Michelle Obama Let a Guest at the White House Take Off Her Heels Because They Hurt Too Much
As any heel-wearer can attest, even the very best pair of heels can turn into medieval, torture-like devices when they’re worn for too long. Michelle Obama knows this. Or, at least, she sympathizes with the pain that comes from squeezing into narrow shoes and walking around on the balls of our feet for hours on end. That’s what we can deduce from a little anecdote courtesy of Sara Blakely, the founder of Spanx. Blakely recalled to Footwear News how when she was a guest at the White House, FLOTUS allowed her to take off her heels after she expressed how much pain she was in.
Obama said you can take them off.’” Blakely had to carry her Christian Louboutins in her hands for the rest of the night, but she was happy to share the moment.“The first lady and I bonded over sore feet,” she said.
We’re not sure if this is a first for a guest at the White House, but we can only imagine that FLOTUS knows the struggle. Though, given her affinity for kitten heels, she probably has learned how many high a heel is too high for her meet-and-greets.
