Go right ahead and click on this link and read the last paragraph. Remember those SHOES - well I bought a pair - sort of. I did not buy the tennis shoes that are supposed to remove cellulite from your thighs, but a style of the shape ups that are called sleek fit.
It all started with a conversation....
In telling my friend about this, I mentioned a pair of sandal shoes that the lead character of The Closer wore to a crime scene. SHE (the police detective) always wears pumps, except at least that one time when she changed into more practical shoes. I do not own pumps. Anyway, I described the shoes and my friend thought they were Alegrias and sent me off to the Alegria store in Winston Salem.
The shoes, lowest price $99.99, are comfortable and high quality, but they run big. The ones that I liked the most did not fit. Either way, my friend had an online discount code so I went home to try my luck searching for them on line.
Stubborn me still thought that the shoes Brenda wore were not Alegria. IN fact - they WERE those Skecher shape ups. More searching - (looking for discounts) and I found a pair, only one pair in my size - black. They were 59$, free shipping.
So now they are here and they ARE super cushiony. I wore them around the house - so far. Many people do not like them. I am hoping they will be cute with my dressy "teaching" clothes. If it weren't for teaching I would be wearing my old running shoes to walk across campus (as I do on most days).
But here is the bigger thing. Those crazy Skecher people give you a DVD with the shoes. The DVD is a ‘shape up’ shoe workout and it is ridiculous - just like I said in that blog post I sent you to - crazy - unfounded - madness. Just walk already.

My favorite performance shoe that looks like a dress shoe is made by Merrill. They look like Mary Janes--but feel and walk like an athletic shoe. Not cheap--$89, but worth every penny.
