“Man, I feel like a woman”
I told you a while back that I have no sense of style. Well, that’s still true. But Sunday I made a purchase that I’m pretty proud of.
We were out doing some shopping for Nathan. He never buys clothes or shoes, and was in need of a new wardrobe few essentials. Let me just say that shopping with and for someone else kind of sucks. Especially when said person doesn’t like any of the things I pick out for them! But that’s not the point here.
Nathan desperately needed some new shoes, so we headed over to DSW. I don’t know how to describe what came over me when I saw this pair of heels. It was love at first sight. I tried them on, but they were too small, so I frantically looked for a bigger size. Here’s the thing. I’m not really a heels wearing kind of gal. In fact I can’t say I’ve ever owned any heels like this. My practical side kept insisting that I will never wear these shoes, but something deep within urged me to throw caution to the wind and just buy them.
Since this was supposed to be Nathan’s shopping trip, I asked him about the shoes. I told him that I knew I didn’t need them, that I would probably never wear them, and that there were some really cute sandals that I was also considering. But he liked the heels. So it was settled.
I now have a pair of smoking hot red heels that I’ll be shocked to wear twice, but I don’t even care. Just having them in my closet makes me feel a bit like a different person. Like the kind with sexy shoes in their closet. Now if I can just become the type to wear sexy shoes, I’ll be all set!



TOTALLY HOT! I love heels too, even though i dont wear them all that often either. And i LOVE red shoes. Good job!
Thank you! Means a lot coming from a stylish lady like yourself:)
I’m pretty sure that was the most reasonable purchase to make this time of year. You have holiday shoes! I love them. Wear them to December’s book club/Xmas party
Oh, I hadn’t even thought of that, but you make an excellent point Ashley! Holiday shoes. Perfect.
I know what you mean!! I love the way they look and how they look on me, but I just can’t wear them! Heels are so painful and it sucks they are what’s sexy and not flats!
Also, life would be so much easier if the guys just let us pick out their clothes. They’d be dressed better and everyone would be happier!
I agree! I decided on the last shopping trip that I’m just going to start getting him a shirt here and a shirt there when I’m out shopping for myself and present them as “gifts.” It would be really rude not to wear it if it was a gift, right?
so cute!!!
