I admit it. I like to pamper myself. I get a manicure and pedicure every two weeks. I love this time of year because I actually get to "expose" my lovely toes after a pedicure. I have a lot of adorable open-toed shoes that I like to wear with one of my many sassy outfits :)
As a member of the Faux Paux Sisterhood, I pledge to follow The Rules when I
wear sandals and other open-toe shoes:
* I promise to always wear sandals that fit. My toes will not hang over and touch the ground, nor will my heels spill over the backs. And the sides and tops of my feet will not pudge out between the straps.
* I will go polish-free or vow to keep the polish fresh, intact and chip-free. I will not cheat and just touch up my big toe.
* I will sand down any mounds of skin before they turn hard and yellow.
* I will shave the hairs off my big toe.
* I won't wear pantyhose even if my misinformed girlfriend, coworker, mother, or sister tells me the toe seam really will stay under my toes if I tuck it there.
* If a strap breaks, I won't duct-tape, pin, glue or tuck it back into place hoping it will stay put. I will get my shoe fixed or toss it.
* I will not live in corn denial; rather I will lean on my good friend Dr. Scholl's if my feet need him.
* I will take my toe ring off toward the end of the day if my toes swell and begin to look like Vienna sausages.
* I will promise if I wear flip flops, that I will ensure they actually flip and flop, making the correct noise while walking and I will swear NOT to slide or drag my feet while wearing them.
* I will promise to throw away any white/off-white sandals that show signs of wear...nothing is tackier than dirty white sandals.
