Oh-MY-GOSH! I am soo embaressed! But before reading, be sure not to laugh too hard or even imagine it happening! LOL... Today I went out and got some shopping done, the weather is BEAUTIFUL out and figured I would wear some "summery" clothes rather than wearing the dull sweatshirt, jeans, and Nike's! So I wore a long black maxi skirt, a t-shirt and some high heel sandals, Now, as I am walking im praying that I dont slip and fall, I even had time to do my hair and makeup! As I am walking through the cross walk at our local grocery store, cars stopped at stop sign, and what do ya know, I freaking slipped and fell! I think my skirt even flew up! I'm soo embaressed! And what do I do? I jump back up and tried to act like nothing happened even though it was right in front of the darn cars that were stopping at the stop sign! I feel like a goof ball! I guess thats why I just stick with the gym shoes rather than heels! Stupid heels! I dont even need them! Has anything like this ever happened to you? I cant even laugh about it! I just hope nobody I know seen me! And now to top it off, my rear is aching me too! lol...I guess I somewhat feel better letting you guys know and told somebody! What an embaressing moment! LOL..
Thanks ladies! And yes, thank god I was wearing undies! LOL! So I guess im not the only one eh! Lol.... Gosh, I also rember maybe like 3 years ago, our youngest was only 1 years old and it was around the holidays and we were going by my in laws :) and so I really didnt have time to doll myself up or even comb my hair out because I was still trying to adjust to taking care of three children, so that day I did my hair and make-up , wore dress pants and a pretty top, jewelry and all...As I was walking out trying to catch my husbands attention I was holding a bag of homemade soup for my FIL and some homemade cookies, I was wearing really high heels and slipped on the darn stairs! My back landed on the edge part of the stairs so I was in alot of pain, to top it off, I had soup in my hair and all over my top! But on the bright side, I have never seen my hubby run that fast! He came and helped me up...the only reason why I slipped on the garage stairs(besides the high heels) is because the previous owners to this house painted the garage floor so it's very shiny and smooth. My goodness, the things we go through as women! LOL... I love all of the responses! Thank you all soo much!
I once saw a woman walking with who I assumed was a date in a tube top. Only one side of the tube was below her nipple. I was too stunned to say anything and it was in a crowded place. I lost sight of her quickly.
I'm just saying'......... could have been worse!
It's OK! Better than sashsaying through a restaurant and across the street only to have your friend tell you you're skirt is tucked into your underwear. This has happened to me, along with a bunch of other stuff, including falling in a crosswalk lol
As long as you weren't going commando or wearing a thong, you don't have to be too embarassed. If you were doing either of those things, then you may want to hope no one you know saw you...or worse, caught it on their cell phone video and posted it to youtube.
I walked out of Costco, which is part of the mall. I start to go into the mall and walked right into the plate glass window.
While in college during RUSH I did the same thing, onlly I ran into a street sign in front of the Pi Phi house. In front of ll the active gorls and my Rush group. I had to do the rest of Rush with a huge bruise on my forehead.
I can't even telll you how many poles have jumped into the side of my van.
.
Hope you're OK and it is only the ego that was bruised today
I think it hurts our ego more than anything! I take spills pretty often, my husband always jokes that he's going to install fall hazard appliances around the house. I recently injured my knee falling in the garage. At work several months ago I fell out of the elevator. LOL! I don't even get embarrassed about it any more, I just laugh. It sucks though that you got all dolled up just to feel like a goofball! Hopefully you still feel pretty :)
This SAME exact thing happened to me at high school. I was trying to look all cute in my long black slinky skirt since my boyfriend had just broken up with me the day before. I slipped on my heels and feel the same exact way you did... right in front of my new ex and his friends. I think I spent like an hour in the bathroom crying :(
At least you looked good!!
I've had that happen to me too but it was at work. It was one of the first nice days of Spring so I had on sandals that just had a strap across the toes. I was walking in and somehow the shoe flipped sideways and I fell face first on the ground..lol! Since it was nice out, there were about 10 guys sitting outside. At first, they all asked if I was OK, then once I made it through the door, I heard them all bust out laughing. I was SO embarassed.
I think it's happened to all of us at one time or another.
Same thing happened to me at the neighborhood BBQ. Wonder if everyone thinks I'm the town drunk? Nope -- just naturally unbalanced, I guess! Awkward!
Sorry it never happened to me...I'm a pagent girl, but still hate heels. But, I hope you are all right. You could have twisted a n ankle.
I was attending a winter wedding with my husband (then boyfriend). We were running a bit late so we were rushing a bit. My heels slipped on ice and I went down, hard. I am now teary, wet, muddy and embarrassed. Did I mention we were late? We finally walked in just as the bride is coming out to walk down the aisle. She asks if I'm ok. Then sends me to the ladies room to get myself together. She WAITED for me to sit down to start her wedding.
My husband and I were walking into a mall entranceway (again before we were married). It was winter again. The floor was slippery and my feet slipped right out from under me. I landed on my rear looking up at my boyfriend on all of 2 weeks. I was embarrassed. It's amazing that he married me! ;)
i busted in front of our bank the day after thanksgiving so of course it was super crowded. I busted in my damn nikes so excuse there but what super sucked about it, my husband and my kids spread like wildfire after they caught their breaths from laughing, they came back. By that time I already picked myself up. Great! Thanks y'all :(
Oh gosh you poor thing.
At least you were dressed real cute.
I have... tripped and fallen, just while barefoot.
Or, while wearing just flip flops.
My Husband says I am clumsy.
Oh well.
I call them gravity storms.
Yes.
If they have a "name"... that tells you something, no?
