..so, the fashion whore in me decided to wear my brand new, 5" stilettos to work today. Feeling good about my choice, my boss comes into my office and says, "you know, they have a name for those type of shoes?" I replied, "and that is?" the next three words spit from her mouth like a bug running from a shoe..." F@ck me pumps!" she said. My confidence instantly shrunk to a midget size height as her words rang in my head. As I sat in disbelief, my mind begin to wonder... Is there some truth to the ignorance that flowed so freely from her mouth or do we as females have it all wrong when it comes to style and fashion in the work place?
In my mind, I was juggling three balls on that comment.
Ball 1: My intial reaction was to question the comment "f@ck me pumps" and ask why she would think my shoes resemble a pair of cheap, patent leather, no names- that pamela Anderson's may have thrown in her closet some where?
Ball 2: Bring some clarification to the difference between "f@ck me pumps" and that of which looked so perfect on my size 8's.
Ball 3: or expose the truth and explain how they are a prop to tonights show... Hehe!
All and all, ignorance is bliss. Fashion comes in all shapes and sizes. Should one judge a person by the style of her shoe or by the way she wears it? Sounds stupid right?!?! Just think how I felt when she said it.
