Did You See Me Slip?
Approximate location of the below-mentioned incident.
Ah well, I might as well “spill” it.
Saturday night, ya know, during that mad rainstorm, I met a friend at the Fontaine St. Michel. As the water was pouring down through the awning we were standing under we decided to make a run for a cafe around the corner as soon as the rain lightened up.
It did. We ran.
About three quarters around the fountain I realized I was taking the corner too sharp in my kitten heels (with water gushing inside them as well, mind you) and promptly my legs slid out under me to the right. I landed with my entire left side in a puddle, my bag was in a puddle as well. I jumped up (or at least I remember it being fast) and hobbled after my friend who, wearing sensible shoes, managed the corner better than the Cool Running team.
While I was worried (or rather hoping) that I’d get a mad bruise, I was also very conscious that I had just applied water-soluble liquid eyeliner 30 minutes before, which, in the rain, and following the spill was rushing down my face like hhmm, the water in the St. Michel fountain. I looked like a wet raccoon.
Didn’t ya hear, that’s the hottest new thing straight from Fashion Week.
