H is for... High Heels

High heels.  

I wish I could love you. Strike that. 

I do love you. 

I just don't love the way you make me stumble around like a drunk person even when I'm stone cold sober. 

I love the way you make me look (aside from the stumbling and tottering around), and I love how cute a pair of you can be. 

I do not love how I can never fully get used to walking in you. 

I do not love that Joe makes fun of me when we are out and I'm wearing you and tottering like a toddler. 

Don't get me wrong, I'm not giving up on you just yet. 

I do love my modest heels from Cole Haan that I can actually walk in with poise and grace, I just wish all of you were like that pair. 

Being a young professional I know it's not necessarily appropriate for me to wear sneakers every day, even though I would love to! And yes, I can wear flats and be dressy, but there's still something about you. 

While you often make me feel like a klutz, I still aspire to one day be able to wear you without having to slow step or damn near trip over my own feet!

  1. Heels are impressive in more ways than one.

  2. Hi! I'm visiting from AtoZ and saw via Damyanti's blog (amloki.blogspot.com) that your H is also for High Heels, which is mine too :)

    I wish I could strut around in 5-in heels but I can only bear them for an hour and that's it. Good luck for April!

  3. I love heels. I do totter and stumble if I get very much above 2 inches, though.

    I would love to be one of those ladies who walk and run and do all sorts of things in heels. But I think I need more practice first...
