Have you ever found a pair of shoes that you absolutely fall in love with? I found my pair! So for months now I’ve been looking for a pair of combat boots that don’t make me feel like a man and decided that the best solution to this was to find a pair that were high heels.  I don’t know what’s wrong with my feet, but every pair of combat boots that I’ve tried on make my feet look huge and I just don’t look cute at all.  A few weeks ago I decided to buy a pair and now I can’t take them off my feet.  I wear them everywhere and I know all the abuse is going to take its toll on them eventually.  I was talking to my sister about finding “solemates” and realized I had to buy another pair.  So I bought another pair today, well actually, I bought two. I know, I know! It sounds terrible having three pairs of the same exact shoe but I swear, if I don’t buy them now I’m going to be devastated when the time comes that I have to buy another pair only to find out they aren’t being made anymore.

But yes, I love these shoes.  Whenever I work weddings I tend to wear a lower heel since I’m on my feet all day.  Sacrificing fashion for function is something that I’m irritated by, especially with shoes. My sister pretty much put it in perspective for me.  You either get a cute shoe that’s not comfortable at all or a comfy shoe that’s not the most attractive thing in the world.  Now I don’t have to sacrifice one for the other! I wore these bad boys for 12 hours and was absolutely fine, even with the heel being about five inches tall :D It probably helps that there’s a platform that lowers the arch for me but still I cannot get over these shoes.  I think it’s comparable to the feeling you get when you’re first starting relationship and everything is right in the world.  Don’t judge me people, it’s the closest thing I can compare it to! I’m sure you’ve all run into that shoe.  The shoe that, when you try on for the first time, makes you feel like Cinderella.  And yes, I did just write an entire post about the shoe of my life.

So let me know if you’ve ever found your solemate.  Wasn’t it amazing when you found them?  And send me pictures, I want to see!

Yes, I have two pairs in black.

They make me feel fabulous.
