From People StyleWatch Magazine (May 2007): Fashion warriors, rejoice! This
strappy shoe comes in so many styles –  from sporty leathers to deluxe snakeskins — everyone’s a winner.

Yes, You Can Wear Them!
– Consider the size and number of ankle straps.  A single, thin strap is the most flattering.
– You don’t have to bare your legs.  Sure, this style looks great with short shorts, minis and knee-length skirts but also with slim capri or ankle pants.
– Resist the urge to tie them up your calf. It will make your legs appear wider.

Hi, I am 15 years old, and I have 85 pairs of shoes. I am what my mom calls a shoe connoisseur. We recently moved and I packed all my shoes in heavy duty boxes.  There was 16 in all. I made my mom and dad mad because when I marked the boxes I wrote CAUTION EXTREMELY FRAGILE HANDLE WITH CARE.  After they loaded the boxes carefully they asked what was in them that was so fragile they thought it was my ps2  or special stuff I’d saved. They were really ticked to have carried them them so gently. But hey I clean each of my shoes by hand everytime I wear them. ~ Trevor, NE

Trevor’s Favorite Shoes are Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Hi Tops available from Amazon.com

My friend Penny loves leopard print, so I had to show her these shoes I found.  Then I had to pick her up from the floor once she saw the price! I cannot imagine spending $484.95 on a pair or shoes, even if they are Cesare Paciotti.

Available from Zappos.com… Wild and sexy, these Cesare Paciotti leopard print pumps will get plenty of attention. Printed silk upper with leather trim and heel quarter. Peep toe. Leather lined. Leather sole. 3 3/4 heel.

Every week at our Kiwanis gatherings, we play a fun trivia game of sorts.  Last week, the question was “How many things can you name that start with the letter “S” that you put on your feet?”  And can you believe I didn’t win?!  Here’s the things we came up with…

Shoes, Socks, Sandals, Sneakers, Slippers, Skis, Skates, Snowboots, Slides, Stilts, Stockings, Stir-ups, Skechers

Can you think of any others?  Then I read this “P” quote from Heather Hannan of Macy’s Department Store that I wanted to share…

“There are six P’s to follow when shopping for new shoes this season: peep toe, platform, patent leather, polka dots, primary colors and prints.”

Yes! It’s warm out and time to start golfing! Darling Shoes brings you the hottest new gift for golf lovers (and their children).

Have you/do you own a pair of MBT (Masai Barefoot Technology) Footwear but rarely use them? I want to hear your thoughts!

I am conducting research for a footwear project and I am reaching out to customers who have owned MBTs, but have discontinued/limited their use of the shoes to once every 6 months or less. 

Specifically I am interested in learning about why you discontinued/limited your use of your MBTs and how your expectations of MBTs differed from your experience.

If you would be willing to talk to me for ~20 minutes before Tuesday, May 1, I can offer you a $50 gift certificate to Amazon.com or a donation to charity for compensation. 

If you are interested in speaking to me, please email me at footwear@parthenon.com to set up a time. ~ Katherine

I decided I need to make a pact that if I buy a new pair of shoes, I should get rid of a different pair so that my closet does not runneth over with shoes. Maybe I’ll start that next week.  Or the week after.  Here’s the shoes I bought this week while in Denver…

Tommy Hilfiger Brown Slides

Aerosoles Stretch Slides

Of course, my daughters, who all inherited my shoeaholicism, tend to get jealous when I buy only myself new shoes, so I brought them home each a new pair as well… (and the best part is that the I can fit into the twins’ sizes!)
