I have never wore them, and I definitely don't need the extra height. Besides, I don't think they come in my size either.

In the footwear department, I'll side with Edge tyvm.

This is so funny I was just complimenting a co-worker today on her new shoes, a pair of wedges that she got a Nordstrom Seattle downtown. They are SUPER comfy, and they look really cute/sexy! The brand name is EARTHIES and the foot bed is structured to give you more support but it doesn't look like it at all. It's the Founder's Day sale she said and her mom in law got them for her. THey are so cute! I found this link. Some of their sandals are too "earthy" looking for me but these are very cute but pricey for me.

To keep on topic, I wonder if Ali is starting her own shoe line too?

I like the idea of the support, but I'm really funny about open-toed shoes. (I kind of hate my toenails.

)

Oh these are cute! I'd definitely wear these! Love the zipper up the back. Though I don't think I could justify $100 on a pair of summer sandals.

Dangit.

Ya, Nordies is expensive even when they have sales

My rule is this: Only tolerate uncomfortable shoes if you have somebody to give you a foot rub. And it's for a limited appearance. Like a seduction or something. I want to be able to run from danger if I need to.

Rachel D. · 05-27-2012, 01:40 PM

I don't wear uncomfortable shoes, period. I'm not going to be miserable just to impress someone else (which would be the only reason). Bad shoes are meant to make women look a certain way and be unable to run or walk properly, like footbinding in China. (Well, that might be a little extreme, but that's what comes to mind.)

corianderstem · 05-27-2012, 02:16 PM

I like to have a beautiful pair of "sittin' shoes." But when I have a need to wear some "sittin' shoes," I have a spare so I can walk to and from the event.

Case in point, the shoes I wore to my NYE party. Bringing a cute pair of flats as back-up and to wear to and from the hotel was one the smartest things I've ever done.

I agree wholeheartedly! There is something to the idea that stupid shoes hobble a woman.

I don't have the impression that those who can walk in high heels feel it that way.
I have a friend who has walked in high heels since she was little and for her flats are uncomfortable. She says that flats make her twist her ankles and make her feel like she falling backwards.

I do like heels, they're elegant, give a great posture and height. Unfortunately living in North-Norway isn't the best place for heels, I can only wear them in the summer. I have a pair of winter shoes with high heels but they don't go well with icy hills.

Dear Bono, Edge, Adam, and Larry....please go out in public so we have something else to talk about.

I need him sooooooooooooo much!!!!!

Rachel D. · 05-28-2012, 11:30 PM

Do we still only have one pic of Larry so far for 2012? I hope that if they make an appearance at the Aung San Suu Kyi thing in Dublin that the whole band is there.

Also, I saw this video interview with Danger Mouse from May 24 where he confirms that he's been working with U2, but he can't talk about it.

Why not?!

It sounds like they messed up her feet/ankles!

Is she stuck standing on her toes?

hcbiggs2002 · 05-29-2012, 04:04 AM

Hmmm interesting not that I have any idea who this Danger Mouse is?!

And oh I have the same problem with flat shoes, I can't wear them, especially if the shoe is totally flat and has absolutely no support for the high arch of my feet. I had to give up my job as a gardener coz for the job I had to wear either sneakers or wellie boots all day and I even developed a painful foot condition called Plantar fasciitis because of it and one of the best treatments, for me anyway, is to wear high heels or wedges!! No more pain!!

Hey Rachel_D

i posted this link on Moobday i believe it belongs here too with a new pic i guess of Larry for 2012 since it was posted on fb on May 18th https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=3&theater

I actually can't recollect seing her without shoes, I only got aware of her high heels and asked her why she never wore flats.
She lived in North-Norway for many years so she must have been forced to use heel-less winter shoes sometimes. I do prefer to wear very thick sole (like Bono's Elevation shoes) in the winter-time.

It a bit strange that high heels is considered as something that force women to lose ability to move freely around, because high heels have been used by men too. The same with make-up, ruffles,lace etc.

He is a music producer that has worked with Black Keys, Beck and Cee Lo to name a few. He's been working with U2 as well.

Yep, he's been linked to them since the whole "tree albums" thing.

His real name is Brian Burton by the way, but he's most famous as Danger Mouse. He also collaborated with the Gorillaz, and he's half of Gnarls Barkley.
