To complete my badass look...

My new shoes came in! And my first reaction was UGLY UGLY UGLY UGLY UGLY. Why didn't I listen to my instincts and just say no? I just had to buy them because the 6 inch version looked so hot! But they didn't have my size in the 6 inch so I decided to get the chunky 7 inch hoping that it would be ok since I'm so short to begin with anyways.


As soon as I put them on I knew that I lost a chunk of cash. Well I took them off and decided to eat my boredom and sadness away. I've been letting my food cravings run wild the past two weeks and I need to chill because Vegas is right around the corner!


Since I haven't put my new pole up yet, I've been trying to practice just the sultry part of pole dancing. It's so much easier without shoes on, but then eventually I decided to try the moves with my new pair of shoes sitting outside the box. I was giving them a second chance to redeem themselves. And the second time around they didn't look so bad. I liked how they looked like so much I decided to put on an outfit that I would probably pair with the shoes...which ended up to be my pvc hot shorts, a studded belt and loose black tank top (which I love and hope lasts forever!).


I wear a lot of black. I can't help myself. I think that it just looks sexier and makes you look more dark and mysterious which I guess is the look that I'm trying to go for. After putting on the outfit, I decided that yes these shoes weren't a bad investment after all and that I could make it work as long as I wear tiny ass shorts to make my legs look longer.


On a side note I've been playing with my hair style lately. I've been trying to grow out my bangs to get the parted hair-do that you see in so many designer fashion shows that models wear. But I only get so far before I decide to chop my bangs and go back to my fringe...which I'm VERY close to doing again.


What's your opinion? I think they make me look a little different from the other girls and they cover my ugly forehead and emphasize my eyes. I guess I'll never find out what I look like without bangs.

What's Another Shoe?

I don't like buying black shoes any more. I have way too many of them. BUT I don't own a pair of black platform pole dancing shoes. I guess it's important to have a basic pair you can wear with everything...so I got a pair.

I ordered these Pleaser shoes from Snaz75 and the came within days. If I remember right the platform is 6.5 inches...maybe more. I don't have an issue with wearing chunky heels because I'm so tiny, so every half inch counts!

They don't look that high do they?

Sublime

I got home last night and a lovely surprise was waiting for me by the door. My new "lime green" glow-in-the-dark platforms! I didn't get to open the box until I got to the studio, and when I did I was shocked at how high the platform was and how more yellow it was than green.

I tried to convince myself that 7 inches isn't too high, but once I brought them out I got the same response from the dancers. But I put them on for class and I walked out with no broken ankle! For the size they are, I was surprised that they didn't feel like weights.

The only issue I have now is trying not to look like a hooker. Haha.

BTW, I do plan on getting a pair of these hot pink glow-in-the-dark 5 3/4 platform heels that everyone seems to have. They'll definitely be more tame.

My Hot Pink Obsession

I'm not usually a big fan of pink or hot pink, but in the last two months I've been wanting to wear all shades of pink. It started with bikinis I found on Malibu Strings, and now it's trickeled its way down to exotic footwear.


I realize that hot pink might not appeal to guys in general, but it makes me really happy.

I can only have one?

Every girl knows that it's not enough just to have one pair of heels for a certain occasion. Now that I'm taking pole classes on a regular basis, I can't use my pretty rhinestone heels so I need to buy a simple pair to practice in. I also want to be able to use these heels to go out in Vegas, so I've limited myself to only selecting a pair of black ones (even though I really am tempted to buy a pink pair...).

I've narrowed it down to these two...they're actually the same price and come in my size.


This one I can definitely double for Vegas and pole classes. I like how it covers most of my foot since I don't find it very attractive...


I like this shoe on the model, but I'm not sure if my veiny foot will look as good in it. Plus I'm worried putting all my weight in the shoes will force my toes out of the wide peep-toe. But I definitely like this design since it resembles bondage to me. I can see myself wearing this heel with a costume...

Foot Fetish

Besides Pleaser, Tony Shoes is one of the most recognized brand for your stripper heel needs. They offer 5-inch, 6-inch, 7-inch, light-up and wood/cork platform heels. If you're into boots, they have ankle, knee and thigh-high boots too. The pole dancing studio I used to take classes at, Sedusa Studios, carries these boots in their boutique in Campbell. The regular styles are reasonably priced and I hear they're really comfy. If you're looking to buy them online, they have a list of online retailers on their website you can select from. I'm actually coveting the ones below, but can't find them!
