Okay. We'll agree to disagree on this one.

I am 5'9 and I love to rock heels......if I am in the mood. I have so many shoes, but heels are my fav. When Im on a date, in the club, out with the girls, etc, etc. Being tall, in 3 or 4 inch heels does something to your confidence .

But for the women who cant do it, DON'T. Heels are not cute if you cant walk in them

I guess it depends on your definition of platforms. I saw a whole line of them in JC Penny last week and they were adorable - I think they might be part of Fergie's line.

Post a pic of what you call a platform so I can see what you're talking about.

You might be thinking of 70s-type platforms and not wedges and espadrilles.

They make a woman more visually appealing (legs seem longer and leaner), but like fake boobs, they can be counterproductive.

Ladies, ladies, if you want to go ahead and wear your high platforms, that's fine... There is nothing wrong with that.

Trendy and acceptable. Anything higher then that is a bust.
By the way, platforms never ever really left the stores.
