I am back with the shoe addiction. This time tackling dress shoes.

Everyone's shoes tell a story: Dress shoe edition

Yes, I am back with the shoe stories. This time I'm going to shift my focus onto dress shoes. I am a sneaker person myself but I have a lot of dress shoes as well. I just have too many pairs of shoes.

Anyways, let's dive into the article.

The "No my ankles are fine" look.

I think girls will relate to this more (actually I think to all of these) however, this situation I have been in often. I usually don't wear high heels but when I do, I sometimes shoot my shot a little too high and end up hurting my ankles quite a lot. Nevertheless, I give myself the confidence that I can wear them and then an hour later I am taking them off in agony.

The story these tell is: I can walk. I can walk. Yeah, see I can walk I promise. Oh? Stairs? No No! I can totally go up the stairs.

The "These are nice..." look

This goes hand in hand with the sneakers and how you really don't know a shoe looks bad until you wear it for a while and you realize it's absolutely awful. This happened to me my Junior year homecoming when the shoes I bought looked so bad with my dress that I decided to ditch them and wear the shoes I am supposed to wear for choir. (Aso nothing against the shoes in the picture that's what came up when I typed ugly high heels)

The story these tell is: It was last minute, I wasn't thinking but here I am not knowing what else to do. Maybe I could sell them?

The "These are my occasion shoes only" look.

You wear these shoes only on occasions such as birthdays or dinners. I personally have a pair of fancy shoes dedicated to this. I was so sad when these shoes stopped fitting me but I still have them and have not given them away. I just can't bear the thought.

The story these shoes tell is: I am here for only purpose: to flaunt my shoes.

The "I don't wear heels" look.

I've said this sentence many times to my mom while out buying shoes. Sometimes, you just don't feel like wearing high heels and I personally think that's great. I have a lot of cute flats and dress shoes that I tie up like sneakers and they are my favorite thing to wear when I just don't feel like making my ankles suffer.

The story these tell is: Beauty isn't pain. I can be comfy and classy without wearing heels. Let me live my life.

The "I can suffer just this once" look.

This usually happens to me when I have to wear a pair of shoes that aren't comfy, nor do they fit well. I usually suffer for the occasion and after, don't wear a pair of heels for another six months. I can guarantee that a lot of women out there relate to this. Sometimes, the shoe is just too good to pass up even if it doesn't fit.

The story these tell is: I am only here for this one night and this one night only so you better notice how much effort I put into wearing these.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
