Dress Me Up Dollie

I was already committed to this dress before I realized how wildly inappropriate for work it is.  I suppose this is the good thing about working in an office with no dress code.  I tried to make it as matronly as possible, but in the end, it was a really short dress.  Oh well, I suppose.

I like these shoes a lot.  They're not my most comfortable pair of heels (thus far, that award is still with my Madden Girls) but they have a solid heel.  I hate that a lot of my stilletos have heels that wobble around when I walk.  There's a good chance they didn't do that when I bought them and they only started doing that because I walk on them the wrong way, but still...it sucks!

I wore this to my first day at the new office.  Still love this shirt, it flows very nicely.

The shoes I bought for Megan's wedding.  Unlike my Alfanis, I didn't wear them for the ceremony (obviously, because you can only wear one pair of shoes at a time), but I did for the rehursal.  Much fun.

Following the intense discomfort of yesterday's shoes, I was reticent to wear heels again today.  Especially given that I'm working and 11 hour day today and it involves some walking.  However, thinking realistically, I own way more heels than flats and if I don't want to get stuck wearing heels for a week straight at the end of this challenge, I need to space out my flats.  So last night, I went to the store and got a set of insoles for heels that are supposed to shift your weight off the balls of your feel. I'm not sure if I believe that some squishy plastic can do that, but my feet are much more comfortable today.  That may also be because there are better quality shoes.  I hadn't worn them in about a year, but I remember these being comfortable(ish) even when I wasn't big on wearing heels.  So I'm hoping today goes better than yesterday and my volunteer event (that's why I'm working so long today) goes off well.

I'm not usually one for a mostly black outfit, but I really wanted to maintain focus on these shoes today.  Look at them.  They're fabulous!  A roommate of mine once said that they looked like I'd been walking through a field of blue gems with glue on my boots.  She meant in in an insulting way, but I still think of it as a compliment.  Haha.  Who wouldn't want to walk through a field of blue gems?  I adore the look of these shoes, but oh man they're riduculously uncomfortable.  The 3 block walk from my house to the bus stop this morning just about killed me.  For some reason the 10 blocks from the bus to my office weren't as bad, but it's not even lunch yet and I'm dreading all the walking I have to do on my commute home.  Maybe these ridiculous shoes and I just weren't meant to be together.  Or maybe I should keep a pair of flats in my backpack for the walk!  Hmm.
