Crumbs they are high (pinkbubble you really need to try and get some grown up shoes) Mine are all flatties!

i live in crocs, on the whole..

they are lovely though

if i stand still all night, i think i'll be ok, or i;ll have to hold on to DH !

i will definitely be in trouble after a few drinks

wedges are ok to walk in - easier than stilletoes IME/O

they are v nice - just spend a lot of the eveing leaning against things, looking alluring and no-one will notice you can't walk in them

Cool packs in the fridge, nip out every now and again and apply to swelling feet.

lulumama · 30/12/2007 21:58

thank you

they are lovely

i shall practice my leaning on the wall looking alluring, rather than looking like my feet are going to implode look

and stock up on ice !

Have you got them on now, Lulu?

Perhaps you should practice gliding rather than staggering, you've still got time.

Heifer · 30/12/2007 22:11

Jesus lulu! they are proper grown up shoes!

Won't they give you cramp? Surely you feet will be in the slam foot on brake position all night...

Got to ask, what will you be wearing them with?

Izzybel · 30/12/2007 22:18

I can't walk in high heeled shoes. Wedges aren't too bad though. I always have to stick to wimpy, small, kitten heels, lol. Get very when I see gorgeous high heels in the shops, but at least when I go out I'm not walking like someone's shoved a stick up my bum! Hope you have a great night Lulu!

Izzybel · 30/12/2007 22:19

you should try and break them in, in the house.

pinkbubble · 30/12/2007 22:36

What about getting some of those party feet! Not sure if they work, but you could become the guinea pig for MN and let us all know!

lulumama · 31/12/2007 08:30

heifer.. i have a bronzey coloured dress, and they are better than crocs, no?

i will wear them later when the house is tidied, and practice gliding

thanks all, hope you all have fun too!

i wore them ! they were fab.. i had to sit down for most of the night, or cling onto DH or my friends if i was walking more than 3 steps, but what a night !

Happy new year !!
