Shoes and Our Life ...

As little girls, - most - dream about the day when they too can wear high heeled shoes ...

The discovery of designer fashion high heels ~ takes our dreams and imagination to new heights ...

We study and work hard to be able to slip our toes into the most beautiful heels, we can afford ...

Then ... often without warning... something happens in life. 

Leaving  uncertainty of what shoes to now walk in.

The very beauties that seemed like a natural extension of you, that gave that extra inch or two are now the enemy. You can no longer balance without the safety of walls.

Where will you dreams take you? 

And what shoes will you be slipping your toes into?

Stay in Step with High Heeled Life ...

Every High Heel Loving Gal’s worst nightmare…

….. (Especially when she depends on heels to give her that extra 2 or 3 inches nature forgot to give her) is being told that heels are no longer a sensible option - when one can’t  get-around without the aide of a wheel chair or cane. Well, that was me at the beginning of my detour.  Now 3 1/2  years later I still turn to flats as my rescue (not saying that I like it ... but hey, at least I'm walking..) and am looking to incorporate a few pairs into my wardrobe - once I figre out my "new" style and thus shoe needs to accompany it.

So what does a well heeled girl do when heels are no longer a sensible option – turn to flats of course? But not just any flats – imagine my delight when an, oh so sweet friend gifted me with 2 pairs of Christian Louboutin flats. I didn’t even know CL flats existed until that day.

Here are some current Christian Louboutin flats being offered at Net-A-Porter (my new favorite internet friend..LOL). I'll be waiting for them to go on sale .... and hope they are still there during the Final Sale.. really liking the Rosella leather flats.

When walking is only required from house to car and from car to destination, with little walking required thereafter, I slip on some heels. It took me some time to adjust to bringing those [flat shoes] along “just in case”. But my fashionable flats remain close at hand and often save me from myself.

What are your go to flats – when heels must come off (kicking and screaming, of course)?
