char747 Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 Hi everyone, oddly enough today I went shopping for heels in real life for the first time. I went to a payless a bit out of the way and it was pretty quiet, a few other people in the store and one clerk who was busy putting some new display up. (oddly enough a display of the very shoes I was there for ) http://www.payless.com/store/product/detail.jsp?catId=cat10376&subCatId=&skuId=096303100&productId=71602&lotId=096303&category=&catdisplayName=Brands I am definitely a fan of the girly style. The more pink, color, the bigger the bow, the slimmer the stiletto.. not sure why but, that's my preference. I tried on a few pairs and finally found those that I was looking for. (I am jealous of you guys blessed with smaller feet that can fit in a larger selection and availability of heels... Just putting that out there. ) So I unpacked both shoes and slipped them on and I felt very liberated being in public for the first time in high heels. I walked up and down the isle a few times to make sure they fit well and I boxed them up and made my purchase, with none other than a 15% off coupon. So That's my quick story of my first time in public with heels.. and on a deal even. also as soon as i can get the pics off my phone I will post some here. I didn't get any in the store unfortunately, was to nervous to think of it then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not 100% sure, but you might need to have 5 posts made before you can add pictures. Looking forward to your next posts. Very well done, on your shoe trying/buying outing.

char747 Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 Thanks all! I do have quite a large collection of shoes that I absolutely love; however, those were all bought online. So these red suade beauties already hold a special place in my heart as they are my first public heels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FastFreddy2 Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 yeah I'm in MN. Not opposed to eventually going to a heel up. MN? Maine? Manhattan? [i'm in the UK, so am unfamiliar with "MN"?] "Heel up"? ...... Gathering? I think I might be coming across as pretty dense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FastFreddy2 Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 (edited) oh no worries, Minnesota USA Ahhhh. Thank you. We struggle to get group meetings in the UK, even though we only have to travel 50/60 miles, or less. The (more frequent) heel meets in the US might mean travelling 1000's of miles? And while on the subject of meetings ..... Have a peek at some shoes two of us off here saw today. [From another thread.] One from New Look. Same girl, same shoes style, different colour. Second pair look slightly, familiar? ..... Edited July 16, 2012 by FastFreddy2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
char747 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Oh that's so cool! I definitely noticed that's the style these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heelman500 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Welcome and enjoy the site Those are some really nice heels you bought there (Jealous .... You bet) Do you have a lot of scope for heeling outside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
char747 Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 I've got a few places I could try out. I'm in a well populated area so I'm sure to be spotted unless I go at night to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FastFreddy2 Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 I'm in a well populated area so I'm sure to be spotted unless I go at night to start. At night, I've found the noise of a heel can have a surprisingly acute effect on men with reasonable hearing. For some reason the sound of a pair of heels clip-clopping along a path almost guarantees a turned head, looking for the owner? Pick somewhere noisy if possible. A number of us here have started our public heeling adventures at night, before progressing to daytime wearing. A well trodden route, if you'll pardon the pun. Good luck.

char747 Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 There is a lake nearby that I go walking at on a regula basis. Fairly smooth path. I would know the terrain and it would be fairly unpopulated later at night. I'm considering making this my first trial run. What shoes to wear tho?? I may have to pull them out tonight. I'd also get a chance to take more pics for show and tell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are walking around a lake at night, don't forget your lifejacket, unless you are wearing some of >> these << [Link care of Love4heels] Seriously, be careful around water in the dark? ....

Eoneleg Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 My taste in closed heels is a pointed toe pump. But - to me there is something appealing about this pump and I just might find myself being guided to Payless to try one on, and if so, I will relate the experience.

char747 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Posting from mobile so I don't have quote options: Fastfreddy2: The path is a good distance from the actual waterline so I should be good. Thanks though. Love4heels: That is a good idea. I do have a cute pair of flats. Red satin, on the tie they have a little jewel tied into a bow with 4 pearls dangling shortly from there. I'm doing them no justice describing them but I'll have them in my show and tell post. Eoneleg: They are a lot of fun to walk in, with a lot of added height. I like a pointed toe once in a while if the look is right. As long as its not super extreme and extends several inches past the usable toe bed.. I think that tends to look rediculous. I know a few years ago Jessica Simpson wore out that look. Now she's typically wearing a round or square toe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
