I also hope...So glad you are having lovely weather! I also hope you get all the rain you need ... we need that blend of rain and warm evenings that will make our pasture grow!<br />Dubious. Well, okay. I'm really not lying to you, and the word *comfortable* may be at issue here. By comfortable, I mean that when I put them on, my toes aren't pinched or rubbed or cramped in the toe box. If I can wiggle the toes, that's comfortable. If the arch support of the shoe fits my foot, that means comfort. Some brands work better than others. And then if the heel of the upper fits mine, I'm usually in business and am comfortable. I think the shape of my foot is an easy fit generally. So when I say a high-heeled shoe is comfortable, that's pretty much what I mean. It's comfortable to me.<br />But the other part of comfort is in the head. You have to have the desire to wear them, to learn to walk in them, and to take all the flack you get from those that don't. I'm not just petite, I'm short and round. In my opinion, higher heels provide balance in my appearance, and I like the way my legs and backside look in them. I am attentive to the health of my feet and legs, and I spend a lot of my time barefoot or in flat shoes at home. <br />I understand if others don't wish to wear them, or have difficulties wearing them, or are put off when they see them for personal or political reasons. (I could write a whole post on this, any may do so one of these days!) But I and my tootsies are not lying to you when I say a particular pair are comfortable. All high heels are not created equal.<br />Glad you like my loud jeans ... that's how I think of them. It seems counter intuitive to put the print on the bottom, but it works better than I thought it might as a style-tactic!<br />Have a great week!

Our weather has been unusually perfect this spring - gorgeous sunny days, just starting to get too hot, but rain is in the forecast (and it's welcome for a day or two).<br /><br />I'm always dubious when someone says their high heels are comfortable. If you're sitting, I'm sure they are, but I have a low threshold when it comes to comfortable shoes. I would love to wear more heels, but usually regret it.<br /><br />I love those pants - they look wonderful on you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864029619879531761.post-38565268583768751042013-05-10T15:50:49.987-05:002013-05-10T15:50:49.987-05:00How kind of you.

Also some dressy-ish sandals that will go later in summer (87 degrees C., just under 31 F. and this is just the beginning ...)Also an orange and navy top that I completely love. Good day shopping! This is the kind of shopping I like best: picking up go-with pieces to compliment other, favorite pieces. I should stop soon, for this season anyway!<br />Have a great week ... can't wait to see what you choose for the warmer months there!
