I have to be comfy now I’m 40!

In case you haven’t noticed..I’m now 40!

When I was in my early twenties, I found it hard to imagine where I would be and what I would be doing once you hit that big age landmark.

What I didn’t bargain for was having three boys and a step-daughter and be running a business while juggling everything that life throws at us! I also didn’t think I’d have to wear comfy shoes!

I remember tottering around the town in the highest of heels, ignoring the blisters forming on my feet. I also remember walking around London in clogs (remember that brief fashion come-back in the 90’s?) in agony…but hey…it’s all for the sake of fashion.

But not anymore. I need flat, comfy, pushing toddlers in shopping trolleys around Sainsbury’s style shoes.

So you can imagine my excitment when I found out I’d been chosen to review a pair of ‘Hotter’ shoes.

I chose a gorgeous pair of red flats which I was sure would look great with some skinny jeans.

I could hardly breathe when they arrived! Ok…that’s maybe a small exaggeration…but wouldn’t you be just a little excited about getting some fabulous free shoes?

It felt like getting an early birthday present and as I put them on I did a little skip around the kitchen. The kids were of course, looking at me like I was mad! But the shoes were just so comfy…I mean REALLY comfy.

That day we all went to Birmingham and went for a really long walk around the shops. My step-daughter thought they looked a bit old fashioned, but then she is only 8!

When we got home my feet felt great, not sore or achey…and I’m not just saying this!

So, that’s it. I’m now a convert to Hotter shoes, though the heels will still come out occasionally, so long as I can sit down!
