Bewitching High Heels



I loved high heels! The verb I used was in the past tense because of my inability to wear one after the accident. But many years ago, I've had several pairs I'd wear on Sundays or during special occasions. I loved how my legs looked whenever I wore one. Admittedly, it can get a bit tiring too when worn for many hours (the consequence of being vain, I suppose *grins).




There are still times when I'd stare at people walking donned with pretty and vibrant high heels. Similarly, I'd still pick up and admire its beauty when I'm at a shoe salon and sometimes wish of being able to comfortably wear one. When I go out and people watch, I'd catch myself gawking at how some would gracefully stride their legs on those gorgeous heels.


 But I am honestly happy with the shoes and sandals I am able to use these days. How about you, what is your shoe preference?

  2. I can no longer wear high heels. Sigh. I seek out and wear the most brightly colored and/or bizarre sneakers I can find.

  4. I love wearing flats and appreciate the many styles, shapes, and sizes there are. I also pretty much said goodbye to wearing heels when diagnosed with slip disc, but maybe a few years from now if I lose weight significantly I can wear them again. to be honest though, I never 'physically' enjoyed wearing them after the first 30 minutes. Sure, I liked the confidence they gave me, but it was too brief a moment to savor for all the hassle it caused. hehe. :)

  6. Your description of watching others walking in heels are my exact words. I have beenstuck wearing a flat shoe with no arch that is a tie on type shoe or a shoe with a strap that has can accommodate a leg brace. I hated it when I was younger...but I fit in quite well now with all the seniors. LOL

  9. I only wear high-heels when I have to dress up at parties or weddings, and when I do, I have an awfully difficult time walking in them. I should try practising at home because I really love the look of high-heels and the posture they give a woman.
