Imelda Marcos I am not. But that doesn't mean I am without my aspirations.
In fact, I waste a lot of money on cute, but impractical footwear. Here's the twist- practically all shoes are off limits. Yesterday really got my goat, I dazzled in a sweater dress and leggings. It was all hunky-dory until I realized that I had gotten all dolled up to leave the house. Pssha, that meant shoes. There were those oh so adorable black corduroy flats. Nope, I'd be walking and without ankle support that would stink. They weren't exactly orthotic friendly.
Well, what about the black leather knee boots. Hmm, they a half inch heel. I have turf toe so that'll add pressure to my big toe and no walking. Shit, what's a girl to do. Well, I don't know what a normal girl would do- but you should know, I straight up ROCKED the purple and silver New Balances...
I have had that experience soooo many times. I rock little girls sneakers with my hot mom clothes. I'm currently having wedding shoe anxiety. What did you wear to yours?
ReplyDeleteHa! It's a long story, but I ended up going barefoot. I bought white ballet slippers, which would have been okay, but 1. my foot rolled so far over in them that it bothered me and; 2. Geoff's friends with Cuban traditions insisted on putting pennies in my slipper for good luck. All the pennies rolled with my foot bothering me more.
Deleteps: we have very similar taste in shoes! I love it.
