jwhite44 Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Not bad from what we can see. Too bad the picture is a little dark. Sorry about that. I DVR'ed the show, then took the composite output from my HD cable box, attached it to capture board on my computer, made an .avi file of the opening segment, then used another program to generate a .jpeg file for that particular scene. I'm sure there's some degradation along the way! On the bright side, it's the same opening every week, so if you tune in 8:15-8:20p ET every Sunday, you can see the entire opening scene with Faith yourself.

Bubba136 Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Eliza Dushku It looks like she's wearing a pair of Louboutin's Pigalle shoes. But, I really like the pair of boots that the gal standing next to her is wearing. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.

And I agree with you on the other girls boots, very nice. I wish we could the whole boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Jennifer Lopez accentuated her long stems in a silver, sparkly jumpsuit and sky high Christian Louboutin pumps at American Idol’s season 10 Press Conference. The performer is the newest addition to the show’s judging panel. [ATTACH]11072[/ATTACH] just how high are those heels??? wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwhite44 Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 just how high are those heels??? wow! Took it as a little exercise to try to figure it out. I downloaded a free ruler program that overlays the screen, and used it on top of an enlarged copy of the picture in Windows Picture viewer to take some measurements. I first measured the total from the top of J's head, to what I thought would be the bottom of her heel. I calibrated that against her published height of 5'6" (66"). I then measured the heel in the same view, and came up with about 5.45". I then enlarged just the shoe, and measured to get the ratio of the heel height to the platform height. If the heel height is 5.45", it puts the platform height at 1.05". I initially thought the platform height was more like 1.25", which puts the heel height at about 6.5". For our metric friends, that works out to in mm about 140/27 or 165/32. I'm going to go with 6.5"/1.25" heights, as both the platform looks higher than 1", and the heel more than a 5.x" height. Then I decided to do a search for "J Lo American Idol shoes", and after piecing together some results, discovered that they appear to be the Christian Louboutin Lady Peep pumps. That has specs of 150mm heel, 50mm platform, which equates to 6"/2". A 4" heigh difference isn't that bad, so I'm sure despite a 6" heel, they were still walkable. Here's a link for more info: http://us.christianlouboutin.com/lady-peep-150mm-13936#product-detailed-view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4 ever heels Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 For me it would have to be Sarah Jessica Parker, now that's a women how can wear a pair of heels. In a written article about her sometime ago, she said that she could just as easily run in heels as she does walk in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you that the heel looks to be more than 6" but the platform is certainly at least 1.25". Has the J Lo picture been stretched to give the illusion of greater height? I don't believe the Louboutin statistics. If the heel is indeed 6" (and I don't think it is quite that high from the Loubi pic), then, by simple scaling of that picture on screen, the platform is scarcely more than 1.5" at the thickest point. The arch therefore is a more acceptable but still wearable 4.5". Perhaps there is some variation according to shoe size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Some pics of Katy Perry. Always a great heel wearer! The last picture with a collection of shoes might be her dressing room. The picture came up while I was searching on google images but it didn't have an obvious note or detail. I can imagine her wearing any and all of them though.

jwhite44 Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 The first picture is just hot all alround. I'm not sure I would have recognized it as being her (not a bad thing) if it wasn't mentioned in the thread. Second picture, maybe it's the toe cleavage, but it looks like she's actually working to stand in those pumps. Other thing that looks strange - the heel appears to be well behind the back of the foot. If that's correct, I'd think that has to be a bit different to walk in than a more regular pair of pump.s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laceups Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Looking at those last few pictures - it´s amazing how extreme heels and overknee/thigh boots now seem to be a must-have for celebs, whereas a couple of years ago the thigh-highs at least were mostly associated with the "Pretty Woman" look. Not that I´m complaining Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leather-boot Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Kind of on topic - does anyone know of any good celebrity auction websites where celebs auction off items of clothing - specifically shoes??? I read an article rescently where Angelina Jolie auctioned off a pair of her shoes as worn in one of her movies. I know they a) would not fit and would cost a bit but I would love to own a pair of her shoes. Scrap that - I would love to own the boots she wore in Mr & Mrs Smith!

Guest Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Gwyneth Paltorw wears Lanvin to the Country Girl Premiere. Amazing! Sorry for the link, somehow the IMG tags don't work. here's a side view.... impressive heels, and see through shoes? http://socialitelife.com/gwyneth-paltrow-bears-the-pain-for-her-lanvin-shoes-11-2010 and half way down here too.... seems these shoes are not so comfortable And it seems Gwyneth Paltrow is also a fan of the heels as she wore the same shoes last night at the Country Strong premiere and paired it with a black Chado Ralph Rucci dress. However, it seems sometimes beauty is pain because Gwynie couldn’t handle the heels. She revealed, “I’m in pain. I feel like I’m in a torture vice.” http://cocoperez.com/category/who-wore-it-better/page/4/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
