High Heel Discount

I just shelled out half a paycheck on a fabulous pair of black suede pumps, and got caught in a downpour shortly thereafter. Of course, now they smell like a mixture of wet cow and feet. What is the best way to get odor out of high heels for good? I usually just throw sneakers in the washer machine but I’m not sure about these and I don’t want to ruin them. Febreze only works for so long – as soon as I get them on my feet again they start to smell. I’ve tried baking soda and various sprays, but they’re just a temporary fix. Any suggestions?
I’ll try that Penelope, and sadly there wasn’t a forecast. Mama Nature has been very hormonal lately and you’ll get a torrential downpour in the middle of a hot and sunny day. They last all of ten minutes but that’s enough time to ruin a pair of shoes.

Try this, until you can take them to a shoe repair shop fro proper cleaning:

GO to the grocery store and buy a pair of knee-high stockings (No Nonsense is an inexpensive brand) and a bag of kitty litter. OPEN the knee-highs and put a cup of kitty litter in the foot of two stockings. TIE a knot in each stocking to keep the kitty litter inside. PLACE one kitty litter-filled stocking into each shoe. ALLOW them to sit overnight, preferably for at least 24 hours.

Yes, I know it sounds weird…but give it a try.

(I gotta wonder why you wore suede pumps if you knew there was a forecast of rain.)

I need some brown suede boots for fall. No heels, I like them in a sand kind of color or dark brown. Buckles or no buckles doesn’t matter. Can’t go higher than my knee. And under $100.

This boots are not suede, but they are sand. they are similar colors and i think this boots are so cute:

Now i am extremely in love with christian louboutins big lip 120 suede heels! they are amazing!!! but i can barely walk in a mini heel.. i also LOVE they’re pretty bianca platforms! these are so awesome shoes and i need help learning to walk in them! so if you own a pair tell me your experience with your shoes and how you walk in them confidently without falling…. and if you don’t even know about christian louboutin himself… i recommend you check him out and his amazing talent!
thx so much!

I agree- Christian Louboutin is an abosolute GENIUS.
When your doing house work or whatever, wear those shoes. Wear them at like every opportunity you have – in your house. You will gradually get used to it. Also, go onto youtube and watch a few fashion shows or parades and copy what they do

I have suede high heel shoes and its more of a platform and designed more like an actual shoe but the top of the shoe has crosses leading down to the peep toe. just above the peep toe, the cross is quite tight so squashes my big toe. the shoes fit, but i dont want to make them really loose otherwise the shoe wont look right.. any suggestions?

Pick up a shoe stretcher – it’s probably the most secure way of stretching your shoes. You can do a little bit a day and see if it’s right for you because you can’t undo it! There are videos of people stretching their shoes with ice on youtube, but that doesn’t seem very reliable to me.

They are 3 1/2 in heels that are suede crimson t-straps. There are 4 roses that are on the strap on top of my foot, the roses are the same fabric and color. I just don’t know what to wear with them.

i would suggest a black dress with a red belt around the waist. my cousin tried it once, it looked great!!!
