This Little Piggy Went To Market………

peeptoe

 

Have you been shoe shopping lately?

Shoes are my very favorite accessory.
Especially black shoes………. Black shoes are like black pants. You can never have too many pairs.
But I am not a prejudice shoe lover.
I love them all the same.

What’s in this year to adorn my cute tootsies?
Peep toe shoes.
Black patent peep toe shoes.
Brown leather peep toe shoes.
Red peep toe shoes.
Striped or polka dot peep toes shoes.
Peep toe shoes with buckles on them.
Strappy, sexy peep toe shoes.

But……………

Seriously, have you tried to walk in them for one full day?

These are the most painful things I have ever put my feet through!
Now, I know, sometimes ‘beauty must suffer”, but not like this!

Just how could something so darn cute be a source of sheer torture?
My toes have blisters.
The side of my foot has blisters.
My heels have blisters.

And………….Gawd forbid, I pitch them or simply stop wearing them……….
no, not me……

I will just continue to buy sheer band-aids………..
That’s why they made them, right?

    Love shoes. Love, love love them. Can’t afford nearly as many as I want.

    Have you ever tried mole-skin for blisters? It sticks better then band-aids and really helps!

    I just can’t wear heels, which makes me weep, but probably less than I’d cry after wearing them for a day. I tried on a pair recently and was barely able to walk around to see if I could manage it!

    I was at the shoe store yesterday and was dying to buy some “trampy, Zelzee-would-be-so-proud” strappy, high heeled somethingorother. Then I stood there wondering “And then where would I WEAR THEM?” To mow? To vacuum? To take the kid to swim lessons? To Target? Alas, I ended up with the 5th pair of the athletic slip-ons that I live in.

    Amen to that! All in the name of looking cute!

    There is actually a special band-aid now for covering blisters that help with the healing—-believe me, I should know!

    Love shoes, by the by—as you may know….

    Why are the cute ones so hard to walk in?

    Seriously, I take baby steps in my peep-toes and when I walk out onto the warehouse floor at work, I damn near fall flat on my face.

    ….but it’s so worth it. :)

    Women suffer for beauty in a way that no man ever would. Corsets, high heels, brazilian waxes… they have no idea what we go through for them! LOL

    You’re funny, Z. I have never been a shoe shopper, and I have no clue what you mean by “peep” shoes, but I’m curious. I have learned one thing, though; you DO get what you pay for when it comes to shoes. I have a friend who is wealthy and has lent me shoes a few times. Her shoes feel WONDERFUL!

    OMG at 5′ tall I wear shoes that’ll have a podiatrist loving me some day. I’ll need a foot transplant… hmm wonder if they have platform feet?

    Loves it. Beauty is pain. Life is pain. Might as well be adorable while you ache, right?

    Two weeks ago, I fell flat on my face while wearing the hottest red heels.

    Now I wear wedges and kneepads

    Hugs and Mocha,

    I’m not a huge shoe fan. Except for my orange uggs. ;)
