Sensible shoes ?

[TheOtherHalf]

I always wear `sensible shoes` for work, for walking for gym etc. Only wear fashion shoes if going out (which isnt very often) but on my way to work this morning, even though its frosty, I saw a woman in high heels, a big woman overspilling in ballerina type shoes with no socks, and a man wearing open sandals. If I were to wear anything but `sensible shoes` for half an hour, I would be hobbling around for ther rest of the day and my feet would probably suffer for a day or two

There is a woman living opposite me who wears shorts and strappy t-shirts all year round, in winter she will put on a scarf when she goes out on her bike!

LOL Anne.

We used to go out in Stilletos in the snow in the 60's. How suitable.

Nowadys, I own quite a few pairs of boots and live in them!!

Think you're right LL. Did a late stint outside a couple of nightclubs with the Samaritans. I was absolutely frozen, but these young lads and lassies came in their droves, hardly a coat between them, lassies tottering on 5" heels and very short skirts/dresses and the lads with short sleeved shirts on. Maybe the alcohol kept them warm?

LL, you are right i expect, don't remember much about the 70's, it went by in a flash of partying, clubs, blokes, and great music. I wore a velvet purple hot pant suit, very classy i must say, or not...

I don't see anything unsensible about open sandals - not great at this time of year if you feel the cold, but fine if you don't. Presumably they don't do it if, like you, half an hour cripples them; but otherwise, they probably know their own feet better than you do?

em - You and I were obviously birds of a feather. Great, fun time and I made the most of it. (I had a black satin hotpant jump suit!!! - ha, ha) Suede hotpants to work and long kinky boots!!

You should see me now :o(

[anneasquith]

ll, i bet you still have/wear the long kinky boots " on occasion " :)

[LoftyLottie]

Boots, yes - kinky, hardly!

I do wear fashionable boots though!!

[emmie]

long white boots, with black crushed velvet hot pants, and a frilly blouse, the sort the new romantics wore, like adam ant, duran duran, heady days.

[tinkerbell23]

In the snow i had my uggs/military boots/ wellies

But if i was going out id hav heels on no matter what. So probs not sensible however fashionable.

Known to not wear a jacket at weekends alot and ALWAYS in a mini skirt LOL

I am one of those non sensible folk but i admit it!

The minute i can get my flip flops on i wil i LOVE em xx
