Do you ever wear heels in the evening?

You go girl! Strut when you can, cause sooner than expected your stuff falls! I’m turning 79 next week, if I’d do it all over again (2 decades of cruising) I’d play the dress up game! But darn it, playing how little to pack, is where I’m at now. 

I hear you!  When we travel COO (carry on only) and a backpack, I wear my sneakers on the plane and pack a pair of flat sandals and a pair of metallic gold wedge heels that go with all my dressy outfits.  That's it!  We did 17 days in Italy (10 of those days on a cruise) and I wanted to have our luggage with us at all times, so COO made it happen.  Driving to a port I can have a bit more wiggle room in the wardrobe department😉

If I wore heels in the evening (or any other time), I'd probably be taking a trip to the emergency room and I'd be wearing a cast.

 

 

A couple of years ago I donated my last pair of 'high heels.' I still have a wonderful pair of tall boots with some heel. I can't even remember that last time I even open the box. I should make a commitment that if I don't wear them this winter, then they'll go away also.

For context I had bilateral bunion surgery, have had issues with Morton's Neuroma and Planter Fasciitis over the years so I do have some concept of pain and difficulties.

And wearing high heels! Not in fashion magazines but when you're walking around in your city, do you see many high heels. I don't. Flat have been 'in' for so long now I can hardly remember the olden days.

You enjoy your flats but you aren't necessarily the fashionista you purport to be. Yes some flats are in style but you will see many various styles on the runways this season. Slingbacks with kitten heels or cultural heels are very in. You and I must read different fashion magazines and I read all mine on line so can see a wide range.

 

Why not just let people have a different opinion rather than insulting them by telling them they are not up to date in fashion? In your opinion.

But I did ask if you see many people out on the streets in heels. To each their own.

My final comment. When we were in Paris last year and I was looking at shoes, most I tell ya had on sneakers 🙂 But I'm guessing they changed to flats at night 🙂

I don't read fashion magazines but I will say who cares who likes heels and who doesn't? If you enjoy wearing them, wear them😀and if you don't want to wear them....then don't.😀 Does it really matter?

Heels hurt my feet to I always wear dressy flats and sandals.

Color and patterns (and bows) to suit just about anybody.

Closest thing to "heels" are my Doc Maartens and my cowboy boots 😸  Never owned a pair of shoes with a heel higher than my cowboy boots (and I'm 70 in 5 days).  It all depends on where you live and your lifestyle.  I have zero need or desire for a pair of pumps, wedges, metallic sandals, etc.  My surgically enhanced left ankle prohibits me from even looking at them, anyway.  I'm perfectly happy with my quiver of about 10 different trail runners, hiking shoes & boots,and the aforementioned Docs & cowboy boots.
