Spiky highs

High Heels.

Constantly a source of fascination to me – not possibly in the same way as men I might just add! They do make your legs look incredibly elegant… However I do have a hard time walking in them and all effect is lost when you are clunking along in them. I am certainly not alone as the internet has video’s on how to tip-toe about. Amazingly they have been around for about 400 years. Although, beginning life with  slightly more practical intent – keeping your feet in the stirrups when horse riding no less.

I have this weekend noticed a high proportion of women tottering about on impossibly high heels often associated with impossibly short skirts and impossibly low cut tops. London is not a city kind to feet. Hours on the pavement, stairs in the underground, puddles of water to be lept.

So yet again my campers boots leave me feeling profoundly sensible, although probably warmer than those with the impossibly high heels spotted this weekend.
