Once upon a time, a long time ago, there was a girl named Lily who loved fashion. She loved to buy new clothes and shoes every chance she got. One day, she saw a beautiful pair of shoes in the store and fell in love with them. They were the latest fashion and she just had to have them.

She bought the shoes without trying them on and was so excited to wear them. But when she put them on, she found that they were very uncomfortable. She tried to walk in them, but it was difficult and painful. She was so disappointed because she wanted to look fashionable.

Lily realized that she had made a mistake by not trying the shoes on before she bought them. She learned that it was more important to be comfortable than to look fashionable. She decided to wear her old shoes, even though they were not the latest fashion, because they were comfortable.

From that day on, Lily made sure to always try on shoes before she bought them. She found that she was much happier wearing comfortable shoes and that she still looked fashionable. She was glad that she had learned this lesson and promised to always remember it.

The end.
