Daily Prompt: These Boots Were Made For Walking

Tell us about your favourite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you.

Photographers, artists, poets: show us WALK.

I am female!  I don’t really have ‘a’ favourite pair of shoes, I have several favourite pairs.

I have a wardrobe choc-full of Dr Martens shoes and boots.  Not the mod boots, you understand.  The ladylike ones, with heels, and proper style.  They were all bought for me because the only pair of shoes I had at the time were getting a bit sloppy and difficult to walk in.  But they had taken me for miles and miles.  Nowhere special, or in particular, just everywhere.  They are still in my wardrobe.  They are still wearable but the need is no longer there.

I have a couple of pairs of Skechers trainers, one traditional, the other – a Mary Jane style.  These things rock.  Literally.  I bought them because I wanted something sensible to walk in.  My friend likes to take me to Blackpool and we’d had times where we’d walked an estimated six miles.  That’s quite a task in 3” heels when you’re as heavy as me, and not used to wearing heels.  I love those boots but my ankles paid a heavy price the next day!  As did my back.  But it was a good time… candy floss on a rain-lashed beach – but that’s a whole other story.

My other favourites are my flip flops and my slippers, more for comfort around the house than anything.

I am going to keep this a little short today as I have migraine lights buzzing in my right eye and I can’t see or think straight, so forgive me if this didn’t make any coherent sense or there are spelling, grammar or punctuation errors.
