Shoe Talk

this morning i was looking for a pair of sandal to wear to work. it's friday, dress down day, sandal day. i knew i had that pair of sandal but i couldn't locate it. storeroom, shoe cabinet, another shoe cabinet still couldn't find it. it took me quite some time of digging until i found it. while walking to the mrt i realised that this sandal didn't really match the pants i'm wearing. time to get a new shoe? ah .. shoes.
i don't know what's it with the obsession women have with shoes until i watch this movie. true indeed, you will always feel good after getting a pair of new shoes as it wouldn't give you any physical warnings - all it does is adding a new line in your bank statement. platform, kittenheels, stillettos, boots, sandals, thongs, open-toe, there are so many types of shoes out there that it would justify our action on getting a pair of each type.
well it might not apply to every woman. a friend of mine will only buy herself one shoe for work until its worn off before getting a new one. another friend will buy the same shoe in different colour if she finds it comfortable, only two and that's it. another friend of mine buys only those basic color, and even purchasing one requires lots on consideration. my ex-colleague has a 'one in one out' rule imposed by her hubby - that is, when a new pair of shoes enter the house, one of the old pair has to go out. whereas for me? i think i'd stick to adding my shoe collection for as long as i shall live.
