A Truckload of Shoes

Well, even though I hate my skinny, size 11 feet with giant 'finger toes' I can still appreciate a fine pair of shoes. I also sure as heck would like to win $2000 worth of shoes! Well, all prayers have been answered by StyleTread! You can enter the competition here, although I would prefer you leave me with a better chance of winning! Hehe.

I would like to win a truckload of shoes as I need a kick up the butt in terms of my shoe collection. With my 'difficult' feet I tend to shy away from shoe shopping and, if I buy anything at all, it is always the same flat, lace up shoes! So much so, I even chose these as my wedding shoes for my wedding in 4 weeks' time! I am also recovering from torn ligaments in my ankle so I have been off heels for a while now and I need to get back into wearing them and some shiny new ones would be the perfect encouragement to get my ankle strength back up.

I have been browsing the StyleTread site for some time now and I have decided my favourite pair if shoes would have to be these beauties! Hopefully my feet would squeeze into the 10.5! Anything with stripes or polka dots has me sold!
