Bad Habits Lead to Great Closets

I like to think of myself as an independent woman;  I do however, have issues regarding having control over my shoe purchasing habit.  Shopping in general makes me very happy, whether it’s retail therapy or just treating myself to something special, but shoes, shoes, never care what I look like; hence my love affair with them.  I think it’s time for me to face my addiction head on and finally end my long-term, ever so fashionable, not counting evolving, relationship with my round toed pumps, and declare myself independent of my shoe infatuation.  This is a matter of urgent care and needs to proceed with caution, for the situation is a very delicate one indeed.  My bond with foot fashions has in ways prevented me from accomplishing tasks such as:

• If ever I was feeling down or unsatisfied, I shopped for shoes, making myself emotionally unavailable and allowing my shoes to fill that void
• My shoe collection has become extensive, making it difficult to make decisions on what pair to wear in efforts to try to let them all out on the town equally
• I gain attachment to certain heels, and if or when they get damaged, I get sad, and I’ve heard that’s unhealthy
• My addiction has caused select loved ones and strangers to think I am materialistic because I believe in wearing certain shoes on certain terrain and for specific occasions

My solution to this fragile problem is to simply resolve it.  It is well past time to stop letting this toxic relationship control me;  a self-respecting businesswoman to be would not have this set back, and it is time for me to model who I want to be.  After I regain control, I will be better equipped for the choices and opportunities that life brings my way.

Okay….what am I writing? If I want to “model” who I want to be, then high heel shoes are a MUST! Duh! How else am I supposed to model, with Birkenstocks, Crocs (Shout out to Naomi Campbell, only the truly fashion forward know about her disdain for “Lazy Shoes”), Docks, or any of the like…(sorry if you’re offended though, true shit!!)? Ummm…Nah. Let me be clear on my stance, “The higher the heel, the closer to the top,” IDC. IDC. IDC.!!!!
