The Fluffy Blonde needs new shoes because she is attending a formal dinner with very proper dignitaries.  The Playboy has just come back from a business trip.  His father has sprung this dinner thingy on him.  Maybe he was feeling tired or jet lagged, but because Fluffy was there when dinner was sprung, Fluffy now has to go with him.  Maybe he was thinking that if he had to be all stiff and polite, Fluffy can learn a thing or two.  He even couriered a beautiful dress.

Alexander McQueen Evening Dress

Fluffy was at work at the coffee house when the courier arrived.  A bit of drama there when the other Baristas saw what was in the box.  Now everyone at work knows of the non-Romance.  The dress fitted fine (a bit tight admittedly, so Fluffy must live on egg whites for the whole week), but needed to be adjusted in length.  Fluffy must heave a heavy sigh here, since that is always the case.

Alexander McQueen Silver Skull Clutch

To match the dress, Fluffy will be using a firm favourite – an Alexander McQueen evening bag.  Its pewter in colour so matches almost everything, including Fluffy’s platinum and diamond earrings, necklace and rings.  The jewellery is not new, gifts from various members of the Playboy’s family for special occasions.

Fluffy is in a ditz.  Dress – check. Evening bag – check.  Shoes – aaargh!

Keep Calm and Buy Shoes

When in doubt, do research.  What would life be without Google?  Anyway, there’s an article “Buy Shoes that Fit Every Time” by Wade Meredith.  The article is old, but it is still relevant.  It was meant to advice readers how to buy running shoes, but hey, shoes are shoes.  Fluffy just needs to find shoes that bling, matches the dress and the evening bag.  The easiest way is to get shoes in the same colour as the bag, failing which, shoes the same colour as the dress.  Shoes the same colour as the dress is a bit boring though, so Fluffy is determined to get a pewter coloured, blingy shoes with sky high heels so as not to be towered over by the Playboy.

Fluffy went shoe shopping pin the afternoon, since the article said to try on shoes in the afternoon when “your feet are fattest”.  Well, Fluffy is at the fattest no matter the time, but still, maybe there’s some sense there.

Ta-da!  Fluffy’s new shoes…
