Pumps are your friends

"There are only two kinds of women in the world. Those who love shoes and those who had the misfortune to be born without the ability to experience total bliss on finding a pair of perfectly designed pumps in the right size at half price."

Every girl loves an occasion to put on a pair of heels. At least this girl does.
In preparation for a semi-formal, my friends and I went shopping. But who really needs an excuse to go shopping? It was much to my dismay when they expressed to me their fear of heels. Sure, flats are cute and all, but they lack a certain element of glamour/ intensity/ audaciousness/ joie de vivre that is embodied in the heel. I've been jonesin' for these Petal Cut-out pumps from Delia's.These are just very aestheticaly pleasing.Classic black. But not really. With a twist. Steve Madden.


Reasons to wear heels:
1* It'll make you aware of your posture. They make you stand up straight or else you'll fall over, which would not be glamorous.
2* Most people stand on their heels of their feet. The heel forces your weight to be distributed more evenly. Granted you find comfortable heels. Yes, there are comfortable heels out there.
3* For those of us who are vertically challenged *ahem* they can add inches to our, I mean your height.
4* The clickety-clack sound they make is like music. Lovely.
5* You can't say you don't feel great in heels. That extra pop in your step. Each foot down exudes more confidence than the one before. There is power in the pump. Embrace it.
