roz Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 A larger version of my avatar is attached, and thought I'd say a bit about it here as someone asked in another thread (and a couple have PMd me too). Basically it was after I left Wet 'n' Wild in America when I was on holiday. I had to scuttle across the car park back to my hotel and then I was going out to a theme park, so couldn't be bothered to tie up the straps on my shoes again so just walked across the car park like some kind of puppet. There aren't many pics of me, most (like this one) are a few years old now. I don't always walk around like that, although I suppose it could be a new trend.
johnieheel Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 Although I was not asking, I thought it was just cute:winkiss: real men wear heels
billyb Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 Hey Roz Great Pic you even make untied shoes look sexy.
foxylady Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 Looks cool Roz, the way you seem to walk with the strings in the hand. Very nice legs too, so show them proudly FL FoxyLady
roniheels Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 Nice photo and very nice legs. Thank you very much for sharing this with us.
Guy N. Heels Posted May 1, 2008 Posted May 1, 2008 Although I was not asking, I thought it was just cute:winkiss: Well, I thought it was cute too, but I do have a question, ROZ. In the larger pix it shows bows on the heels. Is that really the way the shoes are to be worn, or did you somehow manage to reverse the strap across the instep? Just curious. Keep on stepping, Guy N. Heels
roz Posted May 1, 2008 Author Posted May 1, 2008 They're small (belt-style) buckles as opposed to bows, I have attached a picture from a photoshoot I did in these same shoes. You can tell it was a photoshoot because I actually went through the effort of tying them up!! They were very old when I wore them to Orlando and had seen better days, and were a hand-me-down that I was given, in fact that was probably the last time I wore them.
balletboot2000 Posted May 1, 2008 Posted May 1, 2008 As ever, your feet and legs look wonderful in the heels. I liked the original as it was cute and amusing, but now it makes sense, it is still a great photo, BB I love the feel of that ultimate lift!

Just a question roz, Do you think these shoes are still available in the shops.... If yes could you help me out, they look really cool and comfortable. Hope they are FL FoxyLady
roz Posted May 1, 2008 Author Posted May 1, 2008 They were pretty comfy, I can't remember which brand they were, but I reakon the photo was taken about 3 years ago, and they were probably about 3 or 4 years old in that picture, so not sure if they're still available. What do you like most about them? The shape or the straps? I'm sure there must be something similar around still, maybe I will have a look as my search for shoes is never ending!!
roniheels Posted May 1, 2008 Posted May 1, 2008 I'll be honest, I'm not the biggest platform shoe fan, as I have stated in previous posts. But as seen in your most recent photo, you have such nice legs and feet that they really do look nice on you. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts and photos.

Ninanoora Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Roz, your avatar looks cool. Hope you like mine too :-) "Even when I'm a mess, I put on a vest... with an S on my chest, oh yes.. I'm a Superwoman.. "
roniheels Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Cute, as always, Nina. Nice job. (Lokks like you're having way too much fun).
shrimper Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 Roz, your avatar looks cool. Hope you like mine too :-) I'm afraid I would finish at the starting line.
roz Posted June 21, 2008 Author Posted June 21, 2008 Roz, your avatar looks cool. Hope you like mine too :-) Whoops, I missed this post! What a great pic, I love all your pics on your Flickr gallery! Anyway, I've added a new avatar, it shows the same shoes just worn properly! See the attached for a larger pic and click here for the original pic of me in the car park from page 1: http://www.hhplace.org/discuss/attachments/hhplace_cafe_-_general_chit_chat/2119d1209569536-about_my_new_avatar-image1.jpg
PatentHeel Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Another fine avatar roz. You have such lovely legs! Love the strappy heels too of course!
roniheels Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Roz... You are the platform heels queen. Nice heels, nice pictures, nice legs....thank you!!!!
PatentHeel Posted July 4, 2008 Posted July 4, 2008 I fancied a change. With the warm weather recently I opted for some bright summer colours with my kneeboots.
Stilettoscot Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 Walking in ultra-highs because it's exciting...and it is!!
Bubba136 Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 I fancied a change. With the warm weather recently I opted for some bright summer colours with my kneeboots. Nice (that outfit surely will turn some heads as you promenade up and down the street looking for new shoes to try on.....) Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
roniheels Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 I fancied a change. With the warm weather recently I opted for some bright summer colours with my kneeboots. Always very eye-catching avatars that you provide. Thank you for for your variety and keep up the good work.
Chrissy85 Posted July 9, 2008 Posted July 9, 2008 I know that I'm late coming to this thread, but that photo of you walking with your shoes untied is cute. Your legs are great too. I wish mine were that nice.
want-hh Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 Roz, that pic made me remember a game where you had to walk with your feet over small buckets and hold these with strings. Does someone remember those?
ChipsHH Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 And another new and fabulous avatar from roz. Love the style, color, and your polished toenails. It's so hot! Formally "HHDude"
