Who, Me?! Obsessed?!
What is it with women and shoes anyway?! While I hate to admit it, this is one stereotype that is pretty spot on. And, I may add, not a bad thing!! I may be on the extreme end of the spectrum, as I’m in “the biz” and all, but even my sisters in arms who can count their pairs on one hand will agree- there is no joy in shopping quite like a brand new pair of shoes. You spy them on the shelf, and your breath quickens. You pick them up and turn them over in your hands as a nervous smile starts to creep onto your face. Waiting for the salesperson to bring your size is agony. Then the moment arrives when you slip your foot into the shoe, and all is right with the world. For some women it is in finding the perfect, comfy flat. For others it is the bedazzled sky high stiletto. Or a suede wedge. Or a patterned pump. Or a flat, knee high boot with a buckle in the perfect shade of Bordeaux that will look soooo good with that old pair of jeans/skirt/mini dress in the back of the closet! Or…ahem… all of the above. Shoes don’t care that the daily trip to the gym has been replaced with the daily trip to the bakery, they still fit, and they still look spectacular! So let’s celebrate our (healthy and completely normal) obsession with our footwear. Let us bathe in the beauty of our boots! Let us bask in the shine of our stilettos! Let us frolic in the fabulosity of our flats! Say it with me now…shoes…shoes…Shoes…Shoes…SHOES…SHOES!
