So, I am embarking on this quest to prove to myself that I REALLY must continue to own 51 (that's right people, 51) pairs of shoes. Today was Day 1 of this epic journey.
I have been talking to everyone about this idea that I have, and surprisingly have been feeling encouraged by their reactions. Because, while this is admittedly a weird endeavor, it also has potential to be interesting. My friend Lori suggested that I label all of my shoes with a number, 1-50, and then just wear whatever shoes correspond with the day of the "challenge". Great idea, Lor! But then, her husband Dave suggested that I take it a step further and not only label them, but also put those numbers in a hat and then pull a number out of a hat each night and include whatever the shoes are going to be for the NEXT day with the blog from that day's shoes. Even better idea, Dave! So, thanks to my ever inventive friends, this idea became even more Fabulously Ridiculous. However, I think it is too late on this, the end of the first day of my challenge, to really change the rules of the game, so instead I am going to share my shoes from today and just glance over into my closet and see what shoes look interesting....
Today's shoes were fabulous. My tan heels with gold embellishments made by my good friend Steve Madden. I personally love the, because I bought them for a portion of the full retail price from Marshalls. I got them this past summer and boy, have they taken me places! Today they took me all throughout the halls of my work, and I even ran in them (proving my theory that I really CAN do everything in high heels!) We went to Happy Hour together---note to self, do not wear high heels to BJ's during Happy Hour...those floors are slippery and I almost ate it several times. These shoes have been good to me. They were a great choice to "kick off" this challenge, but I am sad that I now have to say goodbye to them for 50 days. Au Revoir my dear friends, I will miss you. But I am confident we will meet again.
Tomorrow's shoes....black and white polka dot pumps with a red heel.
