels005.jpg "Good Girls keep diaries....Bad Girls just don't have the time...!:icon_twisted:" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JNR Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Love the color. They're 100% feminine and very seductive. I Wouldn't want to ruin them by wearing them out on the street (especially if it is raining) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvheels Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I think a mule like that should be worn with short denim daisy dukes only on a female. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrimper Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Have you ever spotted a shoe on someone and thought it was hot, then when you tried it it didn't look like much? Quite often the attractiveness of a shoe depends on who's wearing it. Case in point: I hate platforms but one day PiB showed up in some platform mules that set me all a-flutter. Had to do a lot of rethinking after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pumplover Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Mules are sexy though not many can wear them to really bring out the sexiness in them. I believe to wear mules properley, you really need a sexy foot and I dont mean just splash on some nail polish and thats it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LailaLily Posted November 18, 2007 Author Share Posted November 18, 2007 SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TRUE PUMPLOVER...THERE SHOULD BE A THREAD ON THAT..........some people think adding green or pink nailpolish will make their feet "pretty"..NOOOOOOO....theyre suppossed to be naturally pretty in the first place...nailpolish only enhances the beauty...just like makeup...if a person is ugly...makeup doesnt work miracles..it MAINLY enhances beauty that u already have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that money, spent for nothing, but for the vanity factor. Maybe it's true! I hated that caked look anyway, especially on the big toe. Oh yeow! Mules? To me it depends on the people wearing them and those observing their use as to the effect. Of course that could be said of most any footwear. TAHUHUH! If they aren't fitted right the toes extend over the end of toe area and the high heel sticks out like the porch of a building or they look like the foot will either slither or melt off at any given moment. Personally, wearing them has not been in the priority list. They seem like an expensive excuse for wearing something that give you no real support other than to raise the heel of the foot, as has been mentioned. They can be stylish and attractive, but I prefer a well made stiletto pump with ovally rounded or short pointed toes that has also been properly fitted. They, at least, keep you from slithering off.

Puffer Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 What do I think? A little too high for wearing out and about - 5+ in. would be better and also looks good. Don't care for the "peep toe" - better to show off pretty toes if you have them. I thought all mules were peep toe? i dont commonly see a closed toe mule. But again, I like the height and the arch. I think there is some confusion here, equally applicable to discussion of other types of shoes and sandals. Mules with closed toes do of course exist, with or without high heels. But this thread is dealing with the common open-toed mule, as the first posting shows. I think BobHH is commenting on (and disliking) those mules that have a small front opening that exposes less than most or all the toes - he calls it a 'peep toe' but that is really a very small opening (whether on a shoe, sandal or mule) showing little or nothing more than the big toe. Many mules show most or all of the toes and he prefers that style, as indeed do I. Perhaps posters should consider the distinction between a true peep toe, a more open toe and a closed toe when describing shoes in general. But it ain't easy to categorise something like a shoe (or sandal!) with a perforated side or top that is neither a fully enclosed toe nor open enough to show anything of the toe tips/nails. I have never seen a fully comprehensive definition of a sandal; suppliers seem content to call something with both an open toe and an open heel either a shoe or a sandal as the fancy takes them. As always, a picture is worth a thousand words! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
