Balanced

Today was budget day in Saskatchewan. My Finance Minister delivered a balanced budget - cool.

For the traditional pre-budget shoe purchase, he went with a pair of black, $139 New Balance running shoes - lame.

I spent a good part of my morning wishing I was the Finance Minister so the media would do a story about me buying shoes. I spent the rest of my morning deciding what kind of shoes I would buy for my first budget as the Finance Minister.

I'd go with some smart and serious Kenneth Cole's. Designer, yet not atrociously priced. We are in a recession, after all, fiscal responsibility, blah, blah, blah. Maybe a mixture of a grey tweed and a hint of patent. A high-heel mary-jane kinda look. Fabulous!

If ANYONE out there still looks at this lonely blog that I so infrequently touch, tell me what kind of shoes you would sport to deliver your budget.

Hi Miss Donna,

If I was delivering a budget (who am I kidding I can't balance my chequing account never mind ever dream of delivering a civil budget) but for the sake of a shoe discussion my choice would be a Steve Madden black platform mary jane or maybe (depending on the weather) a gladiator-type sandal.

Cheers Lisa

If I was delivering a budget, I would be dropping off the copy my husband forgot at home. I would be wearing flip-flops or crocs. I know crocs make me look like a jack-ass, but dang, they feel good on m'feets.
