   The only shoes I've got are jandals. Even my good shoes for going out are jandals.  I can't do heels.  I think I've got one pair with a chunky heel.  You wouldn't catch me in stiletto heels, I'd fall over.

   I used to do heels a lot, but that was back in the day when I used to go out a lot too!! I prefer wedge heels now, as I find them a lot more comfortable - and they are so cute!! Really only wear heels now if going out for a special occassion!!

   I'm more a boots or chunky sandal girl, this year is the first year in ages that I actually have flat sandals usually they are at least 2 inches thick and my boots are about 3 inches high. 
 I really need heels as I'm only 5'4" and at work I can't reach the hot water for my tea without being on tip toes.

   I wear them at every opportunity I get.  Since I like to walk places though, that's not so often, but usually once a week I'm in shoes with a bit of ooh-la-la goin on.  Ella loves trying them on too!

   I used to wear heels all the time, and i don't mean plain heels, i mean the tallest fricken heels in the hsop kinda heels, when i went out on the town, with short skits and skimpy tops.. but then i was 18, tiny and very short, so the heels and the short skirts made my legs look long(er). But in between i would wear heeled boots all the time anyway
 
 after having kids and getting sore legs i stopped wearing heeled shoes as much, cos my legs ached with wearing them. 
 
 At work i wear flats, obviously, but when i go out, i still wear my high boots, and stilettos etc depending onwhere i am going, cos all my dress pants are far too long anyway.   I love my heels.

   I usually only wear them on more dressy occasions - weddings and the like. Love the look but I get such sore feet! Even at our wedding - as soon as we sat down at the table I took them off and spent the rest of the night in bare feet    I live in jandals as well - have the jandal tan lines on my feet to prove it lol (and I don't tan so that's quite an achievement!) Starting a new job soon though so might need to get some dressier jandals!

   Sorry Paws, but nope - I'm 5 ft 1 and a half (that half inch is VERY important!!!). I usually wear flats, can't walk in heels to save myself, otherwise I wear my boots which have about a 6-7 inch wedge sole...DF is around 5'10 or so, so I'm more on a level when I wear those hehehe Would love to get some small heels for work but they're all so tiny that I can feel my ankles rolling around and would hate to break my ankle (again) from falling off them!!!

   I absolutely HATE jandals!!
 
 I love heels but I haven't worn any since I broke my foot a year ago. If I found some that fit properly (a mission in itself) I'd love some heels for work.
