Happy Feet? Eh ... not so much.

So ... I'll just go ahead and say it. I have issues with my feet. Always. Have. And what I really ... really ... need to know is ... do you have any similar issues and if so, what the heck do you do about them? Here goes: I cannot ... repeat cannot, wear a new pair of shoes without "breaking them in." When the PDaddy and I were first married, he found this to be a curious and yet disturbing fact about me because in his entire life, he had always just ... worn ... his new shoes without any angst at all. I have memories of every single new pair of shoes in my life involving Blood, Blisters and always ... always ... Bandaids.

So I wore these tres chic silver flats on some errands on Saturday. They fit, they are comfortable ... and now they have blood on them. I actually started out to take pictures of my heels with bandaids on them, but decided to spare you. I will admit that I was wearing them without socks, but seriously people ... have you read In Style lately? ... celebrities (and all 4 of my daughters) are managing to wear shoes with bare feet with nary a bandaid in sight. Why can't I? Is it too much to ask?

And that's not my only problem. I have problems keeping certain shoes ... on. Like, I slip out of them when I walk in them which makes me look like a four year old wearing her mother's shoes. Take these chic little espadrilles, pictured above. I bought them two years ago and have only worn them once because of the aforementioned problem. It was suggested to me to get Heel Liners, which I did and they didn't work. So recently I bought another pack because ... well, is it possible I didn't attach them at the right place? Help me here, people. I want to wear these shoes this spring.

Speak up I tell you, because if you don't ... I just might post those pictures of my feet and you will regret that, I promise.
