Try walking in my shoes
My favorite Globe business writer, the stylish Jenn Abelson, just forwarded me an e-mail from the online shoe retailer Endless.com. The company reports that it is seeing a sharp rise in the number of flats and wedges being purchased by Boston shoppers. Now that people are biking and walking to work more due to rising gas prices and concerns about the environment, it seems they no longer want to schlep across town in spike heels or ride a bicycle in stilettos. Something tells me that Sarah Jessica Parker will not be happy about this trend.
