When you think about it, slippers are everywhere! Ubiquitous throughout life, popping up left right and centre! So it got me thinking, about our collective childhoods. When was the first time this seven letter word entered our collective psyche?
It all started with Cinderella! Now, we all know the story. A beautiful princess, caged by evil, who's life changes dramatically when the glass SLIPPER fits!
In hindsight, the glass slipper resembles more of a wedged pair of heels, yet 'the glass heel' doesn't quite throw up that nostalgic warmth 'slipper' does. And so let us not corrupt the story and appreciate the magic of that glass slipper.
More slipper memories to come, stay tuned!
