I'm sorry if there's some of you in here who think I'm judging her specifically because she's wearing heels. I'm not. Like I said, I own a couple of pairs myself, and I like them. I think they're sexy, and they're fun to wear. It just bothers me when people wear shoes like that when there's tons of ice and snow on the ground, because there's a greater chance of them slipping and hurting themselves.

She wasn't dressed to go anywhere fancy, nor was she wearing a costume. She just had these leapord print heels on, with gray socks or what have you, with a pair of jeans and a shirt.

What worried me is that there was a bunch of ice and snow everywhere, and with shoes like that, it's pretty easy to lose your footing, and slip and fall - especially when there's tons of ice and snow around in which to slip.

LOL, I have to agree that the gray socks were quite off putting.

 
ok i was like whatever...you know? but then you killed me with the grey socks!!!! LOL!!!!:add_wegbrech: :add_wegbrech:

 
She looked really good though, I will say that. She had a really cute red shirt on though, I liked it.

 
definitely! some people, i wonder why they wear the "wrong" things during the wrong seasons.

 
I think she can wear what she want but she better be prepared for the embarrassment if she slips on the ice and cracks her head on the sidewalk or something. Personally it is not a risk I would take.

 
i agree that she is crazy for wearing heals int eh winter on ice, but is she can do it all the more power to her.

i would also like to remind everyone there was a time when it was fashionable to wear socks with stilletos. though it may have been short lived and not really have caught on the designers did do it for a bit of time

 
i think its ok. here in iceland almost everyone does it so its normal to me. im not that much into heels though. but i always have to laugh when those ladies do a goofie dance trying not to fall on their butt when they actually start sliding over the ice.

 
I'm w/ you MonnieJ. If she likes it I love it. Maybe you just saw part of the picture and she was going from pt. A to pt. B, a short trip, socks for warmth, kept shoes on cause didn't have a change handy.

 
Sorry to change the subject BUT I really miss eating at Panera Bread... BTW I work at a casino and I see strange stuff all the time...

 
I love Panera, they have excellent food! When I go I always have to have their veggie sandwich.

My father used to work at a casino as a security guard, and he would come home with the WILDEST stories, lolol!

As atonement to the fashion gods, I shall post a pic of my stilettos sometime in the near future, hehe!

 
*raises hand

I wore slingback pumps with no socks in the heavy rain

Maind you they were ivory,,,,but it coordinated so well with my outfit and I looked really good at work. I got sick of it and ended up buying trouser socks...which worked even better since my pants covered the slingback and the socks blended in perfectly with the pants.

Point is: When you have a nice outfit on and you need something to coordinate with it...you may go to new lows or high heels to make it happen. Boy did I take the rain like a trouper...I got rained on that day! (at least until I bought an umbrella too.)

 
Well I have to say that even in the winter I wear crazy high heels. I find it keeps you alert when walking on ice.

 
Well I never wear heels, ever, except for weddings and job interviews. I used to live near this lady who, every day after work, walked her dog through the neighborhood in high heels. Every day. Why didnt she put on different shoes when she got home from work? I always wanted to ask, lol.

 
Well, I also personally think that stiletto heels are not safety to walk on ice/snow. I'd thought the same thing tho.

The socks thing is fine for me because Stilettos + socks are trend here in Japan, specially for winter season.
