I got her to do it last time, two in orange and two in brown. The shoes may be cheap (and look decent) but they don't last long! How long does a pair of heels usually last?

I was talking about just regular strappy black heels, open toe, nothing fancy. Something like this, but maybe not with so much behind the achilles area.


Just simple, nothing fancy. Used to be everywhere in Bangkok but apparently not anymore. I just think they're worth my wife having a couple of pairs of.

I've done that.
If I can find a pair that's comfortable, why not?

My heels last a long time, because I have so many pairs I don't wear the same ones all the time- maybe twice a month, if that.

I hate to see shoes where the heels are worn down and twisted-looking.

^^futuristic!

funny you use the word "futuristic," that's a computer password i used for many years.

And some folks think rubber thongs and crocs are cheap and tacky. Everything ain't for everybody but you don't have to be a dick about it.

SCNDLS said:

Just giving my opinion, is all. I think that's ok. You've never been known to go that extra, aggressive mile in giving yours now have you.

AndGodCreatedMe said:

And I've paid over $1000 for a pair of shoes MANY times. That's what I like, it's my money, and I don't judge what others spend their own money on so I wish folks would quit already with questioning the expense. What people think is expensive and what they choose to spend their money on is quite relative and personal to their situation.

I don't know why these threads ALWAYS end up like this. If it ain't for you, either add something that is to your liking or shut the fuck up, already.

Fauxie said:

You coulda gave your opinion without shitting on the taste of 90% of the folks who've posted on the thread. I don't go out of my way to directly tell folks their taste is shitty, especially when folks have gone out of their way to post so many shoes they like for the purpose of having a good time . Your comment seemed pointedly mean when all you had to do was post something YOU liked.

Anyway . . .

Wendy was wearing these last week and although, I've seen them in the store before seeing them on made 'em grow on me.

SCNDLS said:

All that, or you could just ignore posts you don't like and keep it moving, posting more pics or whatever. Take it easy. Most of the shoes here just aren't to my taste, that's all, so I said as such. That probably shouldn't really affect you like this. Was just an observation. As I said, I'm no fashion guru, just noted how out of line so many of the shoes were with my personal taste.

4 me, these could be some freeky fantasy foot-two-sahs. i'm liking these

SCNDLS said:

See those would catch my eye, just because of the pleasing combo of colours that just kinda resonates with me. If I saw them I'd walk on by but keep thinking about them before eventually telling the missus there was definitely something about them and that she should go back and try them on.

Re the previous posts, sorry to anyone I offended with my overly mean criticism of their taste. It's all in fun, as SCNDLS said, and anything that makes people happy is a good thing. My bad.

Fauxie said:

Just cuz I comment on it certainly doesn't mean I am "affected" by it so no need to tell me to take it easy. I'm making an observation that this is pretty typical anytime I start these threads that someone invariably comes on talking shit about what myself and others post instead adding something positive. And you did more than just state that it wasn't your personal taste. You said:
"Maybe I'm clueless but I'm seeing some fucked up taste here. I would not be cool with my missus wearing most of these god-awful shoes. Just sayin'"

And . . .

"Looked it up, scrolled through with her, and damn if 90% of the shoes posted here aren't fugly as hell."

That's definitely more than stating your personal taste, but whateves . . .

I really like the ones on the right. Are they orange?

Totally unrelated, but today I took a couple of pieces of art to get framed (including my new MJ piece) and I put a bright orange matte around the other pic. I can't wait to see it when it's done. And that MJ piece is truly gonna be Off the Wall.

SCNDLS said:

Oh sorry, it's quit early overhere so I misunderstood yo.

AndGodCreatedMe said:

No biggie

SCNDLS said:

WHAT NEW MJ PIECE?!

SCNDLS said:

wow, um...
you came back to this thread with a vengence...

SCNDLS said:

I'd DEFINITELY wear those!
They're an example of how a shoe can BE the outfit.

She has quite the temper. Feisty!

I just bought this shoe in a "pumpkin orange" patent leather...




My camera & I haven't been getting along, or I'd show the actual color.
