The Obnoxious Childhood Shoes

Sunday 10 August 2014

So here’s the 3rd and I think final installment in my failure of an Edinburgh shopping haul. It is another shoe post but I literally could not resist these shoes. They were the first things I laid my eyes on when I stepped into Office and my inner 5 year old was drooling incessantly.


Lately I’ve been reverting back to the style I had as a kid but in a more grown up way. When I was a little human I would run around in the weirdest of outfits and didn’t even notice any of the stares I was probably getting. I guess I’ve been wanting to get back to my more flamboyant ways and the best way to start doing that is to rock shoes that earn some odd looks and, at one point a full on “what the hell?”.


These shoes would’ve been something I would’ve longed for as a kid so I’ve made my inner child happy by purchasing them. They’re incredibly eye-catching - I think that really goes without saying- and are practically blinding when the sun bounces off of them. I love pairing them with my regular old boring outfits as they’re so obnoxious they do more than add their fair share of fun.


I have worn them to work (they’re probably not everyone’s idea of appropriate working attire) so I can say they are extremely comfortable to wear for 7 hours straight. I have noticed that I twist my ankle a fair bit in them and honestly, I have absolutely no idea how that’s happening. They should be the easiest heels I own to walk in but there is something about them that just makes me destroy my ankles. If I concentrate I can walk fine in them but who on earth wants to concentrate on walking? I’d rather spend my walking time thinking about mine and Eminem’s wedding. Erm, moving on…


It’s probably rather sad how happy I was when I spotted these shoes in Office but they’re a grown up childhood shoe to me. Perhaps these shoes are making me a bit nostalgic but hey, they’re a million times better than jelly shoes. Now if you don’t mind I’m going to put these shoes on and dance around to B’Witched. Toodles.
