My new favorite shoes

You may think that because I have a shoe store I get my pick of shoes.
If you think that, I have to tell ya, YOU ARE SO WRONG.  {Ahem} Sorry, I didn't mean to be so blunt.

What I mean is, with a size 12 foot I still don't get to pick any shoe I want.  Lots of brands don't even make a size 12 in ANY of their shoes.  I know it's shocking, it's an atrocity, it's scandalous.  But it's true.  And it's the sad straw that I have drawn.  Oh the deprivation, the tears, the nightmares...

All this to say that sometimes I am forced to choose fashion over comfort.  I know it's wrong.  I really do.  But sometimes I just can't help it.  A girl has to be a girl even with size 12 feet.  So recently I went on a shoe trying on spree at the store.  I tried on all the size 11's of my favorite cute styles to try and find one that might fit.  And I use the term fit very loosely.  I needed something to wear that was a little dressy, cute, girly, and didn't look like I was squeezing into something I shouldn't.  (Goodness knows I get enough of that in my jeans but you can't suck in your heels like you can your stomach.)  The hunt was on and I was not giving up easily.  I went through boxes of shoes.  I was by far my own worst customer.  And then I found the pair.  The one's that I thought would work.  I painstakingly checked my heels out in the mirror a million times trying to make sure know one could tell I was in a shoe one size too small.  I got numerous opinions from unsuspecting customers.

So without further adieu...here is my new favorite shoes.  I think they would be extremely comfortable if they were the right size and the arch actually was in the right spot.  But all that aside, I love them.  The fit my criteria and they make me feel girly.  It's a win-win.

(Okay minus the size too small they are a win-win).
