Be My Valentino
Marilyn Monroe sure knows what she was talking about when she said, “Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world,” ’cause I sure feel powerful when I can finally reach for a cup in the kitchen cabinets, the microwave that’s conveniently located on top of the fridge, the cereal box on a high shelf somewhere and other randomness without having to look for a stool. Thank you high heels, what would life be like without you?
(Valentino Rockmance Leather Pumps)
Aren’t these babies lovely? After trying them on and realizing they weren’t my size, my WWICHD (want-what-I-can’t-have disorder) kicked in and I went on a crazy rampage in search for them. I’ll try to spare you the details of my nutty frenzy…in short I called every NM in the U.S. frankly because I didn’t trust the system, and as luck would have it one pair finally popped up. It was a very kind person in Hawaii who rather wear flip flops than high heels that decided to pass these up.
So here they are, the last size 5 resting atop a little red box on my bedroom floor that I watched go to bed the first night they came home….Ok, I didn’t really do that but I did pull it out and tried it on about 18 times! Haha, I hope I’m not alone here…Ladies, do you have any funny/crazy shoe stories?
