Shoe Art


In a world so full of beauty and vibrance, why let your wardrobe fade into darkness?  Every piece in your closet should speak with excitement and joy.  Who has the loudest voice?  The shoe, of course.

A fabulous pair of shoes can transform your entire look, right down to the soul.  That Dolce dress may be something fierce, but pair it with cheap flip-flops and you are going to have a serious problem.  On the other hand, I am completely sure that a Manolo could make a potato sack look sexy.  Not that I am suggesting a potato sack as an acceptable garment, of course.

What makes a pair of shoes great?  Distinction, quality and sex appeal.  This season, designers are doing incredible things with footwear.  Many shoes even appear to have been taken from a great art museum.  Let us begin with “The Emperor”.  Design legend, Valentino has an amazing Sculpture Lace Pump, adorned with delicate, shining crystals.  The shoe has a beautiful lace overlay that seems to come alive as it dances around the ankle.  Currently, the shoe can be found at Neiman Marcus, for a little less than $5,000.

Looking to draw some foot attention without becoming homeless?  Pick up the Kathy Holiday Peep Toe from Forever 21.  In brilliant, attention grabbing turquoise, the shimmering satin features a feminine bow and 4.5” covered heel.  Pair this shoe with a vibrant, floral dress and you could not look more alive.  At around $20, you can even afford a cute clutch to bring along.

Whether you choose pricey and lacy or budget-friendly satin, make sure that your shoes make a statement!  A cute dress and smoky eyes will do wonders, but the shoe is a deal breaker.  The heel should be as high as you can manage, the color vibrant, and the details flawless.  Now to perfect that walk, and you are ready for those shoes!
