Literally head over heels
I did an experiment on Thursday.
Hypothesis: Making it through a day (commute included) in heels is a good idea.
Conclusion: Um, no.
I was rocking the look until I stepped off the crosstown bus at the end of the day. I missed a step and ended up twisting my ankle and banging up my knees. Ouch.
So what’s a girl to do? Buy more cute flats (and refrain from wearing high shoes while using public transportation). Here are some top picks for spring:

I love some of those flats! They are adorable! Hope you didn't get too hurt when you fell...don't be a slave to fashion anymore!
That was a funny story, but I'm sorry you hurt yourself! Thanks for the fashion advice on buying stylish, yet comfortable shoes for the spring. I have major foot problems, so this helps!!
Thanks!!!!! Take care of your injuries!!!
