How often do you wear heels?
I love high heels. Now that I work in a lab every day, I can't wear them anymore. Hubby and I rarely leave the house on the weekends now, either, and when I do... I'm going to the lab again! I used to wear heels at least four times a week. I miss them terribly, and can't wait until I can wear them all again.
How about you?

Re: How often do you wear heels?
For me its usually just on special occasions. Although I didn't wear them for the wedding either.
I spend most of my day chasing around a 1 year old so I usually wear sneakers or flip flops.

I love heels! But my feet are whiney and usully start to hurt shortly after leaving the house so a spare set of flip flops are always a must.
I usually wear heels once a week when Lance and go to dinner or out with friends.
Monday thru Friday, occasionally Saturday nights and on the absolutely very rare occassion I may wear em on a Sunday.
I love heels!

TTC Since January 2011 - We have bad spermThis for me.
Though maybe 1 day a week flats. Just depends on the few outfits I have for flats. Most of my pants are too long.
When I do wear heals, it's on a VERY special occasion. I would say maybe 3 times a year.
Not a fan of heals :-/
I used to wear heels mostly when my pants were too long to wear flats, but I started having ankle issues that I went to get checked out and was told they were a result of wearing heels too much. So now, I have 1 black pair in my closet and that's it. I haven't worn them much lately but I have them "just in case". I wear flats all the time now.
I also wore basically flat shoes for the wedding, and changed into flip flops for the reception. I was SO glad I didn't opt for heels for the wedding.

Like Becca, I wear them usually 4 out of 5 days a week for work because that way I don't have to get my pants hemmed.
Although I wear them more at work in winter. In summer I bust out my cute, work-appropriate sandals. I rarely wear them on weekends though. Usually it'd boots in the winter and sandals/wedges in the summer if/when we go out.
Allie- When I first moved to Chicago I was determined to by all cutesy by wearing my heels on my commute to work (I walk to train, take train, and walk a few blocks to work). It lasted all of about 3 days until I realized what a slow walker I was in heels and how silly I must of locked. Now I laugh (in my head) when I see girls struggling in heels while walking to work.

I used to be in new home sales, and I wore TALL heels all day, every day. They never bothered my feet at all.
Then I got a desk job where I wear jeans or much more comfortable clothing than I did at my last job, and heels absolutely kill my feet now. It kind of makes me sad. The walk from my parking garage to my cube is so long that even the days that I do wear heels (which is rare), I have to bring flip flops for that part of the walk...then I'm walking all over my slacks.

Me too. I started commuting a few years ago, and I think my "regular" shoes lasted three days. My work area is full of cobblestone streets, which are not so conducive to heels. Now I have a tub of shoes under my desk, so I wear sneakers/flip flops, and I keep all of my work shoes here.
Haha, ditto! Only it's annoying if I actually want to wear heels on the weekend and they're at the office. That happened the night that DH proposed and we went out for a great meal. :O(

this dilemma can only be solved by purchasing more shoes. :P
I have whiney wide feet and bad ankles, so I WISH I could wear them 4 times per week, but I only wear them on VERY special occassions. I wore these today:

And the last time I wore heels was at the wedding. lmao
Missing our little turkey.

I'm always the special snowflake.
I used to almost never wear anything without at least a 3 inch heel, but last year, I fell down a hill and broke my ankle right above the part where it meets your foot, and heels were off-limits per doctor's orders for a whole year! I only recently came off "probation", so I've been having to retrain my feet to adapt to heels again. I wear them 2-3 times a week now, and I can't yet wear them for a whole day. I'm up to about 4 hours at a stretch, though.
Later, when photobucket stops acting up, I'll include a picture of my first pair of post-healing heels.
