I'd put that second pair on a shelf and gaze at them!  One can always dream! 

Buy them both! I love shoes! Those have hidden platforms so won't feel as high as they look, they'll look fab with jeans Last night I wore my louboutins whilst in my pj's, drying my hair! Like I'd wear them outside the house!

 

you could even use the heels to hold the shelf up   I love the first pair, although I think I'd be having a Dick Emery moment trying to walk in them 

Hoochie I just adore shoes and have a pretty big collection, nothing expensive, just different styles and colours but those print ones (are they cheetah print??) would be a great addition.

 

Sweet I am glad you confessed to that because I do it too!  The ones that I fear are too high for drunken nights out because I'm in fear of the floor being all tiled and me going on my ass.  So I wear them at home to try to get my bearings with them but more often than not they never make it out the door   Maybe someday though

I'm leaning towards the first because I can wear tights with them.  Then I could put the 2nd on my xmas list.  There are loads of pairs that I want but I think the sensible thing to do would be buy one pair, see if I can walk ok and make sure they don't fall apart after one wear, then buy some more.

Oooh, the mental images you have conjured up.

No harm in that at all Ells, I learned to balance in heels on carpet! Some are just too nice to scuff too

 Lots of words come to mind looking at these shoes ......sensible wasn't one of them

*Snap*   

The shoes might not be sensible but I really thought I was being sensible there 

Ells is now thinking we're old gannys Hoochie. Hmmm *strokes hairy chin*   

 In body perhaps ....but  in spirit I'm 26! 

 

Man made....

The thought didn't even cross my mind

 

Now those shoes seriously make me shudder. My daughter has been left home for many years (only lives up the road) but ........if I know she's gone out in silly shoes I'm all on edge. I sprained my ankle really bad, (was in plaster) many, many years ago ............................silly shoes make me cringe!

 

clarkes all the way!

 

I'll be having nightmares about those shoes Syd!

Ohhh i love the second pair, not so keen on the first.

 

There's my shoes, They are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO comfortable and cosy!

These are the shoes I am hoping to slip my Christmas stockings in to...

 

This is as high as I dare go (I'm getting these next week) - only if I feel comfortable and 'safe' in them though. It really is all about comfort with me!

 

 

 

Sooz most of my shoes are normal safe heel size too.....I'm more keen on enjoying the dancing on a night out than having on skyscrapers but I just have a shoe obsession and have lots of pairs that are for one off occassions (like a party that I know I'll be sitting down for most of the night lol).  I also don't mind lending my mates a pair when they ask, I just like knowing that the poor things are actually getting an outing   (the shoes, not my mates )

 

I'm really glad that block heels have come back into fashion though, I can wear them without the fear of going over on my ankle!
