> The Open Toed Shoe Pledge
> As a member of the Cute Girl Sisterhood,
>I pledge to follow the Rules when wearing sandals and other open-toe
>shoes:
>
> I promise to always wear sandals that
>fit. My toes will not hang over and touch the ground, nor will my heels
>spill over the backs. And the sides and tops of my feet will not pudge
>out between the straps.
>
> I will go polish-free or vow to keep the
>polish fresh, intact and chip-free.
>
> I will not cheat and just touch up my
>big toe.
>
> I will sand down any mounds of skin
>before they turn hard and yellow.
>
> I will shave the hairs off my big toe.
>
> I won't wear pantyhose even if my
>misinformed girlfriend, coworker, mother, sister tells me the toe seam
>really will stay under my toes if I tuck it there.
>
> If a strap breaks, I won't duct-tape,
>pin, glue or tuck it back into place hoping it will stay put. I will
Get
>my shoe fixed or toss it.
>
> I will not live in corn denial; rather I
>will lean on my good friend Dr. Scholl's if my feet need him.
>
> I will resist the urge to buy jelly
>shoes at Payless for the low, low price of $4.99 even if my feet are
>small enough to fit into the kids' sizes. This is out of concern for my
>safety, and the safety of others. No one can walk properly when
Standing
>in a pool of sweat and I would hate to take someone down with me as I
>fall and break my ankle.
>
> I will take my toe ring off toward the
>end of the day if my toes swell and begin to look like Vienna sausages.
>
> I will be brutally honest with my
>girlfriend/sister/coworker when she asks me if her feet are too ugly to
>wear sandals. Someone has to tell her that her toes are as long as my
>fingers and no sandal makes creepy feet look good.
>
> I will promise if I wear flip flops that
>I will ensure that they actually flip and flop, making the correct
Noise
>while walking and I will swear NOT to slide or drag my feet while
>wearing them.
>
> I will promise to go to my local nail
>salon at least once per season and have a real pedicure (they are about
>$15 or 20 and worth EVERY penny).
>
> I will promise to throw away any
>white/off-white sandals that show signs of wear... nothing is tackier
>than dirty white sandals.
