I can't believe I never questioned that. Maybe she got blisters from high heels and decided to cover her feet with vaseline to prevent them, but it made it too slippy instead ...!
I shared this question in online training room. No great answers honestly so I asked chat gpt ;) Here's what ole chatty had to say - and I'm not buying it.
"The reason her shoe falls off in some versions of the story is typically attributed to the magical spell wearing off at midnight. In the most common version, Cinderella's fairy godmother warns her that the enchantment will only last until midnight. When the clock strikes twelve, the magic fades, causing her beautiful gown to turn back into rags, the pumpkin carriage to become a pumpkin again, and her glass slippers to revert to their original state. As the magic dissipates, her shoe slips off her foot and is left behind as she hurries to leave the royal ball, marking the beginning of her transformation back into her ordinary life.
So, in short, the shoe fell off because the magical enchantment that had kept it in place and allowed it to fit perfectly wore off at midnight." ~ chat gpt
Too much foot lotion?
ReplyDeleteLOL now that made me laugh :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a fairytaletastic week 👍

A question I've pondered too.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday, my friend. ♥
Too true Rosey ... funny to think about - made me smile - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteThese are the kinds of deep thoughts that I often have. I'm glad to know I'm not alone!
ReplyDeleteI have always wondered about this, actually. When I was a kid, the first thing I said was, "I thought it was supposed to fit her?"
ReplyDeleteThat always gets me. I just tell myself the Fairy Godmother made it happen on purpose so Cinderella could find her forever love.
ReplyDeleteGood question!
ReplyDeleteThe dinosaur is right.
ReplyDeleteCinderella story is incomplete with that scene.
ReplyDeleteGood point. I hadn't considered that.
ReplyDeleteThat is one wise dinosaur!
ReplyDeleteGreat food for thought!
Hugs and blessings, Rosey

He's got a point! Very good question.
ReplyDeleteLol this is funny but good question.
ReplyDeleteHahaha! My daughter said ' You've ruined my childhood' hahaha.
ReplyDeleteI never thought of that.
ReplyDeleteHaha this is a funny one! Thanks for sharing this
ReplyDeleteInteresting thought. Maybe because she was running away. Who knows?
ReplyDeleteI had not ever thought of that.
ReplyDeleteNow that is an interesting question. We can only guess. Perhaps her foot was sweaty from dancing to long
ReplyDeleteLOL I just realized this after so many years watching Cinderella.
ReplyDeletelmao I would answer if she was my gf because she would tell me after lol Good question though
ReplyDeleteMaybe her feet were sweaty. I mean, is a glass slipper even breathable? Probably not LOL
