A shoe rant!

Ok, I am a shoe girl. Your clothes size may change, but you could always count on wearing the same size shoes. Shoes can make or break an outfit in my eyes. So, with this in mind I was excited to go shoe shopping to buy shoes for two dresses I am wearing to a wedding and rehearsal dinner.

Imagine my disappointment when looking at shoes in two different states and online that I could only fine one pair. Why do shoe designers think that every fashionable woman can, or wants, to wear 4 inch heels. Every patterned, or colored shoe other than nude, black or blue are 4 inch heels or higher. I am a middle aged woman that gave up high heels years ago. I prefer a kitten heel of about 1 to 2 inches.  They just do not exist in a cool looking shoe. Why can't I find these shoes in a lower heel?





So, the moral of this rant is that I not only have to contend with trying to find clothes to fit a body with curves from stores that are full of clothes that are made for women that are straight up and down like a 14 year old boy. But, I now have to wear boring shoes because the same women that are shaped like 14 year old boys like to wear beautiful shoes with 4 or 5 inch heels.  

It seems to me that there are far more women like me that have money to spend on fashionable shoes and cannot do so, because all the designers are making shoes for 14 year old boy bodied woman in stilettos. #SoSad
