Big shoes to fill
Most of the time it's nice being the tallest female Wellingtonista (Martha and Natalie may get the column inches but I gots the height inches), but the trouble with being tall is that I need great big plates of meat as feet to support me. And you know what they say about girls with big feet - they need big shoes.
That's why I'm so excited that Willow Shoes - a website I've been shopping from for years since they specialise in shoes size 10 and up - has just opened up a branch in Wellington, in my neighbourhood even, at 27 C Waitoa Road in Hataitai. This is going to be especially handy (or err footy, badoom chish) now that Minx Shoes have moved their factory outlet from Waikanae to Otaki.
Hahaha that makes you sound like Laura Ingalls. Or perhaps Anne of Green Gables's best friend Diana. Either way, that's rad.
isn't this timely?! :)
last night i was looking at websites for shoes in nz, because i'm moving to welly soon! since i can't bring all my shoes along, and decided to get ones there, this entry was just timely :)
thanks! i love this blog!
Ha!
I worked once with a very lovely woman who couldn't say "short". She was talking about a bride she was working for and she said "she is like you Martha, not tall and willowy". I've thought of myself as not tall and willowy ever since.
