although this may have been done before, what is your favorite heel height?
I like 3 to 4 inch heels, block or stiletto.

I actually have two favorite heel heights. When I am dressed in one of my french maid uniforms, which is how I dress the most, I like wearing 6" heels. When I am dressed in a skirt and blouse, dress, or anything else I normally wear a 3" or 4" heel.

I prefer 3 inch heels, but want 4 or 5 inch stillettos. Whats more important to me, is the color of hose.

I prefer anything with a 3 1/2" to 4" heel.Anything higher and I probably would fall over. Furthermore I am 6' 3" without heels so anything higher and I'll look like a female sasquatch.

realy the higher the better but if your going to walk for any lenth of time then 3 to 4 inch are the way to go . anything lower feels like flats ..... higher looks hot but you just can't stay in the for more than a couple of hours...........

3-4" narrow heels, not stilettos though, haven't quite got the hang of balance. Never did manage to ride a bike either when I was young(er).

Just bought a pair of 4" strappy sandals off eBay and so drooled over the thigh length red pvc boots with the 6" steel stilettos, BUT know (a) I couldn't wear them and (b) wouldn't be able to afford them and NOT wear them! Oh decisions, decisions!

:D

Although I usually wear 4" to 5" heels when at home I almost always choose 3" heels when I go out shopping. I just seem to be more comfortable weaing the shorter heel when I have to be on my feet for a while.

My platform heels are for the bedroom. If I were to go out, It would be in aheel no higher than 3" or so. Don't want to attract too much attention.

I prefer 2.5" - 3" but pick 1-2 for polling purposes. I like 2.5" classic pumps and 3" strappy Sandals.

First of all,,I`m never fully dressed unless I`m wearing a nice pair of heels...Secondly,,,their height is minimum of 3 1/2 to a max of 4 1/2 otherwise I wont even buy them.....Walking in a sexy pair of highheels is so much a part of feeling and looking fem!!!

hehe... lots of tall women here...

In the words of Bill Bailey - "It's the first time my mum saw a six foot black transexual. Trying to explain that to her... 'She's tall' ... no mum, she's a...oh never mind."

hehe..... well I laughed. :(

I am totally with HotLust here, 3.5" is perfect but hosiery is the key!

Okay, so I lied! I really like 5" heels but they're hard to walk in.

Oh-My!-------what a beautiful, sexy foot!!!!!!!!!! :p------The pink shoe, with your choice of hose, is only complimented by the way you present your foot, beautifully arched, and VERY SEXY! :p

If I'm wearing a mini skirt, then I want me legs to look as sexy as possible, so I will usually go with a 5 inch. But 3 to 4 inch is best overall. You still have the feminine heel going but they are nice and easy to walk in.

Just received a pair of 4" stiletto's (from eBay) white patent and strappy, if I get a chance (when!) to wear them, if anyone is interested, I'll take a picture and post it?? There are rather nice!

Maybe someday.

About 2 1/2 inches seems to work best for me. It gives me enough of a pump and yet it still looks professional and is comfy and balanced well enough to walk in.

To be honest I didn't vote because I can't wear any of the heights listed as options in the poll. As I have aged (and I might add "not gracefully") the height has gone down. As I have lived as long as I have and trying to streach my longevity I'm now into flats or maybe just a hint of a heel. HOW is wish I could wear some of the heights you girls talk about. If I tried to wear a five inch heel I guarantee you I would kill myself or at least break my neck in the process.

Nothing beats a pair of platforms, the higher the better.

I prefer 2-3 inch heels -- don't like anything higher than 3 inches because I feel like I'd break my ankles. I have bad ankles anyway, so 2 or 2 1/2 inches are what I almost always wear.

I like 5 - 6 inches heels because they make my legs look great. However, I have to agree, that I can't wear them for more than a few hours. If I lounging around home, I go for 3 - 4 inch wedges.

I like the 2 1/2 inch size. good practicle height with balance but also enough to show off legs pretty well. can wear them all day too.

2 1/2 inches can look good either as stiletto, arched heel, pump heel, or big solid heel type.

You get a better colour range at this height level too - makes it easier to match with outfits.

1-2 inches for me. They're a good balance between wanting to walk fast and killing myself.

I wear mostly heels between 3"-4". They make me feel so feminine expecially my strappy heeled sandals. Block or stilletto doesn't make much difference to mean however stilletto is more feminine. Heels definitly shoe off my legs the best in a skirt or dress.

Below is a link to my ablum with a few of my over 200 pair shoe collecton:

If I'm staying at home, I like my 5 inch stillettos. If I was to ever go outside then I think I would like a more sensible 2-3 inch shoe.
