I love how shoes are so overpriced. /sarcasm

On Monday for Writing Seminar, my Prof. took out a black high heel and told us to write something about it for 15 minutes or so? I'm not going to go all philosophical over it, but here's an essay to read if you're interested: High on Heels? Society's Obsession with Pain

Of all accessories, I adore earrings and shoes the most (are shoes accessories? :P). I don't know why, I just do. My mood changes with every pair of earrings or shoes, in the sense that I'll carry myself slightly differently. Enough bullshiting, I did some online 'window shopping', and here are some pictures to share.

Aside from the obvious fact that the prices are way out of my league, they are also too tall! I probably can't do anything in those shoes except sit down? It's sickening that high heels are so lovely but so painful. While I wish they had lower heels so I could actually wear them, I also know that they won't look half as good if they weren't that high. Sigh.

What I really need to get now, means practical shoes, are warm boots and rain boots. And a warm bathrobe.
