This reminds me. I looooove shoes. Have been a shoe addict my whole life. I also adore high heels and used to wear them all day. But, now that I'm older, is really hard on my back, and my feet hurt like mad. So, what do I do? I keep buying those super high heel Louboutin's and only wear them out to dinner and have to take them off once I get home. That annoys me!!
Me too.
I used to wear high heels out, platform wedgie sandals or knee boots, strappy sandals, gorgeous stilleto knee boots.
I worked in fashion while I lived in Amsterdam, how I managed to totter over all those cobblestone streets, I have no idea.
I swear I shortened my achilles, and when I started to work in a lab again and wore flats, it was agony for the first few months.
Then I ruptured my achilles.
Wearing heels is only becoming possible now after nearly 2.5 years, and I have a psychological block about going out all day with only the heels.
This is what sucks, I must have nearly 20 pairs of strappy heels and the same number of fabulous knee boots.
Unless I can't get them zipped up over my calves, I am having a really hard time parting with them, even though I rarely wear them now.
Needless to say, I have been seeking out funky or sexy flat shoes and boots.
At least at a UK 5/US 7, I never have problems finding shoes.
