I was thinking about this little statement and I wondered what it would be like if I literally did have to live in a single pair of shoes for the rest of my life. There was one pair of shoes that came to my mind straight away. I thought of the shoes in the picture to the right. They are a simple black wedge with a peep-toe and a lace up the front. There isn't anything particularly exciting about them visually, but they hold so much meaning to me.
Most of my shoes have not been worn by other people, but I like to share these shoes. There is something about them that makes me feel comfortable about lending them to others, like I can trust the shoes to not break or get damaged or discolour.
I have had them for years. I have worm them on such occasions as weddings, parties and dinners. I like to think of them as my 'celebration shoes' - not a bad night has come from me wearing these shoes.
I would love to wear these shoes for the rest of my life because then I would know for sure that I would always have something to celebrate.
Julia wore them the other night and she really did look beautiful in them. They finished off her outfit perfectly. I was proud of my shoes - they had done me proud on so many occasions and they were now pleasing others.
I will always love these shoes. I love their simplicity and I love their comfort.
Thank you for beautiful nights and thank you for always celebrating with me.
