High heels seem to all HURT

drink lots of wine...it numbs the pain

Start with wedges - quite low wedges can make a difference and stick 2.5 inches on your legs.

You dont have to wear high heels.

There are some gorgeous flat shoes.

I used to be 'high-heel girl'

Now I am 'sensible flatties woman'

[ho hum]

nomdeplume · 18/08/2007 20:05

The embarrassing (is it 2 'r's and 2 's's, I can never remember sand have had wine) truth is that I can;t drive in heels

see yummy

Boredveryverybored · 18/08/2007 20:16

I love high heels, have always been a high heel person, but live in flats day to day. Could no way do everything I need to do every day wearing heels!
I save mine for when I get dressed up, makes you feel even more 'dressed' aswell if you dont normally wear them

elasticbandstand · 18/08/2007 20:19

i can't walk in high heels, definately not Foxy,
