I think that womens shoes are getting ridiculous these days. The heels are getting really high ad narrow. I like wearing a bit of a heel as I do think that they flatter my figure, but they do tend to give me a back ache. This means that I tend to only wear them when I wear formal dresses and I am going to an occasion where I need to look really smart. The problem is that I tend to get used to wearing flat shoes which are wider, such as trainers or boots and then when I have to go back to wearing them again, they feel quite awkward. I am sure that my feet are getting wider or shoes are getting narrower. I find it interesting that when I used to wear teen clothing I would normally wear trainers or flat pumps but nowadays teenagers are wearing heels. It is a shame that they are likely to cause a lot of problems with their backs as they get older as well as putting themselves at risk from broken ankles and things like that. I suppose at that age you do not really care – I am sure that I would not have either.
