How you say....bored?

Upon inspection last night it saddened me to find that my platform shit-kickers have just about bit the biscuit as far as wearability is concerned. I miss 'House of Ill Repute' for the fact that A) they carried shoe sizes that people over 5'8 could wear (unlike another Queen St. Gawth store...*coughs*) B) their prices were decent and C) not ( Read more... )

one way to save nylons is to spray them a little with some hairspray, at a distance of course, and not too much! maybe it only works for me, or i've purchased amazing nylons and tights...i don't know! i shop mostly online for my shoes...but look for a place like dynamic shoes in kitchener in town...they carry larger sizes and can tend toward the goth/club feel.

Will give both a shot...I don't recall 'dynamic' and I grew up in Cambridge/Kitchener...hmm...new store? Is it on King?

Re: katgrrl January 30 2004, 07:32:24 UTC

it's been there for ages, it's beside where the king centre 'used' to be. looks divey, but there's sometimes good shoes. and the owner is super nice. it doesn't matter if i haven't been in for a year, she always remembers me. there are shoe stores like it everywhere, the owners are usually asian or east indian. i believe that there was one similar on yonge across from the eaton centre, though i can't recall the name of it now! give it a try though, sometimes from the outside they appear to be nothing interesting, but there are usually really good finds to be had within.

Oh okay maybe I do remember it then..sort of across from City Hall...we used to hit the King Centre in our dirt mall days. Will check it out next time I'm down.

thnx:)

it's going out for business sign finaly became a going out of business. The younge place closed down a couple of years ago. Though there's an Aldo outlet there.

Aldo sux as far as sizes are concerned, they usually only carry up to a size 10, and unfortunately being a woman with some height I wear an 11..
