I spent years so
self-conscious about my super long toes that I wore closed-toed shoes all
the time, even in the summer—in Texas! Now that I’ve stopped that
silliness, I not only show my tootsies, I sport lots of sparkling
foot-jewelry. And, shockingly enough, I’m regularly told, “You have the
cutest feet.” (Really, though, it’s the toe rings.) Through my regular yoga
practice, I began “seeing” my feet on a regular basis, and thinking they
weren’t so bad, and that in fact, if I gave them a little love it might be a
prettier site in Downward Dog!
At the same time, I was going through some
life challenges. One day while getting a pedicure, I noticed the woman next
to me was wearing fitted toe rings. I thought they looked like fun, and a
great little pick-me-up. Fitted toe rings were not easy to find, but once I
did, I became addicted to them. Others began stopping me to ask where I got
them, and eventually Barefoot Bling
was born. And to think it all blossomed
from one chance encounter.
