My first new high heels!

[DriftingCrow]

It is now (after the first try-out) I am willing to really sacrifice comfortness for the mere sake of girly-girl feminine woman's beauty! 

I usually see this old lady, she looks around 80, walking in these 3-4 inch heels down the side walk, wearing a little skirt and carrying a pretty handag every morning. She has to walk really slow and bent over, but it's just like, high-five lady, dress how you want and feel pretty right to the end.

OK, I have finally got my first ones! And they are sitting and filling nice on my feet.
With them on, my figure is much like the one of the European model girl (which I like)! 
No doubt the dresses would look their best with these high heels.

To give you an idea how they look, I have found a similar shoe in the catalog. Though mine are a combination - the inner side made of black crocodile-looking leather, and the outer side is made of black suede.

I would love to wear heels like that! But I would be the height of a professional basketball player.

As I had said before Albina, you are the ultimate in girly-girl thought and fashion! 

Thank you, dear Shan - it means so much for me! 

..OK, guys, the story of my first high heels goes on. After a couple of days of trying them out at home, I had to conclude that they are not so comfortable to go for a long distance which I'd like to go.
So, today I went back to that store and asked to switch them for something more comfortable. They agreed - good folks!
And OMG!, what I saw on the shelf were my favorite lacquered high heels with an ankle strap! Most model girls on FTV are wearing them now. The heels are thick and steady, and a bit lower than the previous ones - 8 cm high. The color of the shoes is dark grey & black on the toes and heels. Overall, they look and feel great. So, here is the pic (unfortunately, the pic is not so good as they really are):

Those are really cute, they'll probably be much easier to walk in.

Another heel tip: always keep two small nude colored bandaids in your purse because sometimes the straps get a little twisted and dig into the ankle.

Very pretty Albina, and much more sensible for sure.

LearnedHand, so kind to provide such nice tips for the ladies which will no doubt be appreciated by many!

[Albina]

Thank you, guys!

[Shantel]

Such a nice lady for giving you her thoughtful and probably learned observations. She being cis and in the business she is in would be most qualified to say such a thing. I am pleased for you, it is a great personal victory for you Albina!

[Albina]

Without doubt it is. I am so happy!

Albina,
Yay, I'm so happy your appointment went well.  I LOVE heels too, although I don't wear them often as they're not very conducive to running after my son! Can't let him get away from me:)after LH gave such a helpful ti about the bandaids...I'll also tell you a tip that I have done SO many times.  If I'm going out to an event of course I want to wear the cute heeled shoes, even if they are painful! So I wear flip flops without any heels there, then when I'm just getting out of the car put the heels on, stuff the flats in my purse just in case I absolutely can't take the. Heels anymore at some point during the night.  I mean after an hour or two everyone will have already seen the heels and commented on how cute they are anyway, right! Oh, well, happy about your new heels....I'm sure you're totally rocking them.

[Albina]

Thank you, Spring!
Your experience with heels is good to know lol! 
Good to see you back here, btw.

I love heels too... I wear them quite a lot.

I love my high heel boots... Learning to walk in them was tricky, I found a video on-line when i was learning and i practiced the tips and now I walk quite easily in them.  I can last with the best of them in my heels.

My feet do get sore, The heels in my avatar can make my feet sore, but i was told by a girl.. beauty can be painful... be a girl and take it.

and congrats on your heels.

[Albina]

Thanks, Noleen!

Yours in your avatar do really look great! Though, I see they are not for me yet.
Would be nice to see your high heel boots too. Thanks!

Thanks Albina....we were vactioning at Disney so I had to devote my full attention oh and I'm changing my profile pic just so you can see these boots! The have like a 2.5 inch heel, but they are super comfortable and look great with jeans too.  I was with a friend to support a band....but these are the only stilletto heeled boots that I've worn that have actually been comfy. I got them at macy's they can still be found at macys.com if you're interested in this type of boot. They're leather and warm too.

[Albina]

Wow, what a nice picture! And the boots do really look great!
Thank you for sharing your pic - it is wonderful, though as you always are.

Congrats on the new heels I don't get to wear them often but on those rare occasions rock them out!

[Albina]

Thanks DirtyFox!
Can't wait for the warm season to start to go out in heels and dresses, and skirts!

[xhorrorglam]

I cannot wait to get a nice pair of heels. I want some jeffrey campbell spiked lolita's I think they are called.
Right now the only thing close to heels I have is knee high 4 inch platform boots. lol

Thank you for sharing your pic - it is wonderful, though as you always are. 

Thanks Albina, you are too sweet. I can't wait to see all the new spring lineup you're going to have, you're such a fashionista that you even inspire a jeans and tee shirt mom like me to want to go back to the skirts and heels!

[spring0721]

Oh my, I can't wait to see all of the european styles for spring/summer. Thanks for the heads up on the dates, I guess it will be something to look forward to to mid to late march then!

...OK, I should tell that the story of my first new high heels was not ended yet lol!
After a while, I had to admit that my previous ones (on p. 3 here) don't go perfectly well with some of my dresses. I was thinking I had better chosen more classic looking ones. ...So, I made a trip back to that store today. The sales girls are awesome  - they switched them for me again! To compensate for 2 returns commotion, I bought a nice narrow black leather belt (for some of my dresses).
...So, I finally bought the black leather high heels (4 inches), which fit my legs even better. This is final, I love them!
Here they are:
