Attention women of sj.com

I walk better in heels than I do in flats.

 

Sorry.

I'm tall enough I don't need heels, and my trashed foot tells me if I even think of wearing anything remotely resembling high heels it will shoot me dead.

 

Pretty pumps. Try wearing them to a soccer game in below freezing weather. It ain't happening.

I wore pumps last week for the first time in two years (3.5 inch ones). My feet ached for three days afterward. Ouch.

 

I went to a conference in Chicago a couple years ago. Our guide told us the place we were walking to for dinner was just a few blocks away. We ended up walking about four-miles round trip, and I was wearing three-inch heels. I could barely put the shoes on the next day.

 

If you want to make a habit of wearing pointy-toed shoes, make sure they're a size larger than your foot. Either that, or go for the gusto of Blahniks or Jimmy Choos.

For work, I stay away from the pumps. I find a pair of Frye boots to be quite versatile.



However, if I'm in the office for the day I also have a really cute pair of black kitten heels with the pointy toes.

 

I just saw Inside Man and I guess Jodie Foster was wearing Blahniks. Holy fuck those things are amazingly hot. And insanely expensive, I'm sure.

 

Dammit! I can't access on my BlackBerry. Damn fried laptop screen anyway! Screw it.

 

Do we want to know why TSP is prowling sites for ladies shoes?

 

He was shopping for me for Christmas. Duh!

 

It's best left unsaid.

 

Those shoes = visit with chiropractor.


Personally, I'm tall enough that a pointy-toed kitten heel is perfect with a pair of designer jeans. And a white leather Coach bag.
