red shoes


Question Posted Thursday October 4 2007, 5:46 pm

If anyone has seen the Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz adult Halloween costume at iParty, you know what those shoes look like. They're very glitzy, with red sparkles all over them like the Wizard of Oz. Except, it's been mangled into these chunky heels. I say they look like stripper shoes.An acquaintance of mine, I'll call her C, recently bought this costume. The shoes are simply horrid. I have informed her that the shoes are rather stripper-esque but she seems undaunted. My friends joke and giggle about them. I really don't want her to give up the shoes because of what people think, but I really don't think that these shoes are quite... right. Any help?

I'm going to ask you this in the nicest way possible:


Why the fuck do you care what she wears for Halloween?


Her shoes might be stripper-esque, but isn't the point of Halloween to be someone completely different from yourself? People obviously know that she doesn't really dress like that; & Halloween is supposed to be fun. By ragging on her & yelling at her for wearing a certain type of shoe, she's going to be upset, and she won't wanna spend her Halloween with you.


If she doesn't seem to care, well then why do you still bother? Obviously she thinks that the shoes are fine & she doesn't let your stupid worries affect her. I'm pretty sure if you did the same thing, your friend wouldn't give a fuck. So why you do, I have no idea but you probably shouldn't because she doesn't. Let her do what she wants. What she does for Halloween is none of your business. & you're making this a bigger deal than it needs to be.

Well, the best you can do is be honest with your friend. You told her once, and you did your part. You can try telling her one more time and just make a point to say that you are just trying to help her out and don't want others to hurt or upset her on what should be a fun night. Just be supportive to her when/if people do make comments. The good thing is everyone knows it's Halloween and it is a costume; people will know she normally isn't going to parrade around in that. :)
