Assuming you don't shy away from them, what's the tallest pair you own? Mine are 8 inch, putting me at 6'6 :) It freaks people out when I walk into a room, especially men. Are they afraid I am about to invade a small village?

    Mine are only 4" or 5" which will put me just over 6' but most of my friends are shorter than me so I always tower above lol
  • At work, so I can't measure my tallest heels, but I love them! It's nice to hear I'm not the only one that towers over her friends. Can definitely be awkward at times, but they're so lovely, I can never give them up. (I'm about 6')

    Oh my gosh, what do 8 inches even look like? I have a glittery awesome pair that are 4 inches... unfortunatly they are about a size too small so I can't actually wear them, they were just so cool I had to own them!

    Me too! I love the look of a great healed boot but I get that same towering feeling. I admire the women who can. My small 2" heels make me 6'2" and I then have look down at my husband.

    Mine are only 3" but I absolutely LOVE wearing them! There is nothing that makes me feel hotter than strutting my stuff into a room full of teeny tiny women and "normal" height men. Feeling like Sheeba-Queen of the Jungle People! It's amazing! And being 5'8 &1/2" the heels put me at just under 6'.

    I am 6'1" and wear 4" heels. I figure what's another inch or two on a mile, right? Besides, everyone will look at me and go "holy crap you're tall" -- might as well make it worth the conversation!

    Stand tall ladies! It's all good!

    PS - never dated a man over 6'1" - they get used to it :)

    Mine are about 6" and honestly I hate the whole platform trend because I don't like being that freaking tall but most non-platform shoes are grannyish.

    My heels, most of which are 5-6 inches, put me at 6'3".

    Being clumsy, I can only survive in a chunky heel or a wedge, and my tallest is probably only about 4 inches
  • 5 inches, which puts me at about 6'4". I love wearing heels! They make me feel so confident.

    5" so they put me at 6'5". It totally freaks people out in bars and stuff and my partner (who is 6'2") usually stands on the couch to kiss me when I wear them so he doesn't feel short.

    4" putting me at 6'4. I don't wear them that often, because, quite honestly I have no real skill for walking in heels LOL

    :blushing:
  • My tallest ones I wear regularly are about 4", making me 6'5".

    They make 8-inch heels?? Wow.

    There is nothing I hate more than when people say, " you're already so tall, why would you wear heels?"

    Just because we are tall doesn't mean our selection of clothing and shoes should be limited! I wear heels because I WANT to and I LIKE them! So get over it, Shortys!

    I don't wear heels a lot, but I wear them for my sorority, so my favorite pair of heels are 5 inches which puts me at 6'3 :)

    I love this thread, it is great to see so many tall women confidently wearing heels! I don't wear heels very often 'cause I tower over everyone when I do and I feel awkward, but my husband, who is only 5'10" (I'm 6' without shoes) loves it when I wear them! My tallest pair are probably 4-5", but ones I wear out the most are 3". I can't even imagine trying to wear 8" heels! I would surely fall and break my neck lol.

    The only time I don't wear heels is when I'm cycling, I lie, I've worn heeled boots on my bike twice.
    My tallest heels are 5" putting me at 6' 5".
    My hubby is 5' 7" and loves the tall girl look.
    When out together we get many double takes!
