Shoes ever again?

Apart from a couple (well 4 or so) pairs of “smart” shoes which in any case rarely see the light of day, I seem to live in trainers- dog walking trainers, white or blue smarter trainers and a new pair of taupe suede /nubuck trainers.
I can’t imagine ever wearing regular shoes again barring the very occasional formal occasion.
Boots in Winter, trainers or Birkies in Summer if it ever warms up again and that’s it.
I love shoes and used to run Imelda Marcos a close second, but those days are gone .
Am I alone? I suspect not!

Have you been to the Kokua shop in Barcelona?

MerylStreep Absolutely lovely - as you say. I will keep an eye on that website for future ideas - if my feet feel ready for shoes again smile

I sometimes get my shoes from www.andypola.es/en/ as they have a nice range and cater for all sizes.

I could never wear anything so high as the Aquazzura shoes - oh my! Beautiful but never for me. The highest I was ever comfortable with is about 3", and a bit sturdier heel. I've twisted my ankle on a stiletto, and there's nothing more un-ladylike than a splat on the dancefloor!

I don't have occasion for heels anymore, hopefully things will get a bit more social, but my heel height will stay reasonable. I love the comfort of wedges for summertime.
