OK .... bear with me ... I like to dress in character - just a nice, simple pagan girl who would never wear anything too outrageous (costume events notwithstanding  ) .... and I mostly wear flats in keeping with this. But I have a few dresses which really need dressing up with high heels ... just nice, simple, classic stilettoes. Well I'm in despair of ever finding such a thing. Can anyone suggest a seller who sells high heels that don't scream "F**K ME!!"?  Living in hope ...

ETD, Shiny Things, Maitreya, and Enkythings all have what you are looking for. Also 1-800-Betties, a retro shop, has a lovely set of mid heel court shoes.

From: Dawnee Swansong high heels that don't scream "F**K ME!!" Just occurred to me that might be the oxymoron of the day .... Thank you so much Brenda and Lindal - will go take a look at those.

And I can honestly say I never had a pair of high heels that said that. My boots though,they scream all kinds of obscenities.

tiny@boudoir makes Baroque-era court (and 'maid') shoes that can, in a pinch, work for medieval too. They make men's things too.
Medieval shoes are hard to find. I'll send some LMs to a few places next time I'm in.

check out HOC (house of curios) Lots of diff style shoes & sneakers..shes just launched her new thin heeled stiletto, 2 types one baked tecture block colours,, the newww one has animal prints and suedes (rather like her neo boot suedes)NOT expensive..between 40-50L with SO many options for colour etc..
Heels I always buy StilettoMoody...not a popular choice here...but its mine
N-Core also...a little f***-me but...very good.
For less classic...try DUH...nice range inexpensive..heels, clogs, sneakers & boots, average cost 20L
oh mustnt forget Sole sisters!! good for a cheap pair

Blaze has a fat pack of basic pumps, I think it has 41 pairs of every color you can imagine.

And now there's prim feet for humans too, can we get some traction behind adding separate "foot" and "shoe" attachment points?

Tesla has some nice shoes (also boots), and I think their Mary Jane black shoes are freebies. A lot of free hats upstairs, also, if you like hats.

From: 3Ring Binder i heard there is a shoe fair coming up, but i don't have any further information on that. Then pleez pleez pleez I hope someone publicises the need to attend it with an ultra low ARC. I hope someone gives out skins with hair painted on. I hope the shoe fair asks people to attend barefoot "so they can try on the shoes" and for low ARC. I am so tired of attending fashion fairs where I can't see a thing or move because of the lag beasts all around me.

From: 3Ring Binder i heard there is a shoe fair coming up, but i don't have any further information on that. Last year'shoe fair was the only fashion fair I've attended, and it was a disappointment. What few styles of interest I pretty much had enough of, most of the new stuff I wouldn't wear. Yesthe lag is awful too, especially on my machine. I don't want to be someone else's lag monster either. If I have to practically go someplace naked and blad in some shape other than the one I wear everyday, then it isn't worth going to anyway.

Can anyone suggest a seller who sells high heels that don't scream "F**K ME!!"? i just got my wife the new MIB stilettos from HOC... 50 L$ per set, and each set is texture change with 12 different textures. Can't really beat that.  and  for the product announcements. ...and if you don't like them, hey, 50L... in other shoe shops they won't even say "good morning" to you for that money.
