Shoe Possession

Today I'm cozy in a soft, warm flannel men's button down.  My feet are super cozy as well...in a mustard flat loafer that is a full size too small.  What in the world possessed me to buy these shoes?  My husband says it's the "shopping demon".  He may be right.  I tried them on in the store and convinced myself they would be fine...that I really needed these cute size 7 mustard flats and they felt perfectly wearable on my size 8 foot.  
Scene 2:  I put them on at home to wear for the first time with today's outfit and OMG! they have my feet squished in like a Geisha.
When will I learn? sigh

  1. I purchased a pair of shoe stretchers that work on my shoes when they are a little snug. I don't know anything that works to enlarge shoes a full size. Good luck. They are cute shoes!

  2. Well I can see why you lost your head over those awesome shoes! I LOVE LOVE LOVE them. Good thing you didn't spend much though. At least there's that. ;) I hope you find something to replace them, they're great!

  4. There's nothing I like better on a cool day than a flannel shirt. As for the shoes, I've found myself lately thinking that my foot has grown a half size or I'm becoming less tolerant of shoes that pinch. I like Judy's idea about the shoe stretcher.

  5. Agreeing with everyone else - flannel shirts for the win. My favorite was a blue men's shirt. It finally bit the dust I think. I used to sleep in it during the winter.

    Sorry about the shoes! The same thing happens to me and jeans. It's like I'm three sizes all at once.
