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….
