Pointy shoes make you look like Christmas elves. That is all.

<--- Does not like pointy shoes.
The black ones are the worst, this gal I was dating a couple of years back had these pointy black Prada shoes and I found them to be "witchy" looking.

Well if you wear them correctly, with a slim fitting pant (not like the one you've shown) it can look quite nice.
But I don't wear heels, so what do I know.

I think the pointiest shoes I've ever owned, that I actually wore, were some 'Rude Boy' Creepers.
I hate pointy shoes!

Lately I've seen some really atrocious footwear and pointy feet are the absolute worst. It seems like every month they just get longer and longer. Sometimes they're like small flippers.
Another annoyance: the 1 inch heel. It looks like you're walking on a Lego and defeats the purpose of high heels. Don't do it.

If you wear pointy shoes your feet will deform!!!!  I have seen a ton (if pixels actually have a weight) of poorly done shoes in SL that leave you looking like you have barbie feet.... Might as well just chop off your feet and run around on pegs for as much support feet like these will give.... Or on the other end of the spectrum...

Theres nothing wrong with them pointy shoes. I think its just the wrong colour on the fabric/leather plus its worn with some ugly clothing.
Whats making it worse is, it looks like a man wearing them.

I despise pointy shoes... My feet are not pointy - why do shoe designers make shoes that look like that??? Ah well, beats the hell out of Cruel Shoes

Ah well, beats the hell out of Cruel Shoes If you notice, women's shoes are seldom about practicality. Its all about being pretty. High heels make you look taller and also tighten your leg and buttock muscles so they look shapelier. Can't imagine any other reason for wearing tiny stilts on feet and maneuvering pass floor grates. There are always sneakers and flip flops. |

Which is why there's nothing wrong with high heels. Which is why this thread is about pointy shoes. Which can look like witch shoes.

Nice try, Mr. Kringle. The workers have united in solidarity to see through your attempt to keep them down by making footwear they can trip over.

well i like women in high heels and I even like the pointy ones as well as the sandals. I know women suffer for fashion, but hey I am appreciative. I also figure if woemn are going to wear high hells to look sexy for me, then I might as well be a master of the art of a foot massage.

In SL, I LOVE high heels! Pointy Platform Stilletto Fetish funky heeled whatever! If I could find more 7' heels, I'd wear those too! (and I have no support problems at all!) IRL, it's a whole different story..... ~Jenni~ |
