cool shoes

Caution: This might be a lame post. But I looked at the shoes I was wearning tonight and wanted to write about them.






Call me crazy, but I've always thought that Dansko clogs were cute and desperately wanted them to work for me. Seriously, about 3/4 of the staff at Children's wear them and swear by them. I've always loved clogs, I think I should live in the northeast or Colorado or someplace where people eat granola and wear long skirts or something so that I could wear them more often and not look so "nursey".


I've owned 3 different pairs of these shoes but could never seem to make them work. And I was so sad. I REALLY wanted them to work for me. But the soles were just so hard...I need soft soles.


But I kept hearing "try one more pair, try ones with a back."


And I really wanted them to work for me.


So, I found a great deal on E-Bay and got a pair of very gently used black Danskos with a back....and I do love them!

So if you are discouraged with your previous Dansko experience, try ones with a back.

You should spice it up a little and order them in red...

Marisa,
I have 2 pair of these shoes -- one in black and one pair in brown new buck and I love them too -- and I'm not even a nurse!!!

I have a hard time wearing them here in Ajijic cause the soles are stiff and the cobblestones are not very flexible -- so I save them for when I know I'll be walking on pavement or have more solid footing.

Glad you found some that you like!

Keep on blogging! I love to hear about what's happening in your life. Love ya, D
