Hot Red Shoes (anonymity not included)

So I have really big feet.  What that means to this blog is that I have trouble finding fun stylish shoes in my size in the regular retail world….so I turn to ebay.  Here is the problem I have in that world: with years of lowered expectations in shoe shopping to rely on, I limit my search criteria to women;s, 11, red.  What happens is that I’m faced with 4-5 fabulous pairs of red size 11 shoes.  Another result of lowered expectations is that I’ve trained myself (and friends) to buy any cute size 11 shoes, ever.  So now I have some cute red pumps, cherry boots, red strapy flats, red loafers and adventurous red sandals.

So mission accomplished.  Go big or go home.

I love my red shoes but I was thinking whilst in the bathroom stall at work the other day that any day I wear (any color) fabulous shoes, I sacrifice certain things.  Like anonymity in the can.  Now this has never been a priority of mine as I’m known to whistle, kick other people (that I know!) and I, without fail, always use the middle stall.  Where was I going with this?  Oh yeah, I haven’t posted this month.  Was it worth the wait?  Seriously though, I’ve yet to find a happy medium between laying low and not engaging unwanted attention and my love for bright, sometimes obnoxious accessories.  I wonder if this is how Big D feels…..

Looking at this post for the past couple of months has made me decide to invest in some red shoes. Maybe even some adventurous ones….
