New York women and their shoes striding down Park Avenue
GOR-GEOUS!
Must be so painful though.
Among my friends, I was/am the stiletto queen. My nose turns up at anything with less than a 3-inch elevation, and the thinner the heel, the hotter my lust for them.
In my last job all I needed was a pair of flip-flops and a good pair of hiking boots when required. I only had five pair of stilettos stored, and they would come out even more rarely than I would like. This went on for 3 years.
Coming into my new job, I looked forward to getting back into heels.
However, I am currently wearing a nice pair of studded flip-flops, what I wore from home to walk to work. I have a pair of neglected black stiletto pumps, which I am now pausing writing for so I can put them on.
There. Much better.
As much as I love the sexy, at the moment I can only last a couple of hours in them (standing and walking) and then my feet are in pain and no amount of resting will rescue them and I long for something more comfortable.
This will not be for long. I pledge to train my feet to once again to be the pro of this breed of yummy. I will once again, be able to run in them (as I did in my lecturing days).
P.S. Last night I did squats in my new 4-inch faux snake-skin heels. (I was wearing them in?) I was alarmed for a while when I heard creaking - thought it came from my knees but it was the inside of the shoes rubbing my toe nails. Phew!
