I have seen a lovely, black, shiny pair of Docs I keep promising myself I'll buy when I am rich.I have three or four pairs of heels in there, including one pair I actually cannot walk in as they're too high; look amazing, can't do more than shuffle, in pain :(
They would certainly make my parents run for the hills...

No wonder you want infinite squibbleys!For that is the path to being able to afford DMs.
If you thought shuffling in high-heels is torture, be glad you didn't have to endure foot binding.

Exactly :( they're £75!I've read lots of books about foot-binding and my god, it sounds like pure agony. Can't remember what the last one I read was but I know it made me cradle my feet and promise them this would never happen to them!

.Foot binding is quite possibly the worst thing anyone had to do in the pursuit of perceived beauty. And to think this went on for 1000 years.

It makes shaving off 99% of your body hairand wearing coloured pigments seem more normal, that's for sure!
