Clothes for your feet...

This is 'a celebration of pumps, sandals, slippers and more'! Shoes are fabulous and should be celebrated more often. Well in our current time, they are, and by the dozen. Two of the largest (in size and fame) department stores in London have recently opened a heaven of shoes for the world to gore at. Selfridges and Co in Oxford street have their extravagant 'Shoe Gallery' which is not only the largest place in the WORLD to hold THAT many shoes, but also, in my eyes anyway, it is giving shoes a right of place. Fame. And beauty. Then Harrods joined on the WE LOVE SHOES band wagon and invented their 'Shoe Salon'. In the March 2011 Vogue, the 'Shoe Salon' is advertised by the most marvelous picture! An 'Exclusively at Harrods by Christian Louboutin' shoe embellished decadently and beautiful displayed in a glass case with butterflies. How shoes should always be displayed. All little girls grow up believing that Cinderellas glass slipper could transform there lives, and foot wear forever. Woman's early history, shoes were hidden, under all of their petticoats and crinolines. A crime. A pair of new shoes 'might not cure a broken heart or soothe a tension headache', writes fashion critic Holly Brubach, but they will relieve the symptoms and chase away the blues.' Even though, as i have been a victim of all of those things, a beautiful pair of shoes can help a world of sins.
