i need a pair of comfortable, YET GLAMOROUS high heels for my Vegas trip in November. Anyone got any ideas!?

I'm sure these are very comfortable, you should get them

Have you tried any of the Cole Haan heels, carl? Since he did that whole nike thing I've heard p good things from my heel-wearing friends about how comfortable they are

though they're pretty $$$

High-heeled boots and shoes with laces or straps are like 300% more wearable ime than pumps or open shoes.

yep, I have found the most comfortable heels i have are usually t-straps or mary janes

Holy whoa I scored the sweetest puppies from my thrift store for like $5

my coworker is wearing (something very similar to) these today

she can't walk in them
she can barely stand in them

from a distance it looks like she has cinderblocks tied to her feet

Someone needs to tell her it is too late in the year for that shit. Cork is out after Steptember, girl.

purveyor of generations (in orbit), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:29 (thirteen years ago)

and she's wearing them with regular jeans which just looks super weird

PS I have a pair of wedges v similar to those but the soles are even worse, they're WOOD, and the uppers are red patent. Still, it is past the middle of October, find some pride.

lol
also otm what is this club med?
no

I have a pair of wedges are similar to those red ones but in green and turquoise. They are less uncomfortable than heels. But they are definitely summer shoes.

tokyo rosemary, Saturday, 20 October 2012 20:40 (thirteen years ago)

I wish I could find a pair of platform sandals with a wider heel. I hate all these narrow heels!

tokyo rosemary, Saturday, 20 October 2012 20:41 (thirteen years ago)

omfg @ those Zanotti's

i FINALLY got my new boots (infinity shoes took 4 weeks to ship!!!!!!): the india wedge boot and the collette ankle boot i mention here

they are way nicer IRL, the india boot is what i've been searching for forever and they are SO COMFORTABLE - like crazy comfy. i was also impressed that the collette boots come with little replacement pads for the bottom of the heels.

just1n3, Thursday, 1 November 2012 00:30 (thirteen years ago)

Nice score, dude! Those are beautiful.

ljubljana, Saturday, 3 November 2012 17:05 (thirteen years ago)

Yes, love them. I have a pair of red Miz Mooz that I love but are slightly small. Has anyone had any success having shoes stretched by a cobbler before?

ENBB, Saturday, 3 November 2012 17:12 (thirteen years ago)

Not recently, but in the UK in the past I have done. Very tiny difference, though. Also, I could swear my feet have grown a bit in the last 5 years o_0

ljubljana, Saturday, 3 November 2012 17:28 (thirteen years ago)

They're really cute so I think I'll give it a shot but it doesn't work i'll come back and see if anyone wants them. :)

ENBB, Saturday, 3 November 2012 20:17 (thirteen years ago)

steviee deux, those shoes are great! ya lucky punk.

Spectrum, Saturday, 3 November 2012 20:29 (thirteen years ago)

My neighbor showed me a really nice pair of I think Cole Haan boots that she got as a gift but were too narrow. They didn't stretch them, they actually sewed in matching colors of leather to add to the width. Nice work. Place in Queens that she likes. This is obv not an answer unless you have a good full-service cobbler around but it could save that pair of boots you just LOVE.

purveyor of generations (in orbit), Sunday, 4 November 2012 00:33 (thirteen years ago)

Got these for the Canadian winter, now for some reason wondering if I did the right thing. Too casual to go with enough stuff? http://www.zappos.com/blondo-marcia-black-santa-fe.

Got a week or so to decide whether to return them.

ljubljana, Saturday, 17 November 2012 22:36 (thirteen years ago)

Woah wait, Zappos is delivering here again? Hallelujah! I think those are really nice but I am a black boot addict. If we get a slushy winter you're going to want some Sorels (or at least I love 'em.. Cozy.)

she started dancing to that (Finefinemusic), Saturday, 17 November 2012 22:42 (thirteen years ago)

they have a pretty sleek sole (instead of heavy/chunky tread) so they should be pretty wearable with dresses/skirts, i think?

just1n3, Saturday, 17 November 2012 22:42 (thirteen years ago)

I like that they are future-boots, but the shape of the heel/wedge isn't a look that I go with, prob b/c I think it's not in proportion for me, but could be for someone else. I would see if they can be waterproofed, maybe?

grossly incorrect register (in orbit), Saturday, 17 November 2012 22:49 (thirteen years ago)

FFM, I bought them in an actual store! Sorry to disappoint...

J - yeah, that aspect of them is good. I guess they're just not 'sleek', a bit athletic in the sole.

Orbit, they're supposed to be waterproof but also I have this spray (of the type that shoe stores flog all the time). Is it possible to get boots permanently waterproofed somehow?

ljubljana, Saturday, 17 November 2012 22:51 (thirteen years ago)

Whoa, FFM, I didn't know about Sorel! Now these are serious: http://www.sorelfootwear.ca/Women%E2%80%99s-Tofino%E2%84%A2-Boot/LL1846,en_CA,pd.html

ljubljana, Saturday, 17 November 2012 22:54 (thirteen years ago)

Yeah, I love the Sorels for the walk to the bus when people haven't shovelled yet! These are similar to mine: http://www.shoptoit.ca/images/detail/82719000/82719779.jpg

Nice!

ljubljana, Saturday, 17 November 2012 23:36 (thirteen years ago)

jawn valjawn (Stevie D(eux)), Tuesday, 18 December 2012 16:33 (thirteen years ago)

they're a little pointier at the toe than I realized but i love love love them! I feel very ~special~ wearing them, even with schleppy normal work clothes

dontcha just love finding out that not one single online image out of hundreds has correctly conveyed the shoe colour you just purchased

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

two weeks pass...

I wear Bass saddle shoes now too...mine are tan with a rich navy color. Great for work casual with colorful socks. I don't have the nerve for black and white ones!

I love my black and whites, though I realized afterwards that all that white at the toe makes my huge feet look HUEG
My mother in-law calls them my "Pat Boone shoes" <3

I got a pair of these for Christmas:

http://a1.zassets.com/images/z/1/7/2/1/7/1/1721711-p-MULTIVIEW.jpg

They're lovely, but I'm honestly a bit scared to wear them- they're the first really nice pair of shoes I've owned in a long time and I'm not sure how to keep from ruining them, aside from being religious about using a shoe tree.

muus lääv? :D muus dut :( (Telephone thing), Friday, 4 January 2013 05:33 (thirteen years ago)

get some good waterproofing spray!!

just1n3, Friday, 4 January 2013 06:35 (thirteen years ago)

Don't quite know why but I just ordered a pair of these:

I bought these today. I never wear this style but they were so cute and so on sale.

I think one must have been a display since one shoe is slightly darker than the other.

wow tokyo those are super cute!

Anyone got recommendations for inexpensive socks? Target are cheap but terrible, Walmart worse.
