How old were you when you started to wear high heels?

[brimfull]

Having discussion with nearly 16yr old dd.
I can't remember.

I have never worn them 30 this year

16

not allowed before 16

not worn till abotu, ooh, 25?

luckily they aren't really that fashionable for teens at the moment

22

i was stupidly young, i must have looked like an idiot

i rarely wear them now, i live in flip flops and tennis shoes

At Uni
Sixth form was biker boots and trainers

at age of 44, still waiting for my girlie gene to kick in and start wearing high heels

have started looking at handbags longingly though...

I was in ballet. Pointe shoes from about 13-14, so high heels were a doodle - in those by 15 definitely.

16 or 17.
(although had a rather fetching pair of bright red shoes, that I used to hide in my school bag and swap with my Startrites at the bus stop - when I was 13 or so)

i can certainly wear high heels, walking in them is another story.

I'm 35, I still don't.

15 ish
I'm going to let mine wear them whenever she wants, they are s uncomfortable i imagine the novelty will waer off quickly

kitten heels were teh thing to have when I was in my teens, had them by 15. My mum never banned them from what I remember but then she never banned anything.

(dd1's class put on a fashion show in teh spring and the two most popular girls both had almost stilettos on, aged 10. Looked obscene)

my mum still looks askance at them

watching posh spice on tv last night,she looks like a child trying to walk in their mum's heels.

prob about 15 for nights out. Went through a phas of wearing them to work in my late teens. Now I only wear them if I'm out on the town

Probably not until 6th form! Didn't really go out at night much before that. Actually maybe had some small heels at about 15 for going out for6= best with family.

Saw a child of about 4 at Gulliver's Kingdom today in white sandals with heel - and not a tiny one either. Was ridiculous. Child couldn't walk in them properly and had to be helped in and out of every ride because of them

Never been one for stilletoes, but I had my first pair of boots with a heel when I was 15 or 16, essentially when I started buying my own clothes with my own money (ditto mini skirts, make up etc)

14

Was a bit of a Doctor Marten's-type late-80s teenager, so probably not till I was in my early twenties. Then I stopped when I was 25 after a horrific ankle-snapping incident while a bit pissed in ridiculous Spice Girl-type wedges. Haven't really bothered since apart from at weddings and posh dos, and still have a metal plate halfway up my leg!

15 ish but they were chunky ones , just bought my first pair of pointy heels (not quite stilettos) at 28

what, high ones sweetie?
