“I Wore Two Different Shoes to Work”

Dear Infinity,

This morning was chaos: my toddler wouldn’t wear pants, the baby spit up on me (twice), and I still somehow made it out the door on time… only to realize I wore one black heel and one navy flat.

I work in an office. With adults. I’m not even sure anyone noticed, but I feel like a walking cry for help.

How do you hold it all together without falling apart?

Dear Mismatch,

First of all, you did make it out the door — that alone deserves applause, a trophy, and maybe a parade.

Let me be real with you: anyone who sees a woman with mismatched shoes and judges her has clearly never lived the morning mayhem of motherhood.

You’re not falling apart — you’re holding everything together with love, caffeine, and sheer will. That’s not failure. That’s superpower energy.

Next time, own it like a fashion statement. You just started a trend.

One shoe on your side,

Infinity
