The Worst Pair of Shoes in The World

I remember the day I bought them.

The Worst Pair of Shoes in The World. For reals.

yep… that’s Criminal Minds on in the background, and one of my kids toys, and some homework… that i still need to do….

They’re super cute, don’t get me wrong. Hell I even tried them on in the store and they were fine to walk in. They’re STILL fine to walk in: on even, level, paved flooring. Even just the slightest change in elevation and you are f**ked.

So, why is it if I can walk on level ground in them I can’t walk elsewhere? It seems like a silly question but heed this as a word of caution to anyone buying those super hot shoes and trying them on in the store. It’s not just the super high heel (approximately 5 inches, I was too lazy to go and get an actual ruler so I could be wrong). It’s mainly the nearly two inch platform on the sole of the shoe. I’ve always had trouble with shoes that have a platform here, but the trouble with these is I can’t feel where I am walking. I mean, I nearly fell down in my own house just going down one step- because I couldn’t feel that the ball of my foot wasn’t fully on the step.

at least my toes look cute too…

I hate to say it, but these shoes will only be used for photo shoots from here on. I did use them in one shoot, actually, but if yall thought it was bad walking in my own house in these yall should have seen me during the shoot…. Jeeeez….

ok, so you can’t see the shoes in here but i was impatient to post and i think the other ones are on another computer…. photo credit: Doug Nurenberger
