On Today this morning, there was a bizarre interview about shoes & high heels which lost me completely. Coincidentally was in shoe shop yesterday looking for something comfortable/affordable and with laces that don’t fall apart with the first tug, and did learn yesterday that proper mocassins can only come with leather, not plastic or rubber soles; something about the way proper mocassins are made apparently.Not an entirely wasted trip then. Today I’m wearing an old pair which will have to do for a bit longer given the crazy prices.

I am now at the stage where a shoe has become the most important piece of clothing, and rather than fussing about the state of the world or what I’m going to have for dinner tonight, wondered what others feel about shoes and your favourite shoes. Mine are a pair of Church’s brogues which I give an airing to infrequently but they fit so perfectly they are a joy to wear. I was given a very gentle AW kicking for declaring my love for these brogues a while back, but what the hell.

Here’s what Nancy has to say…
