    First pair of heels

    My wife wanted me to go to the local Target and get her some shoes that she seen in the paper. When I got there I spotted a lovely pair of heels and just had to have them. I always wanted heels. When I got out to my truck I put them on and drove around for awhile. Here I am, in a big old truck, two days of beard growth and wearing the loveliest pair of heels. I can't wait to try them at home.

    Start with the heels and work your way up! Always fun and exciting to have a new pair of heels! Did you get your wife a pair also? Enjoy!

    Thank You

    I just wanted to say thank you to all that replied. Yes I did get my wife her shoes and no I haven't taken any pictures as yet. I wear a size 10w in mens and bought a 11 in heels. They feel a little tight. Is this normal? Will they stretch out? These are my first pair so any help would be appreciated.

    A little tight is normal, unfortunately. Whether they'll stretch depends on the material, but probably not.

    My mother (who is in her 80s) has a deformed toe from years of wearing pinch-toed shoes.

    Years ago, when I was wearing heels pretty often, I developed "pump bumps" on both feet -- a bone spur on the back of the heel (of the foot), where the Achilles tendon runs down to the sole. And they hurt! I had to wear orthotic inserts with my guy shoes for a number of years.

    So yeah, the cute shoes don't always end up feeling good. For some of us, it is TOTALLY worth it. I'm actually looking forward to getting a couple of pairs of sandals -- completely flat soles -- so I can show off my painted toenails. That's very much the casual fashion these days in California -- and cute!

    I think when I was younger I needed the footwear to get me to walk in a feminine way. I don't think I need it any longer. But I do still love pumps with 3" heels.

    Seen Picture

    Well she seen a picture of the shoes in the paper and sent me off with paper/picture in hand and size she needed. Knowing that if they didn't fit her I would return them..They didn't fit so off to the store again to return them tomorrow. I also picked up a loaf of bread

    Watch out,Jessica! I bought my first pair of heels at Target also, and after I saw myself in heels, there was no stopping me.

    Yes they would be tight, womens shoes generally run two sizes larger than male sizes, I wear an 8.5 mens, and a 10.5 womens.
    Hope you have fun with the shoes, and no blisters!!!

    I wear a men's size 10D or 10W. In a women's that translates to a 11 1/2B or 11 1/2M. Unfortunately other than a few up-scale shoe makers like Stuart Weitzman or Manolo Blahnik not too many make that size, your next bet is a size 12B or 12M. That's what I always wear. And too, I've bought from Target (most of the size 12's are on-line) and Payless ShoesSource (they have size 12's at the stores but the cute ones are on-line).

    So I go with the size 12. I'd rather have them a little big than look like I stuffed sausages into them! LOL Keep in mind there is only 5/16 of an inch difference between a size 11 and a size 12.

    Love, Tracy

    Dixie, check out the www.Snaz75.com web site. They have a huge selection of high heels, some to size 16, at very reasonable prices. They also have a good return policy and frequent discount offers but little to nothing in low to medium heels.
    Hugs, Andi

    Add me to the list!!!!

    I just 3 pairs for myself at Payless - in size 12w. Didn't even hesitate - I WANTED THEM. They fit better than my guy shoes. I absolutely love them. I got a 2 3/4" mule, a 3 " pump and 4" peep-toes. Now I have to work on the rest. I'd wear them all day if I could.

    High heels are a slippery slope to traverse. I know. My shoe room (yes, shoe room) now contains over 200 pairs of shoes and boots.

    I think I have more women's shoes than men's shoes now.

    I also usually wear a 10W for men's shoes, but some size 11 women's fit me but 11W usually fits the best, or a 12. I'm due for a trip to Payless soon, since it's BOGO time again and there are some heels and wedges that I want. Here's one of them:

    And here's the other (in either brown or white):

    Do these shoes look okay to you ladies?

    The first pair is usually just the start.
    I def have more women's shoes than men's. Ya never know what you'll need to match the outfit.
    women's feet are narrower than men's. You usually have to chose between the right length and the right width for the shoe. bigger shoes are a little wider.
    congrats on your purchasse

    congratulations on your purchase!!! I too just bought my first pair of heels...now i just have to learn how to walk in them. Unbelieveable how sexy a pair of heels can make a girl feel. When nobody's home my treadmill is finally going to see some use.

    When I was in college, I got approved for alot of credit cards. Some were store cards. Somehow I got I Lanebrynt card(to my late mother's delite). She would have me pickup many things for her all the time. The SAs got to know me on a first name bases. I wonder if mom knew what kind of seed she planted?
