Nicks - My Boots Are Killing Me! - Page 3

I wish she could compromise a bit.

Not as great as the boots, but not as bad as the sneakers, what about some clogs? At least it's 70's style, sorta... They have black suede, even burgundy to match her new dress...even a crushed velvet look...and they are very comfortable.

(new at trying to insert a pic...hope this works...)

And then there are some that remind me of some of the shoes she wore in the 70's when not on stage...(pic #2 below)

I have never worn the high heeled ones here, but Dansko is suppose to be a very comfy brand...

the ones in the last set of pics are acceptable but the others are dreadful. I think I'd rather have the reeboks.

Stevie should take the boots off if this is how they are making her feel. Gorgeous as they are, her comfort and the resulting performances are what matters. I mean, one does not wear the 'Boks as a fashion statement, so it was always obvious she was wearing them out of neccesity, and then brought the boots back just for us. You don't switch to the 'Boks, age another ten years, and then suddenly find the boots wearable again. I'm sure her boots are custom made, so they are probably already as comfy as 6" platforms can possibly be. I think the 'Boks look perfectly fine with leg warmers or pants. But some hip wedges could be a great middle ground. I'm only 30, and I'm a fan of the wedge!

But that's the thing, she will be on stage. Most of those in the picture don't look like they would hold your foot very securely during kicks and twirls. They may be comfortable, but I think they would be a little dangeous. If you don't break a neck, you might certainly twist an ankle.

stevie could still do the boots with wedge or flat and still be looking good...

there are some at zappos for goodness sake! http://www.zappos.com/n/es/d/722000921/page/1.html

From that page I like chinese laundry http://zapp.me/z7446048, fitzwell http://zapp.me/z7348622 , me too http://zapp.me/z7440710 and nine west http://zapp.me/z7491551

I don't know about you guys and dolls, but when a pair of anything are killing my feet and I take them off to only put them on an hour or so later...I'm dying. Bad move.

When you do that, your foot often swells in between wearings. Michele

and, according to the interview, that is what Stevie is doing...ugh. You know, she could stick with the shorter heel on the ankle booties, and put her platforms in glass case next to the tour paraphernalia for all to gawk!

lol! But, I love my black clogs!

I suppose, to each their own. I'd rather see regular sneakers than platform ones though. But whatever she feels comfy in.

What about if she switched to pants for live shows, would everyone miss the dresses? Her leather pants and her "Janis" pants? Then other shoes and sneakers would fit in better, rather than trying to pair a chiffon dress with sneakers. She could save her beautiful stuff for photo shoots and videos.

I figure as long as she's still singing and performing (and making new cd's and dvd's), I could settle for her wearing a Lane Bryant moo-moo and still be happy hearing her sing. Where as some fans would probably rather go blind.

But seriously, I wouldn't mind seeing her in casual clothes on stage. Some of the candid photos we see every now and then, she looks great. And the stuff she wears when like visiting the soldiers in the hospitals, and things she wears to radio interviews and such.

And give her a stool to sit on during the slow songs. Lindsey and John too. Nothing wrong with that, and it'd give them a little break during the show. I'm like half their age, and my feet are killing me some times after a long day (when not in my clogs, lol). She shouldn't have to "suffer for the love."

They could slip in a little acoustic part of the concert, like she did during Enchanted, and they could sit and chill out for a bit. We got one more great show from her in her boots on dvd right now. And some great fan photos of her from this current tour in her boots. I can understand if they go. Just as long as she doesn't go.

I wouldn't care if Stevie didn't wear the boots anymore...I want to see her like this again:

Hawkeye · #40 04-06-2009, 03:36 PM

Yeah, I've never cared if she wore her boots. It never bothered me one bit when she was wearing the boks. I did like on the CV tour when she wore her orange boots on Rhiannon, Dreams and Sorcerer, but its not a big deal. I don't know why it matters so much to so many of you.

DestinyRules · #41 04-18-2009, 10:50 PM

My preference is for practicality rather than aesthetic.

When Stevie's worn the Reeboks, she's more comfortable. It's been OBVIOUS when I've seen her on stage wearing the Reeboks compared to her wearing the boots.

I'd rather she wear the Reeboks if it means she'll be able to move around better and not worry about her feet hurting than have her wearing the boots if it means she'll be stiff and painful.

You know what I realized by watching this??? I don't think Stevie did the Stand Back twirls in Columbus!!
