The Tevas I snagged at a Ross's Dress for Less. The Timberlands were at the Timberland Outlet at Tanger Five Oaks outlet in Pigeon Forge. They were marked down to $59 from $86 and then had another 75% off. You *may* be able to find the Tevas... they are a pseudo water shoe/ tennis shoe. I really like em.

I did TELL you about the Tevas Pixalu.

I passed on some $39 clarks and $39 Borns... both were very nice shoes but I didn't need another brown leather causal shoe.

Pixie-- I like those shoes-- they're cute... did they come in gold?

My friend insists on gold shoes for her apple red bridesmaid dresses...

here's a picture of what the dress looks like:



I'm only 5'4", so I'm hoping the 4" heels on my shoes will make it so that I don't have to get the dress hemmed!

Why Men are happier:

Just one of the reasons DX..now pay attention

Three pairs of shoes are more than enough. (see DX you don't need all those shoes)

Who says you have to be petite!? LOL!

I have a friend who is 5'10" and it never stops her from wearing heels.
pixie

I hear that, Pixie. I'm 5'10". I love to wear 3-inchers. Sometimes on special occasions, 4". I love it that my boyfriend Jon is tall. ;)
Ruby

wow Ruby that makes you like 6'2"! Very cool!

OK, since this is the shoe thread. I decided after the last guy I dated who was 5'7" that I will only date guys at least 3 inches taller than me, so I can wear my heels! LOL!. Is that petty!? LOL!
pixie
12:27:49 PM
4/11/05

Nope, not at all.

My ex-husband is 5'8". I decided to not ever be taller than my man again. It sucks too much when you wear heels.

I'm actually the shortest one in my family besides my mom. My little sister, three brothers, and my dad are all taller than I am.

dicentra & pixie...
we'll need to re-schedule our Vegas trip for next spring... :-) too hot in the summer! :-)

Cute shoes, pixie. I have really wide feet and a high arch-- I usually have trouble with shoes that are "too strappy" because of the width of my foot (I need the wider straps vs. the thin ones!)

You know, there is something to be said about short men and the "Napolean complex". One of my best friends recently finalized a divorce... Her ex was about about 5'7" or 5'8"... she's 5'10". On top of that, he was also 7 years younger. She told me that from day 1, he had issues about whether or not she "looked up" to him (figuratively...but as it turns out, we think it was a literal situation as well...). Now that he's "free" to date new people, I suspect his next wife (if and when he gets one) will 1) be shorter than him, 2) be younger than him, 3) make less money than him 4) will be less intelligent.... Unfortunately, those were all issues that disturbed him enough to lead to him divorcing my friend... (other issues, too, but those were things that bothered him immensely.)

Several men I know who are shorter in stature have strong issues about whether other people respect them--they feel compelled to "throw their weight around" because they don't think others take them seriously.

Also, I have a few taller (and well-endowed)female friends who notice that short guys would ask them to dance (hmmm... wonder why? "nice set of eyes"... as the saying goes....LOL)

am just a "tom boy" through and through, i guess, haven't worn heels since i school.i will never reveal my shoe size on a public forum, but i do feel much better about them since my pedicure last Wednesday, plans to repeat the procedure on a regular basis are in the works, for mental health purposes

I've never had a pedicure-- I understand that they make your feet feel fabulous! Although I wouldn't want to be the person scrubbing other people's stinky feet! LOL

Funny, men are usually more than happy to post their shoe size on a public forum!!

I mean, "more than happy"........what is that, like nutz??

Well generally the feet go immediately into a tub of hot soapy water, before the manicurist ever touches them. So I don't think it is too bad, nor do they mind. Now my podiatrist on the other hand... LOL!

Geeze I'm surrounded by amazonian women here :D

I like tall girls ;) But... I like short girls better :D Heck... as long as it's a female I guess I'm not too picky ;)

Nope. I'm short. 5'2" and average sized feet.

my ex bf has a size 14.5 foot and had the worst time trying to find shoes that fit! (no, the rumours aren't true either!)

I got my shoes last night! They are SOOOO cute! :-)

They're tall, but very stable and the width is just about perfect. I walked around the house with them on for a few hours to see if they pinched my feet, but so far, so good! :-)

The bummer is that I STILL have to hem my dress-- even with the 4 inch heels, my dress is STILL 3-4 inches too long! I was joking with one of the other bridesmaids that the company must have designed these dresses for someone 6 feet tall! :-)

No, I think pink was asking Gem if her cute silver Ninas came in gold.
I'm not sure what she ordered.

I want pictures! Pink! Pictures! *demanding*

LOL!!!! I think I should have emailed my friend and told her that I got these shoes for her wedding! (I probably wouldn't have to hem the dress then!





Now this is a broken ankle waiting to happen:
