Summer Shoe Pledge

Please raise your big toes and repeat after me:
As a member of the Cute Girl Sisterhood, I pledge to follow the rules when I wear 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 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 or sister tells me the toe seam really will stay under my toes if I tuck it in.

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 a discount shoe store for the low, low price of $4.99 even if my feet are small enough to fit into the kid’s sizes. This is out of concern for my safety and that 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 fingers, and that there is not a sandal that makes creepy feet look good.



I will purchase adorable toe rings and anklets because I know they make my feet look marvelous!!

This is my summer shoe pledge to you!

I don't think I can take the pledge. I am soooo guilty of this and don't see myself being able to change.

Hmmm, I haven't seen those things in a while. If anything I see more ankle braclets than toe rings but that is still rare.

yeah - toe rings are a little more common (keep in mind I live in Michigan - our toe exposure season doesn't last that long!) and I actually have one in my jewelry box that I bought when I was in FL once. and a girlfriend of mine wears them all the time in the summer.


but ankle bracelets - I guess the last time I saw one of those, it was smooshed up under some suntan pantyhose...

Yep - I still wear them all summer long..I love toe rings!  As for anklets, no, I havent' worn those since high school.


As for this statement:  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 refuse to go polish free - I hate that!  So I vow to always have polish intact..I'm a freak about that.

detroit, you crack me up. I am old enough to remember that look. I actually have a couple of ankle bracelets and I used to wear them under jeans. It's been a while but I might break them out again (under pants only). I like the idea of no one else knowing that I have it on. *s*

I actually saw someone wearing an ankle bracelet this morning. It was hideous too.

I will do my best to hold myself to the pledge. 


As far as the toe ring issue--I have a really small one that I've worn since high school, I think.  It stays on all year just cuz it's so small I never notice it.

Me three.
And I don't think my toes have been free of polish since I was 5. Seriously.

It's most noticable when you get on the escalator at the mall on a weekend.  You will see a LOT of yellowed crusty looking heels right in front of you...and on women who are younger than you would think!


I don't really wear polish that often, as I like the extremely clean look, but I absolutely hate dark reds or purple polish on toes that is chipped.  ICK!!

I'll join in, now that it's warmer out, and my toes will be exposed more, I'll do a better job at keeping them looking 'nice'. I've worn anklets too, but it's been a while (years), same as toes rings.
