4.5 ‘ taller

My feet ached as I struted across the street on my way back to the hotel yesterday. I had worn a pair of black stilettoes to work, one of the beautiful looking pointed toe ones that I picked up from Anabel’s quaint little shoe-store at Bugis. I was waiting to get back , remove them and lie down on the bed.

I love wearing heels. I like feeling taller than most around. I love the way they make you walk. Poised , Lady-like with slow steps , serenly graceful. Most of the time when I wear them, I like to stretch my legs forward or cross them so that I can admire them on my feet.. Vanity!!..I know.

It was comfortable walking on the carpeted floor of the office. Once on the way to the food court walking on the granite flooring of the mall and through the MRT , it turned out to be quite an ordeal.I wonder how women wear them almost everyday to work. I saw a lady in the train today wearing a short skirt, exposing the varicose veins on her thigh.. and the heels she was wearing would have definitely aggravated that condition.

I’d rather take to wearing them only for a brief visit to a nearby mall or maybe a restaurant or a movie where get to sit most of the times. For tomorrow, flats will do just fine.
