I picked up
this book yesterday thinking it was a follow up to Morton’s
How to Walk
in High Heels -The Girl’s Guide to Everything (2005) and
A Year
in High Heels (2008). I realised when I got home that
A Girl for All
Seasons is just a gold-covered edition of the pink-covered version of
A
Year in High Heels. I adored these
two books of Morton, yes, I did! In my happy bachelorette life, these were my
manuals to walking through life with aplomb, chutzpah, and style – in stilettos.
Thumbing
through A Girl for All Seasons reminded me of my foibles, impetuousness,
and frivolity during those heady days. All these years, I’ve kept the two pink
volumes – not a mean feat as I have moved apartments/homes at least 10 times
since then.
I’d like to think I’m more grounded now - literally and figuratively - darting around
most days either in my white sneakers or my reliable Merrells.
