i tore all the ligaments in my foot back in June when i fell off my wedge sandals Blush
Anyway foot felt better and i wore my lovely heels for about a week - and bugger it i'm now back to square one. Can only wear flats and they could really do with being enclosed or laces etc so said buggered foot doesnt slide about in shoe.

Am mightily pissed off annoyed and dont know where to start.

Any bright ideas??

I have a lot of foot problems and often wear Skechers - the ones that look more like shoes than trainers. I always wear trousers though, don't think they look right with skirts / dresses.

I wear this sort of thing with skirts or dresses.
However I hated heels even before I hurt my ankle, so i see it as a good excuse for wearing comfortable footwear (looks lovingly at Doc Marten boots Grin)

any chance you could get a physio to show you how to strap your foot so you could wear a mid ish heel for your spesh occasions?
What about a low wedge boot (enclosed) would that be out of the question?
Or some pretty ballet ?
Lots of biker type boots about at the moment
bertie have a good sale i think too

thanks for these suggestions, i do have it strapped up all day but even then have been told that the pressure that i would put on the ligaments would be bad Sad
have ballet shoes but could do with being more enclosed and tight (if that makes any sense at all)
Wish i was a doc marten kinda girl but think i look like my little sister!

tbh think i may just wear my slippers and be done with it Grin
