Candi's High Heels

CandiCaine;

Thank you for posting such fantastic pictures. The style of shoes depicted in your photos are my favorite.

I am very particular when it comes to the construction and appearance of the arch and the spike heel (perpendicular to the ground). All the your heels seem to be of such high quality that I don't see these flaws.

You're welcome PJ, and thank you for the kind words. I will gladly post more pics of my extensive high heel collection if anyone is interested.

Yes please! The shoes are a knockout.

The only thing is, some of the pairs appear to be several sizes to big, as if you've borrowed them from someone's stock of shoes just for the photoshoot and are about to take them back again. On these sorts of sessions, as Xaphod says, whenever the underside of the sole is glimpsed, it invariably betrays an unworn shoe!

It would be more exciting for many of us guys if we could be convinced that the shoes REALLY belong to the wearer and are REALLY worn on a regular basis. That is why the British "Street Heels" site has been so phenominally successful and highly acclaimed, because all of the shots are of real girls in their real high heels going about in real everyday life. The only trouble is, they are lower (and often thicker) heels and not as stunning.

As I say, the shoes in your shots are GREAT. They are FANTASTIC! I just wish that on such shootings, attention could be paid to seeing that each pair of shoes is a convincing fit, and maybe a few signs of natural wear (especially on the soles whenever shown) so that at least we stand some chance of being deluded into believing that you do actually own them and wear them in real life from time to time.

For me, unless this conviction is present, it shatters the whole bubble of imagining the wearer living in the high heels. It's all in the attention to detail!

Constructively and Cheerfully yours, Heelfan

In response to your comments heelfan; first of all thank you for the compliment, I really do appreciate it.
Second, several sizes to big is a bit of a stretch I think. You make it sound as if I'm putting a size 7 foot into a size 12 shoe, which is far from the case. The only pair of heels pictured that run a tad big on me are the 7" black leather pumps with the red heel. They are a size larger than I normally wear but I got a great deal on them and in my opinion, (and several others I might add), they still look good on me.
Finally, you won't see any "wear" on the 7" & 9" heels because I don't go out in these and I dare say there are probably only a handful of women in this world who would. The 6" heels however, (the black patent & the white patent), are a different story. I have had these for some time and enjoy going out to "strut my stuff" whenever the urge arises. Beleive me, there is plenty of wear on those beauties!! I will certainly keep you in mind the next time I post any new images and make sure that I show some "sole".

Sincerely, Candi
