Why I'll Never Be A Supermodel!
Well, ONE of the reasons I'll never be a Supermodel is because of my choice in footwear. I have spent the last 15 years of my life wearing Converse. No heels, no sling backs, no frilly sandals...just my sneakers.
Funny thing is I like the concept of having lots of shoes and I envy women who can wear 3 inch heels and walk like Marilyn Monroe. I on the other hand walk like a drunken elephant in heels. The last time I did wear a pair of pumps I took a major nose dive at a wedding. Not my finest moment!
I personally attribute my problem to the fact that I'm 5' 11". I think it's simple physics. I have big size 10 feet and I think that it's harder to balance for us large footed girls. There's more surface area to fall off of. It seems that short people with tiny feet can run around like the Energizer Bunny on Wheels...or heels. As for the Amazonian Supermodels that wear heels...well they either have tiny feet or they lie like the wind and only wear their super shoes on photo shoots and in public. Maybe that's why they have "people"...their "people" hold them up so they don't fall off their very stylish 4 inch Manolo Blahnik shoes.
As for me I'll stick to my very low, very stylish and very comfortable Converse...thank you very much!
I don't want to imagine what would happen if I tried to walk around in heels. I like New Balance shoes because they are comfy and have a pair of imitation converse.
