Men and Shoes
I was just thinking about my "shoes addict" the other day...
My friends often asked me "How many pairs of shoes do you have?" Let me put it in this way, if I were to wear different pair each single day, you probably will not see the same shoes twice in 3 months, so go figure...
And I must tell you, finding that perfect pair of shoes are a lot easier than finding that perfect man; a woman can never have too many shoes. You have pump, sandal, sling back, loafer, wingtip, clog, mule, slide, sneaker, Mary Jane...and they come in so many different colors to match your wardrobes and occasions. High heels to be attractive and loafer to be sensible. Can man fit your life like that? NO WAY!
Besides, even if it hurts to wear COOL but PAINFUL shoes, you can always take them off by the time you get home, and kick them under your bed until the next time. And you can always put on those boring but comfortable flat loafer the next morning.
The other day I was at a department store, shoes department, having a tough time to choose between a pair of jade green strappy sandals and brown criss-cross sling back. I tried both on and walked around, simply could not determine which one is the best. So I left the store to clear my mind, then I returned to the store an hour later. COULD NOT decide! Then two complete strangers (and life saver) said, "Hey, they both look so cute on your feet! I would die to have feet like yours"
So, at that very moment feeling like the biggest winner in the whole world, I BOUGHT two pairs of new shoes.
See, a woman can never have too many shoes. And finding that perfect pair of shoes and live happily ever after is not just fairy tale after all.
