If you were average looking people would be less likely to notice. But, you have to remember that most people don't think - they just stare and don't stop to consider how you might feel. My brother is currently wearing an eye patch on one eye due to a detached retina and several operations - he said everywhere he goes people stare at him. People can be very insensitive. <br /><br />I too have a major problem with trying to get shoes but it's because my feet are incredibly narrow. I always understand how you feel when you talk about wanting to wear stilettos or something strappy and sexy. I'm the same - can't buy anything to fit my feet. I believe that over in the States you can buy AA and AAA shoes straight off the rack. Here in Sydney there's only one shop that stocks special fittings for narrow feet and they're so incredibly expensive. I wouldn't mind paying the price if they looked hot but they're all granny shoes so I just don't even bother anymore. Occasionally I'm lucky and find a style that's a very narrow fit but it's rare. I think that's probably part of why we have such a shoe fetish - because we know we can't wear every style we want!<br /><br />I love reading your blog - if I ever become rich I want to employ you as my stylist. <br /><br />I will eventually get around to setting myself up on here so I'm not just anonymous!<br /> <br />CheersAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22009816.post-45287109597207395822009-04-21T21:57:00.000-07:002009-04-21T21:57:00.000-07:00oh dear did i miss a contest?! well congrats to th...oh dear did i miss a contest?! well congrats to the winners.. and you look amazing!! as always!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18330724535484021347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22009816.post-50707108341163881432009-04-21T21:09:00.000-07:002009-04-21T21:09:00.000-07:00Thanks guys - the truth is what I WANT is to not w...Thanks guys - the truth is what I WANT is to not wear tights and boots all summer, I want to wear what I feel like it.<br /><br />Sure some days I'll be less confident than others and on those days I'll chuck on boots or gladiators (though not tights - too hot!) but I just want to get past my hangups and as Vegas Princess has suggested, let other people be damned!Wanderlustinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05997835666384194750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22009816.post-37359876115097836822009-04-21T20:47:00.000-07:002009-04-21T20:47:00.000-07:00I think you should wear what YOU want and let othe...I think you should wear what YOU want and let other people be damned. You don't have to answer people's questions if you don't want to. If wedges make you feel good, wear them!

And, ...Those shoes are super cute. I love wedges!!<br /><br />And, I agree with Erica, if you're not comfortable in it then it won't look good.

Like that girl on ANTM, same story, scarred her whole body when she poured boiling water on herself when she was wee. And now she's on the show, trying to conquer her insecurities!Wanderlustinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05997835666384194750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22009816.post-86786921698873146242009-04-21T16:56:00.000-07:002009-04-21T16:56:00.000-07:00So I'm gonna preach lol.

She's also got her on her neck area. Skin graphs didn't help her, so her arm is kinda mangled (I don't think there's anything ugly or wrong with it). She's had a lot of bad feedback from strangers about it, still gets it most of the time. <br /><br />She's still self conscious about it, but has recently accepted it, and wears it like a badge these days (she's 32 this year). She use to wear long sleeved tops all the time, now she's going sleeveless and giving the big finger to anybody who has a problem with it. <br /><br />One day, I'm sure you'll make peace with your scars, like my sister, but until then, whilst you can't wear some of the things you want, you still have some uber awesome shoes and clothes combos that make you look super hot! <br /><br />It'll take time to accept those scars, but I'm sure it'll happen. <br />I guess you just have to learn to love them yourself, and truly accept that they're not going anywhere, that they're a major part of who you are, past and present, and fuck anybody else who has a problem with this. Scars are milestones, you need to turn the negative on it's head and make them a positive.<br /><br />People that judge others on things like this, don't deserve the time we waste on them, by worrying or feeling bad. So fuck 'em Karina, you rock, and so do your scarred up, micro feet.<br /><br />And so do those shoes.

I personally have HORRIBLE feet. I actually need surgery because of it. I have a heel spur on my left foot that makes wearing flats extremely painful, and I have low arches that make wearing heels painful. Sometimes I just wish I could walk around barefoot :D<br /><br /><br />And I'm sure your scars aren't that bad! Most people don't look that close anyways :D (although if you want to help them heal, vitamin E oil works WONDERS)PinkFleurettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07931652778294035830noreply@blogger.com
