*018 - new pointe shoes!

Spanking new pointes! Serenades, because they didn’t have my size in Suprima Strong. Thanks to my hideously monstrous bunions, I require pointe shoes in the largest width available, and pretty tapered shoes like Capezios are truly out of the question for me.



Yup, pre-ribboned and pre-crocheted (and pre-broken in and pre-dirtied), because I couldn’t resist. Shall break into them once I sew on the ribbons (:

Strangely, they seem to already have a pretty decent arch (for a new pair of pointe shoes) even though I’ve barely even touched them – I’ve only put them on for a minute in Sonata and another minute to take the photo, haha. Let’s just hope these stay nice and firm. My previous pairs are all break-ankle-soft already.

... Ok, back to capacitance or homeostasis or power series or halogen derivatives or one of the trillions of topics I have yet to touch.
