The Bata Shoes, Comfortable Interview Partner, ready to be worn or upcycled, your inspiration

I cannot remember when I purchase those pumps.
I remember to have worn them for job interviews
They are associated with feelings of awkwardness and being tight in a suit.
Once their deed was done, they were back into the cupboard.
I must say they are terribly comfortable.
I could keep them for the comfort.
The knowing that I have some shoes for my next interview.

Shall  I keep them for comfort?
Shall I keep them for the next awkward interview in a suit?

I have great comfort with the shoes I currently wear every single day.
I am planning to have job interviews wearing comfortable clothes and no heels.

A decision has been made.

I have been thinking to maybe transformed them so I could keep them for longer.
There are so many ways to embellish a pair of shoes
Yet, I thought, I have already working on one art practice at the moment

So here it is, in the spirit of transformation - some pair of shoes for you

You may learn something. if you are too busy with your own thoughts, you will not even realise what was said. You will probably misinterpret some important signal.
