I looooove my heels and I very rarely wear flats. I’ve no problems walking (can’t run in them - but have managed the art of walking briskly) in my heels and my heels are generally 2 1/2 to about 4 inches - depending on the shoes.
I was looking at the recent stylestrpped column on shoe trends:
And the shoes seem insane. So the question ladies is, how high will you go? What is an okay heel height for daily/normal wear heels and what is your limit for heel height - at what point does it become ridiculous?
On a daily basis wearing heels, I just cant do it. I only wear heels when i go for a night out. And any inch is fine when im out. (until the next morning when my feet just die on me!!) But on a daily basis i always get blisters and what not. I would wear some of those heels on that site, Their quite pretty.
I would SO love to try out the gray one- but I won’t wear it unless its someone’s wedding and stuff. I LOVE my heels, but make sure they’re comfortable and you have to have enough practice or it doesn’t look nice. My winter boots have to have atleast a 3-4 inch heel, summer I wear flats along with sandals. and I LOVE trying out shoes just for the hell of it!
The highest I have worn was 5 inches to my cousin’s wedding - those shoes are HEAVEN!
The highest heels I currently own are 5 inches but I did have some platform peeptoes that were 6 inches.
I love my heels and I’m not exactly short at 5’6". My mum and sister are shorter than me and I love towering over them when I’m wearing my heels
Sehrysh, if you think those shoes are insane you should check these out
When I am dressed up for evening events… 4-5 inches. My highest pair of heels are 5 1/2’’ and I am in luv with them. For those of your that have the 6 inchers… where are you getting them from!!! I wannnttttttttttt.
My fiance picks on me that some of my heels are “borderline stripper” heels… but I don’t care . lol. I’m only 5’1’’ …I Need all the heel I can get!
OMG: to the Victoria Beckham boots!!! I think they look so funky without the heel!
I like wearing flats on a daily basis. If I wear my boots they tend to have a 2 inch heel which is not bad at all. For parties I can wear 3.5 inch heels. Some of my shoes that I have never worn have a huge heel. I really don’t know why I bought them because whether i’ll be able to walk in them is questionable
On a side note Victoria Beckham’s boots look awful. Me no likes
These are the highest I’ve seen, Alexander McQueen’s 10-inch heels that Lady Gaga wore and that 3 top models refused to walk down the runway in, worried for their safety.. I love skyscraper heels but I’ve never seen such an ugly style in my life, apparently they’ve been popular for ages in the fetish market..
I understand the lure of shoes that are “conversation pieces” or “art pieces” - they’re funky. But when do 5, 6 and even 7 inch heels become stripper shoes? Or is it less the height of the heel and more the design of the shoe that makes it stripper-esque?
^ I think it’s the style rather than the height of the heel that makes some shoes look stripperish, i think esp the ones with more of a platform, I do like the look of them tho.. I love high wedges as well..
the alexander mcqueen shoes are disgusting. did he consider any visual aesthetic before designing? its a visual lump made to make you feet look like dinosaur toes.
other than that. i really really like heels. but i cant wear them on a daily basis. on special occassions or on that one random day when i just feel like looking special
but i really have to be careful with how high i can go, cuz my husband isn’t 6’ 2" you know.
Highest i ever wore was 6 inches and Im 5’7.5" so I felt like a friggin Tower and now i just stick with 2-3 at most and this way i dont have the birds eye view at a wedding or a party.
I’d like to think these are just art pieces and will never be worn. But given the crazies out there, wouldn’t put it past a lady of the night or Paris Hilton or Victoria Beckham to actually buy and wear these.
