I walked across the park today in my flats. They slipped and skidded all over the place on the wet grass. At one point there was a slight slope. I slipped so much I thought I wasn't going to get up it. I got there in the end but boy was I slipping a lot.
That sounds like a cool experience! What are your flats like, are they pointy or rounded and what are the bottsom like?
They were slightly pointed toes with smooth hard plastic soles. They were quite new so the soles were still shiny and slippery. I couldn't get any grip at all even though it was only a gentle slope. I left a lot of shiny skid marks on that slope where I slipped so much.
I know rubber soles are available but I hate those. They squeak when I walk along the corridor at work and look awful. The smooth soles are also easier to clean. A quick wipe over and they're like new. The rubber soles hold a lot of dirt and walk it into our house so are not so sensible.

I was wearing heels and was slidding all other the place and got my shoes really muddy.
When we got back to my boyfriend's car he offered to clean the mud off my shoes for me as I had to go back to the office. I told him not to worry as they were only my work shoes, plus it had the added advantage of giving me an excuse to take my shoes off when I returned to the office and spend the afternoon in my stockings feet - bliss!!

I wore my usual stilettos to work as it was fine this morning. By home time it was quite white. I slipped and skidded all over the place getting home.
I didn't fall thank goodness but there were a few close calls.

Hey, pretty much the same thing happened to me too! I went to work in a pair of black stilettos which to be honest, are pretty slippy anyway at the best of times and on my walk home, I was just slipping everywhere! The bottoms are really smooth and shiney and were just impossibly slippy on the snow! I slipped over a couple of times but nothing too bad!
What were your shoes like on the snow, what were the bottoms like?
