There is something so tactile and emotional about choosing and buying new shoes. I have small feet but they are very painful - a combination of extremely weak ligaments due to injury and debilitating plantar fasciiitis. So I look longingly at the pretty pumps and sandals, knowing I cannot possibly wear them comfortably for more the twenty minutes, and I certainly couldn't walk any distance in them! I hadn't intended to buy new shoes yesterday, and I actually went into the shoe shop to try on some sensible Ecco trainers. They were horrible, with no support for my floppy ligaments. And then I saw these. These things of beauty. These beautiful purple Fitflops. I have found that Fitslops are perfect for all my foot problems. I can't really say they do anything for my bum shape, but I can wear them all day. Yeah for warm weather, yeah for purple Fitflops. You're Beautiful!

I'm linking up this You're Beautiful post with the busy, capable, funny, talented Jenny at Cheetahs in my Shoes. Please do go and have a look the other blogs linking up this week. (I'm sorry, but I still can't get the badge to work...I will keep trying!)
