I bought a pair of Bata shoes last Sunday. Quite out of character. Paraded it at home as I stomped up and down the hall. The green was a pastel soothing grass-green which was reminisent of the pair of clarks I saw two weeks earlier.
Exactly a week later...the shoes made its first outting. My first few steps were a little wobbly. I attributed that to being horizontal for the better part of the morning. But after a bit, my arch felt like it was being pushed into a yoga-like dreaded position. My second toe ( it's always the second toe ) started complaining a bit.
And so, the pair of shoes must retire to the graveyard of shoes. I'm sure the even the poor wouldn't want to be hobbling along.

My pet peeve is trying out a pair of shoes at the store. Making the decision to buy it. Only to find out later that it hurts.
I know the feeling well. Used to make a habit out of making bad decisions ....I see the habit growing on me once again.Damm!! :)
I have a more difficult time with handbags/purses. I've wasted more money on purses I hate. Finding that my stuff doesn't fit, or getting one in which I have to dump out the contents to find my car keys every time...Purses must have juusst the perfect dig-ability!
Current handbag is a wee denim item. And it houses: car keys, housekeys,handphone,digital camera,rectangular purse, obligatory lipstick and a biro. How's that for managing with the bare essentials??
I still think BATA is cool... well at least the cheap ass slippers/flip-flops are.
Nope, not quicksilver, my Speedos are too heavy, Clarks ~ a tad too "uncle-ish"... blah blah blah
;)
