Breaking in Heels

             One of my best friends, Kitty, is getting married.  I’m her maid of honor and I’m sooo excited.  The wedding is in November, it’s gonna be great and I’m determined to wear my shoes for as long as I can that day.  Why you ask?  Three reasons.  1. I am short.  I’ll take the boost in height from my heels when and where ever I can.  2. They match the dress and look better than my Old Navy flip flops I'll inevitably be rocking by the end of the night.  3. Most importantly they make my ass look incredible in the dress.  Heels naturally change your posture making the tush look better in EVERYTHING.   Being well endowed in that area and damn proud and like to call attention to it when i can.  

Now as most of you know being in heels for something like 12 hours straight is no easy feat (no pun intended). All the while standing for pictures, dancing, mingling ect.. The only chance I have is a well broken in shoe.  Luckily I already wore them to the bridal shower but that’s not enough.  I need to be able to run a marathon in these puppies.  I do not however want them ruined by constantly going outside in them.  So what did I do today?  I cleaned my apartment while wearing my 4.5 inch peep toe pumps.  I don’t mean I was on my hands and knees scrubbing and bleaching the bathroom.  I’m not retarded.  I didn’t even go near chemicals for fear of drips.  I dusted, vacuumed, organized my closets, put away laundry, changed my sheets, ect.  I need you to picture this.  I’m in stretch pants,a hoody and heels, dancing around with my Ipod blasting while holding a swiffer.  I looked insane. 

I had those bad boys on for a good 4 hours straight.  Were my feet sore? Not as much as you would think which leaves me hopeful for the big day.  My advice to all of you with shoes to break in: kill two birds with one stone.  I think what I did today was the perfect way to break in a shoe without running the risk of destroying them.   Some other ideas:

-Wear them with socks

-Go to the movies

-Go food shopping

-Run errands

-Make someone take you out to dinner

-Have a dance party by yourself. (be careful with this. You don’t want a broken ankle) 

Some of these things may require you to leave the house and possibly look like an idiot but it’s for the greater good so who cares.  I’ll most likely do one or more of the above activities within the next month.  I’ll let you know how my feet held up after the wedding.
