4-inch Boots and Cobblestones Do Not Go Together



You know, when you watch movies and see pictures, cobblestones truly have a romantic feel to them. I always thought that. They give a street more character and make them so much more enticing to walk on. I am grateful to have them everywhere and to be able to see them from my balcony but reality likes to smack me in the face again.

Yesterday, I excitedly put on my 4-inch boots and am ready to take them out on the town in beautiful boot season weather and the minute I step out the door, bam, I gracefully sprain my ankle on the cobblestone. Seriously? Ironically, I was more upset about scuffing up my boot than spraining my ankle. The ankle will heal but how am I suppose to touch up camel-colored boots???

Props to all the beautiful, sexy and skilled Italian women who manage to sport heels without being a clutz like me....sigh... This is the time you chime in with one of your clumsy mishaps to make me feel better. =)

P.S. I still heart high heels.... ;)

  2. Of course you can still bring them! After all, it is part of the Italian experience. I'm sure you won't be a clutz like me. =) Fashion First!
