I live in Fitflops and Skechers but have occasional days away from them and then can't wait to have comfy feet the next day. I totally sympathise with your foot pain as I got really bad pain in my heels before I started to wear shoes with thick cushioned soles, maybe not the most attractive but the comfort makes up for that.Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06565054347107281419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4053142505140852136.post-16888873571974357312012-01-30T02:25:37.431+00:002012-01-30T02:25:37.431+00:00ha ha ha snobby asshats.

I've gone up 2 shoe sizes in the last few years & my feet have spread. If I do find a pair of normal shoes I can get my feet into, they are usually such sheer agony, I'm screaming with pain within 10 minutes. People who sneer at all styles of a certain brand (no matter what that brand is) are morons. <br /><br />Good luck to people who can go in any shop & buy any pretty little pair of fashion shoes they like. I've got my first pair of Emu boots this winter & they are a godsend to walk to & from work in (we are not allowed casual <br />shoes or boots at work). I am lusting after those sequined trainers! <br /><br />I completely empathise with your pain & frustration with shoe snobs!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4053142505140852136.post-26179156555180088202012-01-29T17:59:21.376+00:002012-01-29T17:59:21.376+00:00I have such an allergy to Uggs I automatically rec...I have such an allergy to Uggs I automatically recoil in horror.

I am only 5ft2, and I always look for trainers which give me a little bit of height<br /><br />There is a lot of ugg hate going round, mainly around the boots.
