Red shoes at night, sailors delight …
That. is. awesome.
You hit the trifecta of shoe animals.
The rules for red heels on men are simple: Only when the wife’s out of town and always lock the door first.
The heel height thing is HUGE. I just explained this to my husband about a month ago. He had never even considered it. It went like:
Then I showed him the different heel heights while wearing one of the pairs of pants. He gets it now!*
- Other than the fact that he actually asked why I couldn’t just get pants all the same inseam. Oh honey, if I could do that, I’d be the shopping goddess! Even two different 32" inseams aren’t going to be the same!
By the way, ladies, if you want to wear high heels so you personally feel sexier, then go for it, but don’t do so on our behalf without finding out. There are some guys, myself included, who have no particular attraction to high heels. Personally, I’d rather see a lady in something she could go hiking in.
I have small, skinny feet; finding shoes (other than boots or sneakers) that stay on has always been next to impossible. When I do find nice shoes that fit, they’re always hideously expensive compared to the things friends and co-workers talk about buying. I was thrilled when I managed to find a pair of steel-toe shoes (slip-on) for $99; the ladies at work were appalled that I would pay that much for a pair of shoes.
Recently, a store at a nearby mall started carrying several brands and styles that actually fit; to make things even better, Amazon carries these brands in even more styles and colors. I am now out of closet space…I have multiple colors of shoes in multiple styles (to go with all sorts of different outfits, of course). Now that I can find stuff that fits, I love shoes. I’m a shoe whore.
Of course, the shoes are still spendy…
