High Heels in the Height of Winter???

Trudging through campus in snow boots, I curiously watch those who wear high heels during the winter (along with every other season). I don't quite understand their need or desire to delicately tiptoe across the ice at the risk of falling or twisting an ankle. Don't these women mind getting cold feet and wet socks? Is it now a fashion faux pas to wear tennis shoes with heels in hand? Personally, I'd break my ankle, so perhaps my lack of coordination prevents me from attempting such a practice. I should comment that it's understandable if some one needs to dress up for business classes, meetings, church, etc. but really... any insight ladies and men? -Sara

Haha Sara, I know what you mean. This weekend at the dance I saw girls struggling walking across the ice and then into the fancy building with the marble floor. I wore my winter boots for outside and brought fancy flats to wear inside the dance. I don't really know why girls suffer through it, but they must find it rewarding somehow if they continue torturing themselves.

Haha, Mickey you are great! You seem to have a real self-assurance about yourself and I love it. You were definitely the smart to wear boots to the dance!
