Forever Changed II

Glass Women's Dress Shoes

Several years after the accident, after the clunky orthopedic shoes, after the different variations of protecting my ankle from harm, and after years of wearing slacks, I wanted to go out in a pair of shoes that could be worn with a skirt.

I found these slip-on black shoes. Not a dressy shoe, but somewhat removed from a shoe that implied what? Age? Disability? YES to both! I was able to wear these without a brace to stabilize my ankle.

These shoes went a long way to make me feel more comfortable going out with friends and getting, sort of, dressed up! They went a long way to stop the questions of ‘oh dear, what did you do to your ankle?’
