Your Questions About Stilettos

Donna asks…

Can I use the Sirius Stiletto on an airplane/subway and recieve a decent signal?

I like talk radio more than listening to music so the Sirius Stiletto is appealing more so than an iPod. I am always on the go, be it car, airplane or subway and was wondering if I would have any trouble receiving a signal in an airplane, car or subway. Thanks for any help in advance. Ryan

Linda asks…

What is the difference between a stiletto shoe and a pump?

I was on a website shopping for shoes, and almost all of the shoes were called 'pumps'. What is the difference between a stiletto and a pump? Is a stiletto higher? Skinnier? Pointier? What strippers wear? I have no idea. Please tell me! :D

Our pick of the answers:

Stiletto means "little stilt" in Latin/Italian, so it refers to a very high (usually 4" and up) heel that is extremely thin. Pump is a widely-accepted generic word for any high-heeled shoe. I work in the fashion industry, and I must say that nobody here in NYC really uses the term "pumps" unless they are moms/waitresses/elderly/professional dancers/etc. Everyone says "heels" as the standard generic term, and "stiletto" ALWAYS refers to extremely high and skinny heels. In fact, "pin heels" are an even more severe stiletto!
