... slip of a slipper ...

Finally got round to wearing that pair of Carlo Rino open-toed-black-formal-slippers-like black low-heeled shows which my mom bought some time ago but couldn't wear as it nearly-maimed her foot and was passed on to me and eventually brought over to London.

Since I didn't have proper summer footwear, I tried these out on a brief trip to Covent Garden and the nearest Sainsbury's for groceries.



And it broke on the way back. First time I ever wore it, and less than 2 hours at that.



Had to shuffle around to make it to Sainsbury's 15 minutes before they close, dragging-broken-slipper-shopping while waiting for CE to kindly go back and grab me some wearable flats.




Those slippers weren't cheap either.


*sigh*
