none! you can say: I �m wearing high heels or use "high-heeled shoes" which is a compound adjective and say: I �m wearing high-heeled shoes. |

umm .. correct if I �m wrong please .. but I think �high-heeled shoes � is for shoes in general and �high heel shoes � is the term specifically used for ladies � shoes with a high heel ..

In NY, we usually just say "high heels" or "heels" to describe ladies � dress shoes.
I believe that "high heeled shoes" is correct, but I have never heard a native English speaker say it this way.

I think we say "I �m wearing high-heeled shoes" or "I �m wearing shoes with high heels" |

We ladies downunder usually say:
I �m wearing heels tonight, or
I �m wearing high heels tonight, or
I �m wearing high heeled shoes tonight (more formal).
I haven �t heard of your definition before julianbr. Maybe someone else can clarify.
Cheers - Jayho

I �m with Sassouki: "high heels" or "high-heeled shoes".
