Fashion vs. Comfort I
When it comes to
high heel shoes, I always have to make
the choice between being comfortable or being beautiful. Most of the time, my
decision leans towards looking cute and fashionable. Last week, my boyfriend
and I went out for dinner. Like every woman, I like men’s attention, and I
think that high-heeled shoes are a sure way to get it. When I put the heels
on, I received multiple compliments from
my boyfriend. However, I must admit that they were pretty challenging to walk
down the stairs in. What was even more challenging was trying to keep up with
my boyfriend's fast-paced walk, him being from New York. After dinner was over,
we decided that we would head to the club to meet our friends. At that very
moment, I thought to myself “I wish I were in flats..." Needless to say, I
didn't have any flats with me. Even if I did, they wouldn't fit into my tiny
purse anyway. So we eventually got to
the club, with my hard-to-walk-in heels and had a great time. We met with our friends, had couple cocktails
and, of course, danced. The next
morning, my feet were killing me. I was too embarrassed to tell my boyfriend,
but I could barely walk. However, I felt
great about myself in my heels the night before so I feel like it was totally
worth it! I currently work as a patient liaison at a hospital and the dress
code is business casual. Therefore, I
have the choice of wearing flats or heels.
Regardless of how painful they can get I always choose to wear heels for
the following reasons. First, my suits always look so much better with a pair
of heels. Second, wearing heels gives me a height advantage, especially since I
am 5ft 2. Lastly, I look at wearing heels as my daily workout! So if you ask me
if I would choose fashion over comfort, the answer will always be fashion!
