I have to disagree about what to do in the event of losing half the Blahnik pair--because after all, a single shoe makes an excellent weapon. Always good to have something like that handy.
Yes, cry the single, beautiful tear. Definitely no blubbering and slobbering and blowing your nose...
That never looks good.
Yes, but what to do when one loses a robotNIK?
indeed. never fling anything you can pawn, or at the very least return. i know a girl who flung her diamond at a less than honorable intended, only to scour the floor with a manifying glass later. which brings me to a point maccers forgot to mention. never fling items unless you can be certain of relatively easy post-rage retreivl -- for pawning or whathaveyou.
How do you lose a shoe? Aside from being hammered and comatose in the gutter I mean? Did it just disappear?
Is this something that only women respond knowledgably to?
Example: I once "lost" a Dr. Martens boot whilst attempting to swim the flooded river Severn, the result of a massively inadvisable drunken bet. The boot was new too, which made matters worse.
This is entirely understandable, isn't it - drunk + swimming = lost boot.
But for a Blahnik to 'disappear' takes, well, some skill I guess...
The fact that you put yourself in a position to risk the loss of said Blahnik is enough to get you thrown out of Manolos Anonymous.
It was an extreme example. I have never lost a Blahnik, there are no scars on my wrist.
I have lost single shoes though. A dingo ran away with one once, Eurotrash once also lost a very "sensible" sandal of mine during the black out last year and I think my cleaning lady occaisionally throws away one of my less worn pairs of ridiculous non-Blahniks every once in a while, say when I forget she likes the FOAM scrubbing bubbles instead of the other type I buy when I can't be arsed.
It kills me every time though. Absence is absence when you drink to forget. It's just that the always something there to remind me thing that kills me when I notice it.
When I was 13, I lost a single Converse at a hardcore show at City Gardens in Trenton (oy). That would have been 1984. Oy.
Yes, you can lose just one shoe. I managed to somehow do it last weekend - my favourite pair too, mind you - and now its mate rests on the floor of my bedroom, taunting me.
