When cute flats attack
Don’t just sit back and gab,
Flapping and yapping
In an endless delirium

Instead, bravely
Soldier on,
Suck it up
And stride forth

Stifle the groans and
Indecipherable moans,
And if need be
Pick up some Dr. Scholl’s

Because for any cute shoe
From Stilettos to
Its’ sister in flats
No price is too steep

Glad you enjoyed my write-up about flats, the good and the bad.

As lover of shoes, it was a joy to write. Painful, but worth it. For unnatural killers they sure are aesthetically and poetically pleasing. (Sorry for the rambling).

Sidenote: Dr. Scholls lies with regards to their advertisement, at least in my case because I don't believe that bruised heels constitue "feeling crazy good." Oh course I guess it all depends on the style of shoe they make.

Enjoyed your humor about shoes.  My poor feet never can seem to find a pair that aren't killers.  This summer, my big sis took me to a shoe store in her state where every pair I tried on fit perfectly!  I bought more shoes to take home than I've bought in ten years!  When the shoe fits, wear it!!!  Amazing, they were even good looking shoes!

Enjoyed your comment.

Miscellanea-Shoes are sure fickle sometime. Don't I know it. I have a feeling you would love DSW. Yay for rows upon rows of shoes.

I can't wait until I can have a (shoe) shopping spree like you. I usually only find one of two fitting,cute shoes when I go shopping. I guess I'm too picky. Or I have bad luck with regards to size.

Enjoyed your comment.
