Are you a heels wearer?? I usually don't wear them as i'm 5'9" already so anything with a small heel on them make me very tall. However I have to wear heels when I go out with DH as he is 6'4". ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

Not really a heels fan but do wear them when I go out they make your legs looked longer.
I normally just make do with my skate shoes or in summer Jandals unless I have to dress up for something. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  Was danni-chick Mum to James My Angel 28/07/08 |

not during the day but ALWAYS if I'm going out in the evening. I'm 5'5" and DH is 6'3" so I kind of have to too- plus they're slimming! I wish I got more chances to wear them though  ------------- Jen, Charlotte 7 & Kate 3

I can't stand heels.  It doesn't help that I'm 5"9 and DF is 6'1 anyway, but they are so horribly uncomfortable that I wouldn't bother with them If I was tiny!-------------

I love heels...almost everything I own has heels...I've recently relented and worn jandals during summer otherwise it's heels all the way. B is also a full foot taller than me so it helps with the height diff here too! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I have lots of heels. But I haven't worn them much since about half way through pregnancy and now when I wear them to go out I get sore feet cause I'm not used to them

Sometimes, but not a lot other wise Id be taller than DF a little ahah, hes not that tall(but not short either). If I wear them they are just kitten heels. I prefer my boots and stuff. And in summer, its jadels for me  especially this summer! I would fall over if I wore heels now being 6 months preggers haha
And like Stacey said, next time I wear them I probably wont be used to thema nd they will hurt like hell  ------------- |

I love heels, I feel really short in bare feet.
I do have a few pairs of jandals i've worn over the summer. In winter I have to wear heels as the legs on my pants are always too long. joys of being 5ft 2in ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">   [/url] Angel June 2012 |

Yeah Hubby and I are almost the same height-wise so if I wear heels I'm a bit taller. I do wear them if we're going somewhere nice though, I don't feel dressed up without them!
Plus they make my legs look heaps sexier! ------------- Mel, Mummy to E: 6, B: 4 and:

I used to live int hem, back in the day when I only dated really tall guys. But then I started dating short guys and not only are they lovely, I can wear flat shoes, lol! Then i married a shortie so hardly ever bother with heels these days. -------------

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. ------------- Mr Mellow (16) Miss Attitude (8) Destructa Kid (3)

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. ------------- Mum to Natasha Aroha 9/12/1995, Alexandra Makareta Waimarie 22/4/1998 and....Alyssa Frances Hopaea 18/03/2007

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! ------------- Andie |

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. ------------- Janine and her 2 cool chicks, Paris & Ayja

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. -------------  |
