Yay for heels!! :)
I love all the ones you posted, especially the glamorous eccentric ones. So chic!
Ohhhhhh, those Miu Miu glittery beauties. So glam!
Mmmmm, nothing beats those YSL Tributes I reckon. Although I'm enamoured by them all. I've always had a fascination for all things platformed (not to mention it makes life easier for those of us who love heels).
Congrats to fashion cofectionary on her win too!
hope you're having a great week CC
oh I'm in love with the Cazabat printed suede ones! sigh...
WOW... some of those are WILD!!! I could use all that height though!
I love platforms! I wore some yesterday to a job interview!
Those are some really cool clothes. Love those shoes. Very awesome. Hope you're having a great day so far. Cheers!
Platform hotness! Love those ruffle-backs :)
Congrats to the winner - super jealous!!
Ruthie Davis, Marnie and Miu Miu keep my heart beating-love these!
platforms are great! heels make you feel sexy and glam!
Congratulations Libby (Fashion Confectionary)! :)
Ooh, that Peter Breese illustration is simply irresistible. And those Yves Saint Laurent Teal Tribtoo Pumps have left me speechless. Gorgeous post as always, darling! :)

Congrats to the winner.
Such a fun and gorgeous post, CC! I adore platforms, 24/7. If I could wear them in bed, I would. :) xxx
I can't stop staring at those green shoes! And that last pair - sigh...
Also the model in the denim shorts, her legs go on for miles!!!
Hope you're having a lovely week, CC! xx
Hello Carrie!

AT my height I could always use a good pair of platforms :)

I adore platforms. I do not own a pair of shes that does not involve platforms. I think they are the most fabuous creations ever and so happy they keep coming back season after season! Galliano platform blow my roof off! One day I will feel gutsy enough to wear them, I hope :-))))). Great post and fantastic pictures!

I love plataforms!! I'm sooo bad on heels that plataforms can be the only way I can use high heel shoes.
Watching your pics, I reminded a movie about plataform boots made by steel (It was "Kinky Boots") for transgender people, very interesting!
Espero que también tú estés bien!
Beso!

Love heels, although some of the editorial ones are a tad too out-there for me. But my favorites are definitely the Kirkwoods, followed by the Zanotti and Atwood ones! Gorgeous post as usual!

Congratulations to the winner!
Looovely shoes, CC!
These platform shoes look great but I am not sure how women actually walk in them. Sometimes you can't let function get in the way of good fashion!
haha we are definitely 'sole-sisters' because we rock the sky-high heels, despite already being twin towers!
enjoying all your posts, as usual, despite lack of commenting! have a fab day!
