The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

September is a month of reflection and renewal. It is the month when we put our summer behind us and start looking forward to…..Cold weather, Christmas? No.  Structured and beautiful Shoes and Boots.



 I look forward to this time of the year, to show off my best assets. My shoes.  Prior to my surgery way back in August; I had neatly and diligently put away my summer shoe ensemble. (I sheepishly kept a few “lefts” for the remainder of the weeks, just in case).The sweet strappies, the perfect sandals, the pretty ballet flats, the corporate stiletto peek-a-boo (also a Fall transition), the patio espadrille wedge, I could go on. There was no point in keeping them around as I would not have the opportunity to wear them again; this year.

Alas the fall shoe assemblage is one force not to be reckoned with for a woman or your standard homo/metro-sexual. However as I view my fall and winter ensemble of shoes and boots, I’m not inspired by what is to come. I may have to repeat my summer chore and burrow my fall/winter shoe and boot collection as well. It just doesn’t seem feasible as I look at my heavily casted right foot, that my left foot will be able to function solo with a high black Jimmy Choo boot  and ultra-pointy toe, this season. There is something odd about that visual.  

 Not to mention my dozens upon dozens upon dozens (how many dozens was that again?) of lonely shoes and boots that will not have their time to shine. UGGs? Pshaw!  I realize that potentially UGGs may be the only type of footwear I will be able to display on my foot/feet.  It’s not that I don’t find them comfortable and generally stylish with let’s say… jogging pants on your way to the supermarket; any fashion combination other than that-not liken’ them so much!

 I have been haphazardly brainstorming about my potential (and yes truly exciting) return to work in the distant future. UGG’s might not cut it in the office.  Hmmm…although… my other truly unfashionable dismal prospect is the walking air cast that I will have to use to learn how to “walk” again. Totally Lovely.  It’s settled.

 Do you have one size 8 in Black?
