I often bitch and moan about women who can't walk in heels. It bothers the shit out of me.
I understand that not all women wear heels all the time, and I don't expect it. Though there are some times when heels are almost necessary. Prom, weddings...giant award shows like the Golden Globes. And during those times it is of the utmost importance that you know how to walk in heels.
Tonight during the Golden Globes Lena Dunham, writer of Girls, embarrassed herself and women everywhere when she stumbled and cow-walked her way up to the stage to accept two Golden Globes.
It's seriously one of the most awkward things I've ever seen. If she didn't aggravate me so much, I would have felt bad for her. (Yeah, sorry world, she's not funny).
You would think that she would have given her new heels a stroll before she got into her old prom dress (sorry Zac Posen) and got into a cab to go to the awards show.
Instead she embarrassed herself by apparently walking in heels for the first time ever in her life when her name was called for an award.
I'm not sure if she did the red carpet in those heels, but if so I'm glad I missed it because it would have been a painful, horrifying thing to watch.
Ladies, don't let this happen to you. Either wear flats with your gown (no one will ever know), or learn how to walk before you leave the house. There is no half-assing your way through life if you're wearing big girl shoes.
Did she actually walk the red carpet or just lurch along? |

I'm not picking on you, but I do think the dialogue surrounding this is disgusting. Conversations like this are just so awful for women.
All I'm saying is, regardless of gender, if you're going to be on a red carpet (and potentially a stage) during a televised event, then make sure you can move in your clothes.
