I think I lose my mind when I go shopping. It takes me forever to find anything I like, but then suddenly I like everything. I end up having to convince myself not to buy most of the stuff. Especially shoes. I went to Famous Footwear tonight to get shoes for salsa since we plan on going to lessons every week. I found a pair with a strap holding the back on (which is what the instructor said we needed), and the heel isn’t too high or too thin, and the bottom is smooth enough to spin easily on the floor. I didn’t want to get leather-soled shoes because they get ruined so quickly walking through the city. These will definitely do though because they’re not rubbery or grippy at all. I had another pair of shoes I was wearing for a while at the store, but I finally convinced myself not to get them since I don’t have much to match brown shoes and the heels were 4 inches (which I try not to wear too often since it makes me over 6’2″). I texted pictures of the shoes to 2 friends, who were supposed to discourage me from buying both pairs, but instead they told me to do it. But I resisted. I haven’t been to a Famous Footwear in years though. I forgot how nice their shoes are, and usually comfortable, and with decent prices too. The gorgeous shoes I got at Target a couple months ago hurt so much I can’t wear them again – Famous Footwear had very similar, very COMFORTABLE ones for like $8 more. I knew Target shoes would be painful but they were so cute. Never again. I’m shopping here from now on.
I may or may not have a shoe fetish. It’s not like I buy expensive ones at all though. Hmmm…
