How? Just How?

It's a tiny strap that rests below her bunion/big toe joint and you'd think the shoe would just fall off as she walked....

Someone explain it to me please!

I have a similar pair and the heel strap is very small, so from certain angles, it doesn't look like there is one. They are really comfortable and stay on a treat, no tape, araldite or superglue required. Smile

Oh my shitting days!

I've just googled her age and she's 48! Shock

I'll be 48 in two months time. I wonder if there's still time for me to look as good as her Grin

Actually she can fuck right off now. That's given me the right hump...

Oh I don't know, Navy. I can think of plenty who don't Grin

DevelopingDetritus · 27/02/2017 12:54

I don't know but I'm jealous of her non bunion.

Anyone seen Jen An in the movie "Cake" ?

CrazyCavalierLady · 27/02/2017 13:08

Please remember she's a rich woman who's had no children. Of course she looks good. She hasn't endured pregnancy (which ages a woman's body) nor raised children (which ages you mind, body and soul lol). Plus she has the time and money for beauty treatments. We'd all look that good if we'd lived her life

HelenaGWells · 27/02/2017 13:09

if you look at the photo TOLBIC posted you can see that they have a slight back to them, basically like the pic somanyshoes posted but it is solid rather than a strap.

It's still magic though, I'd be on my arse in about 10 seconds.

Giddyaunt18 · 27/02/2017 13:09

Strap round back of heel. I had a pair of similar shoes years ago. They were soon flattering for the not so long leg but were surprisingly easy to wear.

Giddyaunt18 · 27/02/2017 13:10

soon not soon!

I saw her last night in Life of Crime, and I enjoyed it. She was by far the best actor. Didn't recognise Tim Robbins.

DevelopingDetritus · 27/02/2017 13:12

I've not seen Cake, just watched the trailer, looks good.

Maudlinmaud · 27/02/2017 13:13

It's on my to watch list AF. Some of her roles surprise me, Derailed was very hard to watch but she gave a great performance as far from her usual rom coms as you could get.

DevelopingDetritus · 27/02/2017 13:15

I've just ordered Cake from Amazon 97p plus £1.26 P&P. Nice one.

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 27/02/2017 13:16

You can see she using her feet muscles and her toes to keep them on.
She must have some tape too.

It's a skill, wearing shoes like this.

WhiskeySourpuss · 27/02/2017 13:16

There's no magic involved... It's a heel strap

DevelopingDetritus · 27/02/2017 13:17

I saw her in The Good Girl, I liked that.

AnyFucker · 27/02/2017 13:17

I thought so, Navy. Certainly somewhat of a departure for her. She plays a woman suffering from chronic pain who gets obsessed with suicide. The acting is exemplary.

DH hated it but he likes neat, happy endings Smile

AnyFucker · 27/02/2017 13:18

She was great in The Good Girl too

AnyFucker · 27/02/2017 13:20

On a bit of a tangent another good, slightly offbeat, film I saw recently was "Demolition" with Jake Gyllenhall and Naomi Watts.

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 27/02/2017 13:21

Sorry Whiskey, can't see a thing in that photo except for the big green arrow.

cathyandclare · 27/02/2017 13:22

Leg lengthening and comfortable you say? They may be the holy grail of shoes for me.

Can anyone find me a nudish pair?

If Jen's feet are hideous, I fear for my trotters.

A1Sharon · 27/02/2017 13:26

In the first photo the OP posted I can see a clear 'L' shaped strap going across her foot and from her ankle to the front strap.
I have eyes like a bat.
