After all my success at the slot machines recently, I decided to treat myself. So i went shopping online and made the following purchases.
| "Pointy toe platform pump with all leather upper. 4.5" heel and 3/4" platform." I own this shoe in black patent and it is very comfortable. I have worn it for hours on end without a complaint. I wanted a closed-toe pump in nude, so I figured I could not go wrong with Nine West's Love Fury. |  |
| "Mary Jane round toe pump with adjustable ankle strap on a 4" heel." |  |
| Payless Kourtship Satin Sandal "It features a strappy upper, rhinestone accents, elastic ankle strap, padded footbed, 4" heel, 1/2" platform, and a sturdy outsole. Manmade materials." I will be attending One Big Event later this month and I plan to wear a $189 cocktail dress that I purchased for $10 on clearance from Spiegel. I did not have any shoes to go with the dress, so I bought these from Payless. But now I wonder if I should wear the nude Nine West platform pumps instead. (The Spiegel model showing the dress is wearing nude pumps and they look great with the dress.) |  |
| Muse Colorblock Sheath Dress "Circular neckline, faux pockets below waist, back button closure, fully lined." |  |
| Avon Elements Moisture Boost Eye Cream "For both Normal and Combination Skin. Provides long-lasting moisturization. Suitable for sensitive skin. Hypoallergenic. Eye area feels hydrated and refreshed for hours." As an Avon representative, I received this as a sample and began using it about four weeks ago. I love this product and just ordered a second tube. I agree wholeheartedly with one reviewer who wrote, "It goes on nice and smooth but it is not oily or greasy (or drying either). I've been using it every morning for a month now and I would highly recommend it" Also, by moisturizing the eye area, I find that it disguises the fine lines around my eyes; although the lines are still there, they are less noticeable. |  |

I really think that the white satin shoes from Payless look great and would go well with the dress but I have to agree that the model wearing the nude pumps looks very well put together. Good luck with your choice. Often when I go out I take two pair of shoes ~ both the give me the chance to make a last minute pick when I exit the car and to give me an option if pick #1 starts to hurt and I need to change shoes in the middle of the event or at least for the drive home.

Dear Scalesman,
DeleteI always carry a large black purse. The black color goes with any outfit. If I'm wearing high heels, I keep a pair of flats in the purse. If my feet start to bother me, I simply put on the flats, and the purse is large enough to hold 3" high pumps. Being 69 years young, I'm over suffering when high heels start to hurt ... I want comfort. Fortunately, my favorite pairs of pumps usually don't hurt unless I stand around for more than 10 minutes at a time.
I enjoy your frequent posts!
Love,
Sheila.
Sheila,
DeleteI enjoy your comments as well. Most of my shoes are broken in to the point where I can go the evening but I like to take a spare pair as well. Within the last year I bought my first two pair of flats and while I have taken them with me for relievf they have not been worn in a public setting. Once when the stilettos were hurting I did slip into the flats for the drive home. I figure at 6' tall and 61 years old that I should have a few flat woman's shoes.
I like the idea of an oversized purse.
You keep on writing and if I get to your neck of the woods with time on my own I will let you know. Every time I am in your fine state my time is tight and I am always with others.
Stana, I admire the fact you do not let your height discourage you from wearing heels. So many tall women are afraid of them. Go girl!
