I was asked that question this morning.
You see, I bought two pairs of stilettos yesterday. Same design: open toe with ribbon design, slingback. I really didn't have plans of shopping. I attended a friend's party and then was asked by another friend to accompany her to the mall and buy some office shoes.
What woman will say no to shopping? I went with her. Looked around, found a neat stiletto, open-toe, 3-inch high, in black with red edging. It was so sultry, sexy and very comfortable to boot. But then they don't have my size.
So we transferred to another mall and this time we went straight to the same brand's corner and went to look for the same style. It wasn't there. Nada. Not available. I didn't really feel bad. But would be nice to find the same design there and finally find my size. Not for me I said to myself.
So I just helped my friend look for hers. While doing that, I saw this suede black stilettos with cute (as in!) red ribbons. Right there and then, I fell for it. There were other colors to get, but I decided on the black and red; and brown and pink combination. Other colors were blue, brown and beige but the store carried broken sizes. Tough luck! But then I only wanted the two pairs anyway.
So what am I getting at here? That you are bound to get what you are bound to get. And most of the time, it will exceed your expectations. Far, far beyond it. All you got to do is be ready and wait.
And what can a stiletto do for me? In aid of what; as my friend asked this morning. My answer was: in aid of sensuality. 
It's a woman thing.
A stiletto makes me feel good. Makes me want to go clubbing. Makes me feel so sexy. Makes my legs look longer and slimmer. It gives me rhythm. And having rhythm can aid one in finding her balance. Ok, before I get profound here, I am just happy owning these pairs of beauty. I am justifying my unscheduled purchase!!!
I wore my stiletto this morning and danced--alone. Hahahaha. That was enough to make my day.
Life is beautiful. Be happy!
