I forgot what it feels like to be on my feet in heels all day long!

There is only one way to wear heals, ladies- platforms. Put 2 inches of padding under the ball of your foot, and those 5 inchers are a much more managable 3 inches, and considerably more comfy. (Plus, I can reach the top shelf of my kitchen cabinets!) They get even better if you put those gel inserts in.

>>Did anyone else see the fashion special the other night with Stacey London (of What Not to Wear)? She went in for foot injections -- they inject collagen into the balls of your feet to help cushion them so you can wear heels! Yikes. She also took a "high heels fitness class" that supposedly helps you build your tolerance to tall shoes.

Yes! The plastic surgery/injections/whatever craziness they did (after telling us that designer shoes are so expensive because they're comfortable and well-made) was too much for me, but I do have that strange pull toward shoes, namely heels (though many of the ballet flats out now are cute)...I certainly can't afford them, but I do drool over Jimmy Choos...too bad I'm not willing to spend 700 dollars on shoes. ::sigh::

Maybe it is a subconscious height thing. I'm ok with being short (aside from when I'm worried I look like a 12 year old with sneakers and sweats on), though, most of the time.

Oh, man, I hate platforms more than I hate heels. I don't like carrying 5 extra pounds on the bottoms of my feet. :)

I agree with cml that there are some cute flats now - yea! I can reach my top kitchen cabinets barefoot, so I am all for cute flats.

AJ, enjoying life with C.
