You must be comfortable with whatever colour or style you choose and that's not only feeling right inside (as in do you think that women who are six feet tall should never where really high heels?) but also something that you can walk around in for at least an hour at home and still feel that you want to walk some more before you take them off. Economics may, of course, dictate that you need to buy something that you wear again, the glamour of the occasion may say "to hell with the expense"!Hazelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02190033400781979299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-28575621630996586422008-09-30T21:27:00.000-08:002008-09-30T21:27:00.000-08:00I know that you're tall; but I say, "Work it, girl...I know that you're tall; but I say, "Work it, girl!" I vote for very high heels; pointy-toed, suede, bing-cherry hued, va-va-voom, classic 1940's glamorous styled pumps; with just the slightest bit of toe-cleavage revealed for a touch of the provocative.

I think the red and burgundy both look good (though I voted for red). Red is more appealing to me, but the burgundy will look good too. I would not go for the leopard spotted. As for height, don't worry about whatever size heel you have. Anything you can do to stand out, do it. You're going to be surrounded by movie stars. You'll need all the height you can to be noticed, don't you think? Unless you don't want to be noticed? Oh, and as for the price factor, I say you can never spend too much on shoes. As long as you have the cash, go for it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-71422770008281627052008-09-29T23:02:00.000-08:002008-09-29T23:02:00.000-08:00How exciting!

I remember in university going to one of the dances and a young lady walked by who must have been minimum 6 inches taller than me (and I'm 5'10"), everyone, and I mean everyone watched her saunter across the room, she was magnificient. <BR/><BR/>I really think you could pull that off and be that fabulous "I want to aspire to have that one day" women in other's memories. You need the confidence to wear it too, it's been 15 years but I remember it like yesterday and I still admire her.<BR/><BR/>One more tip, if you go with contrasting shoes you must must must have 2 other items of accessories that match the shoes to pull the outfit together (it's the 3 matching items rule). <BR/>Kimodat_kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03894570662861067362noreply@blogger.com
