kind of an overlap with the bag a week thread or the marie kondo one-- this whole thing about shoes has had me going in my closet, trying on shoes I haven’t worn in a while, giving one pair another chance yesterday, etc. The pair I wore yesterday is just a tiny tiny bit too tight in the toes, where my feet are a little wide. (And my 3rd and 4th toes are kind of long.) All day I was kind of thinking, oh, as long as I don’t wear them for a day with too much walking, they’re not SO bad, and then I thought, do they spark joy? Nope. Not a bit. Because they’re just not comfortable! Out they go. Then I saw the lovely pink taryn rose pumps above and thought about similar shoes I have that just won’t stay on my feet all the time, again, they ALMOST work. But not quite. Out!
And the shoes I used to wear as dress up black sandals, which have a good arch support, good coverage, not too high a heel? Too stretched out to feel secure. A bit shabby looking. And, although they are not too high, they have a slender heel that doesn’t feel secure any more. Out!
And why were all three pairs still hanging around in my closet?
I think I need the reinforcement from all of you who are saying that shoes should be comfortable!
