And I didn't have enough time to shop further from them, so I found a compromise pair at Marshall's.

Then I noticed I was tripping over my feet and falling more...and noticed that at my age even the short women eschewed 2.5 inch heels. Since I've moved down to less than two inches, I've not fallen. IMAGINE THAT. And since I am 5'10" I don't need the additional height anyway. WHEN you win a book for your mysteries, I will advise you on what shoes to wear to be fancy, and they will be low. Check out Zappos.com for thousands of wonderful choices. OH I could write chapters on the joys of Zappos. I once ordered five pair and returned four. No shipping ever. Then a woman told me she ordered 23 and returned 22. No charge. Zappos does not care. Amazing. kkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02296326994943617709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-26087566004820550992014-05-30T13:09:56.000-04:002014-05-30T13:09:56.000-04:00A kindred spirit!!!

My closet boasts one pair of sandals, one pair of black shoes, one pair of brown shoes, two pairs of tennies (one pair suitable for going out in public and one ratty pair for working in the yard, and one pair of snow boots.

When latex allergy required all-new shoes, my shoe mavin, Margie at Gene's Shoes, found latex-free options . . . including some lady-like dressy flats, which I also seldom wear. I want comfortable, happy feet, so sturdy walking shoes, sandals, and clogs . . . functional . . . (a few storytelling friends tell in their stocking feet . . .connection with the Earth. I may try that sometime ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
