8: Brown strappy cork heels

Brown Strappy Cork Sandals

Heels: 4inches

Purchased at: Aldo

I got these shoes 3 years ago and I still love them as much as I did when I first bought them.  I went shopping with my mom for some new shoes to go with a dress that I bought for my cousin’s wedding…and I LOVED these.  They cost me somewhere between $60-$90 I have no idea how much.  I lasted all day at work in these shoes so they are pretty comfortable–maybe because I’ve broken them in after so long.

You can’t really see it in the picture but on my left foot there’s about an inch long scratch on the cork–why?  Because one night when I was walking to another bar with my friend Tommy my foot just sunk right into a sidewalk grate–Tommy was totally oblivious to the fact that I was literally stuck into the sidewalk so he just kept on walking.  I ended up having to yell at him to make him wait for me. This is how it went down.

Me: boom, stuck

Me: Tommy, wait up for me!

Tommy: What, what are you doing?

Me: My foot is stuck–literally.

Tommy: WHAT?

Me: My heel got stuck in the grate

Tommy: Well yank it out!

Me: No, these are new, and cork–I can’t just YANK–they will get scratched!

Tommy: Um, Bunny are you fucken serious?

Me: YES I AM SERIOUS

Tommy: Well, I’m not staying here all night

And then YANK he just grabbed my ankle and ripped my shoe out of the grate.  I, of course was totally devastated about the stratch and made Tommy buy me a beer to make up for the damage to my shoe.
